Hi,
I've been able to automate building an index for each individual help
plugin, but my approach involves creating a the plugin unpacked (as a
directory rather than a jar file) and then launching Eclipse to call
antRunner,
Each help plugin has a build.xml file that looks like this:
<project name="IDL Analyst" default="build.index" basedir="." >
<target name="build.index" if="eclipse.running">
<eclipse.refreshLocal resource="${basedir}" depth="infinite" />
<help.buildHelpIndex manifest="${basedir}/plugin.xml"
destination="${basedir}"/>
</target>
</project>
I then invoke Eclipse using a Windows batch file. You say you don't want
to use a complete Eclipse installation or an Eclipse project -- why is
that? Or am I misunderstanding what you're looking for?
Here's the batch file I use, in all its un-cleaned-up glory. It'd be
easy enough to rewrite as a shell script, but we do our builds on a
Windows system. (Watch out for spurious line breaks in the below.)
Best of luck,
Doug
