[WikiText] How to add author and copright information to DocBook output [message #69232]

Hi,

I would like to add copyright and author information to my DocBook
output, like this:

<bookinfo>
<releaseinfo>Version 4.3.1</releaseinfo>
<pubdate>2008-12-15</pubdate>
<authorgroup>
<author>
<firstname>Peter</firstname>
<surname>Friese</surname>
</author>
<author>
<firstname>John</firstname>
<surname>Doe</surname>
</author>
</authorgroup>
<legalnotice>
<para>Copies of this document may be made for your own use and for
distribution to others, provided that you do
not charge any fee for such copies and further provided that each
copy contains this Copyright Notice,
whether distributed in print or electronically.</para>
</legalnotice>
</bookinfo>

As far as I understand the code in
org.eclipse.mylyn.wikitext.core.parser.util.MarkupToDocbook. parse(String),
I can define the book title (e.g. by setting the booktitle attribute on
the respective ANT task). However, there is no respective attribute for
copyright and author information).

What's your suggestion to add the needed information to the DocBook file?

Cheers,
Peter

Peter,

I suggest that you make a feature request via bugzilla.

In the meantime you can pre-process your generated docbook and insert
the book info (you could use Ant's replaceregexp or use an XSL)

David
