I am writing regarding some problem with the WebHelp converter. I try to use WHC v.3.6.0
to create WebHelp from few XHTML pages. But, something wrong when I use
"add-index" parameter (see the attached screen for details). Other parameters
work correctly.
Sorry but there is a bug in the documentation of XMLmind Web Help
Compiler (WHC).
According to the documentation,
https://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_whc/doc/manual/parameters.html#wh-add-index,
parameter "add-index" should be supported but in fact is NOT supported.
In the next version of WHC, we'll either correct the documentation of
XMLmind Web Help Compiler or implement the support of parameter "add-index".
Meanwhile the workaround is, of course, to copy "by hand" (possibly in a
script of some sort) to a file called "index.html", the ".html" file you
consider to be the entry point of the generated Web Help.
Example, excerpts from one of our Makefiles:
---
$ java -jar ../../lib/whc.jar \
-toc toc.xml \
-index index.xml \
-p --navigation-color "#15141A" \
-p user-css wh_resources/xmlmind.css \
-p favicon wh_resources/favicon.png \
-p user-header wh_resources/header.html \
-p user-footer wh_resources/footer.html \
-p user-resources wh_resources/header_footer_files \
../../doc/manual/ *.html
$ cp -p ../../doc/manual/what_is_it.html ../../doc/manual/index.html
