All I changed was 1.1.2.1 to 1.3.1
As I read this line, ANT is supposed to look for the zip file in the
basedir, under the lib directory... but that is not where the zip file
is located. And the name of the new zip file is
DITA-OT1.3.1_fullpackage_bin.zip ...
You should put the zip file into the lib directory and then change the
property so that it matches the exact filename of the new zip file.
For testing, another alternative is to just put in the path to the zip
file whereever it lives on your machine, but before checkin it needs
to be generalized so that it will work for other people as well.
Also, I asked the DITA toolkit Help forum about the index issue. Here
is what I received back:
</snip forum response about XEP>
I am not sure that I understand all of what he is saying. Is he
suggesting XEP as a replacement for ANT or something else?
He is suggesting replacing FOP (http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/)
that we use to generate the PDFs from the intermediary XSL-FO format
with RenderX's XEP product:
http://www.renderx.com/tools/xep.html
This is something that we could do, but we'd need to review the
license, get appropriate documentation, and put it to a vote.
The alternative, of course, is to help improve DITA so that it can use
FOP to generate indexes. Sounds like that is probably a major project
and would require someone with XSLT and Java coding experience, since
changes to FOP as well as the DITA toolkit would probably be
necessary.
