Laura Stewart commented on DERBY-1590: -------------------------------------- I think that is a good approach :-) If you set up the library conrefs file in the src directory soon, I can help by fixing the ones in the GS and WWD guides as part of the merger. I have this tool call Search and Replace that is really handy for doing global changes to multiple files. I don't know if it is available for UNIX, but it is wonderful on Windows. http://www.searchandreplace.com/ > Consolidate the *conrefs.dita files in the documentation source tree to a > single file. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-1590 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1590 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Documentation > Affects Versions: 10.1.3.1, 10.2.1.6 > Reporter: Andrew McIntyre > Assigned To: Kim Haase > > Currently each book of the documentation contains its own conref file, which > contains reusable content which can be included by reference in the > documentation. These files, e.g. src/devguide/devconrefs.dita, > src/getstart/gsconrefs.dita, should be consolidated to a single file, > probably in the src directory, and the conref URLs updated to include a > relative path up one level to the new file. This way, all of the manuals can > share a single conref file and this content would not need to be duplicated. > This would allow, for example, updating all the appropriate references to the > version number in the documentation by updating a single file. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
