I built a sample set using Eliot’s suggested root map, and it is attached. It has the following directory structure:
rootmap.ditamap
topic-01.dita
submap-01
---- submap-01.ditamap
---- submap-02.ditamap
---- topic-01.dita
---- topic-02.dita
---- topic-03.dita
---- topic-03.dita
Here’s how I would expect the links to be resolved:
Links generated: A reciprocal link between topic-01.dita and submap-01/topic-02.dita. Note that sub01.topic-02 and sub01.topic-02 both resolve to topic-02.dita.
Submap-01
Links generated: A reciprocal link between submap-01/topic-02.dita and submap-01/submap-03.dita
Submap-02
Links generated: None. No key definition for “topic-03” exists in keyscope “sub02”.
Total effective links for the root map:
- A reciprocal link between topic-01.dita and submap-01/topic-02.dita
- A reciprocal link between submap-01/topic-02.dita and submap-01/submap-03.dita
What am I missing? Or does the markup in your sample map need to be modified so that <topicref keyref=”sub01.topic-02/> and <topicref keyref=”sub02.topic-02/> resolve to different DITA topics?
Best,
