Re: [docbook-apps] Generating targetset

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

Hi Mathieu,
If this is about olinking, then it is relevant to this list.  I didn't get that from 
the original mail since it didn't mention "olink", but "targetset" should have been a 
sufficient clue.

I've thought about creating some kind of stylesheet to generate an olink targetset 
structure, but I've never been able to figure out what it should do, since everyone's 
requirements would be different.

In your case, your XML example shows the output structure, but generating a targetset 
structure requires knowledge of the targetdoc values and the locations of the target 
data files (target.db) to be integrated into the targetset structure.  Is that 
information in this XML example?

I'm also not clear about what you meant when you said:

"where common directory need to contains multiple files, so I cannot
simply process one string at a time, but would need some kind of hash
table to find out redundancies."

Can you provide a bit more detail?

For the *exact* same reason there is a xmldepend.xsl as shipped in docbook:

http://docbook.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/docbook/trunk/contrib/xsl/xmldepend/

I believe there should be "targetset_gen.xsl" for ease of integration
of docbook with your build system.

This should have never been a question in XSL mailing list. BTW
docbook 4.5 only requires XSL 1.0, one cannot make it a requirement to
use XSL 2.0 just to be able to generate targetset/olinks files.
