Re: [docbook-apps] CHM Index Problem

[Sam Fischmann <sam.fischmann@gmail.com>]

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that's what I've been doing (if htmlhelp.use.hhk is off, I get no index at all). Given the same project produced by the stylesheets, in windows, the entries in the .hhk file are sorted by the help compiler and grouped together. Under WINE, they simply appear in the index in the same exact order as they do in the .hhk file, duplicates and all. It's kind of interesting that a very specific part of the process is broken but I figure it's at least some kind of hint as to what I need to configure in WINE.

Hi Sam,

Maybe try building it using an hhk file instead of the activex goo put in place of each indexterm by default. See:

Subject: [docbook-apps] CHM Index Problem

 

Hello,

 

Due to some specific requirements, I need to compile CHM files from the htmlhelp stylesheets under WINE in Linux. While my project compiles without errors under both windows and linux, the final .chm index compiled in linux is unsorted and the index entries are not consolidated. Everything else appears normal. I realize this has nothing to do with the stylesheets directly, but I figure there's some slim chance somebody here has encountered this problem so I thought I'd ask if anybody has any insight. I'm already using native versions of itss.dll, itircl.dll, and hhctrl.ocx to no avail.

 

Thanks,
