WebHelp search indexes

[Stefan Hinz <stefan.hinz@oracle.com>]

At the MySQL Docs team, we build targets using make and xsltproc. 
There's no documentation how to do that for creating WebHelp output, 
though -- all the docs I've seen just explain how to build output with Ant.

Anyway, I've got this working with xsltproc and our build infrastructure 
now, except for one thing: The search functionality works, but it 
doesn't find anything. I compared the output created by Ant (using the 
Oxygen Editor), and the one created by xsltproc, and found that the 
latter doesn't create any index files in the content/search/ directory. 
Those files are named index-1.js, index-2.js, and index-3.js. If they're 
created, that is. :-)

The WebHelp documentation on this is very sparse, and again 
Ant-specific. It says:

To build the indexer, you must have installed the JDK version 1.5 or 
higher and set the ANT_HOME environment variable. Run ant build-indexer 
to recompile nw-cms.jar

In the builds.xml configuration file for Ant, I see quite a few lines 
relating to the indexer, but I don't know how to rewrite that for make.

Any pointers how to run the indexer from our make-based environment?
