Works on Linux, doesn't work on Haiku. It appears xsltproc tries
to fetch the DTD and XSL stylesheets (which doesn't work, for some reason
it wasn't built with HTTP support, and I can't figure out why). Even
when telling it to use the preinstalled XSL & DTDs using --catalog,
it still tries to download the files...
DocBookCSS is a mostly-pure-CSS2 implementation of the DocBook standard.
Unlike DocBookXSL which relies on transforming the XML, it utilizes the
XML-styling features of modern web browsers to display the DocBook.
Its appearance still is a long way from the Haiku Book and Userguide, but
it looks (mostly) the same as the old DocBookXSL so we can stop using that.
Eventually we just need to make DocBookCSS use our styling.
Written by DarkWyrm, this user guide has been long since superseded by
the new HTML-based User Guide, which has everything this did and then
some, with the exception of the "History" section. That section
does seem like it could be useful somewhere, so I've moved it to
its own file in the "docs/misc" directory.
All of the other .dox files here list authors at the top of the file
in a standard (non-Doxygen) comment, so do the same here.
I've listed the file as copyright 2011, as (according to Git) that's
the last time it was functionally changed. I also added a few people
in as being authors of the file who seem to have made significant
changes to it.
...with notes from PulkoMandy and Axel. Also added author credits.
Class documentation is moved to the appropriate method and then \sa
is used to point to the documentation so it is only documented in
one location.
Added some text about how the interaction between BInvoker and
BHandler and/or BLooper works.
BMessenger needs to be documented to understand how SetTimeout() is
suppose to work, refer to BeBook for now.
* This was never implemented and no one noticed until now.
* A default value for a pointer doesn't make that much sense anyway, so
using the FindPointer method is fine.
Docset is an increasingly popular format that is used to generate
an index for HTML documentation that can be viewed by specialized
viewers such as Dash (on the Mac). The output can only be generated
on a Mac currently. Enabling the DOCSET parameter will generate a
Makefile in the html output directory, which can be used to generate
the Docset itself.
Enabling the Docset Makefile does not negatively impact other things,
as such it seems safe to just enable it for whoever wants to build
the docset on a mac.
