Description
|
In regenerating the RealTime Java book with the latest MIF doclet.
it needs this feature.
In the table of contents, if you try to autonumber the chapters,
the front and back matter also get chapter numbers (which they
shouldn't get).
Sections in the front matter, chapters, and back matter, are currently
all assigned the paragraph tag "ChapterHead". This means their
TOC styles are all ChapterHeadTOC. So all will get the same
autonumbering series.
.........
To illustrate, the following front matter section produces files
with "ChapterHead" assigned to the title of each section:
<FrontMatter>
<TitleFile> james/titlepage.mif </TitleFile>
<ContentsFile> james/contents.mif </ContentsFile>
<SectionFile> james/src/javax/realtime/caveat.html </SectionFile>
<SectionFile> james/src/javax/realtime/authors.html </SectionFile>
<SectionFile> james/src/javax/realtime/preface.html </SectionFile>
<SectionFile> james/src/javax/realtime/foreword.html </SectionFile>
</FrontMatter>
These styles then convert to ChapterHeadTOC in the table of contents,
which is the same style used by the <SectionFile> options
in the <Chapters> section.
The problem with this is that then there is no way to separately number
the TOC entries for only those sections inside <Chapter>.
We should probably create a new style called SectionHead that
is identical to ChapterHead but gets applied to front and back
matter sections. Then ChapterHead could have autonumbering
applied to it without affecting front and back matter.
|
|
Work Around
|
To manually apply "SectionHead" style after the book is generated,
then generate the TOC manually. Ughh.
|
|
Evaluation
|
This bug has been fixed. SectionHead is now applied to headings in section files.
