Revision of Taxonomy specialization plug-in from Sun, 2007-11-25 08:01

Add content

A plug-in for the DITA toolkit that enables a taxonomy specialization is available for download at sourceforge.net. Although the plug-in is somewhat experimental, it is being used, and merits mention here.

The URL to access the plug-in is:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=132728

Here are some simple notes on how to retrieve and install the plug-in.

  1. Look for the "Plug-ins: specializations" category
  2. Pick the latest version (at this writing, thesaurus0.8.1.zip)
  3. Unzip into your base DITA directory to create demo/thesaurus
  4. In the base DITA directory, execute
ant -f demo\thesaurus\install-plugin.xml

The specialization plug-in provides documentation at the relative path of  demo\thesaurus\doc and a sample at demo\thesaurus\sample within your base DITA directory.
