Re: [docbook-apps] using local catalog in platform independent way

Hi,


I'm using Docbook finally with some success after lots and lots of work ;-)

My software which is Java based includes the docbook and docbook-xsl tarballs and I want to use the DTD locally so my Ant tasks can create HTML from docbook using the style task without requiring network access.

I have the following in my file:

<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.3CR1//EN"
 "../common/docbook-xml-4.3CR1/docbookx.dtd" [

So I've determined this will work under Unix, but I don't think it works on Windows-- can anyone recommend some approach that will work for both operating systems?

You should use XML catalogs instead of hardwire the filesystem path into your sources. See http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Catalogs.html on how it works.
