Sandcastle - October 2007 Community Technology Preview (CTP)
What's new in this version:
Reflection data files: The reflection files (generated from .net framework 3.5, vs2005 style) are included in the installer. After installation, they can be found under “%DxRoot%\Data\reflection”. In build_sandcastle.bat and build.proj, we have commented out the call to fxReflection.proj.Conceptual example: A conceptual example is located at “DxRoot\Examples\conceptual”. To build it, please run the following command line commands.Cd c:\program files\sandcastle\examples\conceptual
Build_conceptual.bat
Conceptual configs: conceptual.config is added for conceptual build in each presentation style. The path is “Vs2005(/hana/prototype)\configuration\conceptual.config”.Whidbey (VS 2005) style sheet: The old Whidbey style sheet is now available at “DxRoot\presentation\vs2005\style\whidby\presentation.css”. To use it, please copy it to “DxRoot\presentation\vs2005\style” and overwrite the existing css. Before doing this, you may want to backup that css file first.Conceptual Authoring schemas: The schema files under “DxRoot\schemas\Authoring” are schemas for conceptual authoring. The root schema is developer.xsd. The conceptual sample xml can be found at “DxRoot\Examples\conceptual\dduexml”.Reflection schema: The MrefBuilder reflection schema file is available under “DxRoot\schemas\Reflection” folder.Firefox support: we fixed many bugs to make the produced html files compatible with the latest firefox browser.Changes in this version:
- Reflection files are provided under “DxRoot\Data\Reflection” folder.
- Schema files for conceptual authoring and MrefBuilder provided.
