Question

publishing merged webhelp from the command line

We're creating our merged webhelp with a script, so we'd prefer to use the command line processor to generate. We'd also like to publish the output. Will directing RH to an output location in the publishing dialog box cause RH to publish each project after it generates?

If so how does this interact with merged webhelp?

If you are asking whether by creating a script to generate/publish a master project will automatically generate/publish the slave projects, then the answer is no. You'd have to create the script to generate/publish the master AND the slave projects to the required locations.

From our testing, the CLI uses the Generate and Publish location settings from the Default Layout, unless you use the location "flags" to indicate other locations.

Ultimately, we decided against using a script for doing this in a 40-project merged WebHelp situation because of fragile network issues.


Good luck,
