[jira] Created: (FOR-700) SelfDoc-target to add resolved uris in site.xml

SelfDoc-target to add resolved uris in site.xml
-----------------------------------------------

         Key: FOR-700
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-700
     Project: Forrest
        Type: New Feature
    Reporter: Ferdinand Soethe
    Priority: Minor


With the growing number of indirection that location maps allow for a uri in site.xml, finding the physical location for a href in site can become an increasingly difficult and painful process for an editor. A new target should process site.xml, resolve all the uri and add an addional attribute showing the resolved location to each element. To avoid confusion and users trying to edit these attributes this info could be places in comments instead of atttributes.
The original discussion about this is http://casa.che-che.com/~bot/forrest/forrest.log.04Oct2005 starting about 18:43.

[jira] Commented: (FOR-700) SelfDoc-target to add resolved uris in site.xml

Ross Gardler commented on FOR-700:
----------------------------------

The idea of writing to site.xml is not supported by everyone in the discussion (i.e. the only other participant, me). However, since it gets written *only* by running a specific forrest target I'm OK with it.

I prefer Davids suggestion, which was to have Forrest output an index, mapping site -> locatiomap in various useful ways.

I see this target also generating that documentation. We can use some configuration information to turn on/off the idea of writing back to site.xml
