Description Angelina CLA 2007-06-19 14:39:29 EDT
Build ID: 4.0

Steps To Reproduce:
Just a drop in the bucket. Mainly addressed the Getting started tutorials ans started the "tasks" topics.

A draft version that will be reviewed over the next few days - by Doug. I roushed though some of it and will take some time tonight and tomorrow to review properly. Also to add a bit more "meat and potatoes".

I have applied this patch. I'd do some further refinement on Wednesday and check that in as well.
Comment 4 Jens Seidel CLA 2007-06-20 04:29:27 EDT
A few remarks to the patch:

Typos (search for it globally, they occur multiple times):
 *dispalys
 *at Step 10instead

Use "into" in "is checked out in to your workspace."?

The text contains stupid Windows paths such as C:\MySrcDirectory (why not
just drop C:/?) and at the same time refers to shared libraries using the
.so suffix (don't they use .dll on windows?)

The paragraph starting with "By default, the indexer is set to <b>Fast indexer</b> for the project" seems wrong to me.

Hi Angelina,

I've found some errors in the following 2 files that I'm not sure how to fix:

/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/concepts/cdt_c_projects.htm
/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/getting_started/cdt_w_newproj.htm

They both have problems with the <fname> tag.  Is that a typo?

Please see the attached "updated error list" in bug 192270 for more details.  Thanks.

Vivian
Comment 6 Vivian Kong CLA 2007-06-21 11:26:09 EDT
Going through the list...here's another file with unknown tags:

/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/getting_started/cdt_w_existing_code.htm

Please see the attached "updated error list" in bug 192270 for more details. 

Thanks,
Vivian

Yes, that's an incorrect tag and I've cleaned it up and will be sending to Doug for updating shortly.
Thanks.

Hi Angelina,

I got a few questions for the file org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user\getting_started\cdt_w_prepare_workbench.htm

- I had the impression that "Show Line lNumbers" is on the C/C++ > Editor page but that option actually resides in General > Editors > Text Editors. Can the doc be updated and maybe mention that "Show Line Numbers" is in the general editor preference?

- "Problem Indicator Color" does not exist - should this become "Problems" (from the list on the C/C++ > Editor > Syntax Coors page)?

- There is no Colors tab on C/C++ > Editor - can we change it to "Syntax Colors" instead to match the screenshot?

Thanks,
Vivian

Yes, I'm in the process now of arranging the tabs/windows where they belong. For the previous release, I opened files to make some corrections; no time for rearranging/reorg. But I'm working on that now, and also adding some missing infoas well. Will hav a patch within a week and it will contain a number of updates.
