Re: GTK-Doc External Links

[Jeff Johnston <jeff johnston mn gmail com>]

Ok. So now I see that gtkdoc-rebase is a perl script that gets run on the command line.

Unfortunately when I run it nothing happens...none of the html files are modified. So, if anyone has any ideas that would be helpful. Barring that I will have to break out my perl book and walk through the script to see what the problem is.

Thanks! But do you have an example of how that is used? I see other projects have a reference to gtkdoc-rebase but it is not obvious on how to actually define (use) that. When I first saw your reply I thought it was going to be a command line option when using ./configure (like --enable-gtk-doc), but it does not seem to work like that.

It depends on what you mean by correct because...

...this is definitely correct for some values of correct (the links
point to something that does not disappear when you lose network
connectivity).  To change them to on-line locations use
gtkdoc-rebase --online.
