From Dave Williams: Another doc update patch. This one includes screen captures for the C++ preferences, and some views, outline view, projects view. Updated the references page to show all documentation in that section from the main page (there were double linked sections and some docs were not linked). Updated the topics_Reference.xml, it also contained invalid and double linked sections. 2004-04-19 14:57:01 +00:00			`<p>You can select an element name in your code and quickly navigate to its declaration.</p>`
From Dave Williams: Screen captures were added or changed, modified all files with screen captures to use JavaScript to shrink images until the user clicks them. Updated menu lists in docs (removed tables, now shows full content below section name). 2004-04-28 17:02:19 +00:00
From Dave Williams: Continuing doc cleanup, new tutorials, updated screen captures, changed workflows as required. 2004-06-21 10:33:03 +00:00			`<img src="../images/openDeclaration.png" alt="Editor View showing Open Declaration option">`

Doc update from Devin. Here's what I've changed: changes to the doc htm files: - added open definition -> added concepts/cdt_c_open_definitions.htm -> added images/openDefinition.png -> added images/open_definition_error.png -> updated images/openDeclaration.png -> updated images/open_declaration_error.png -> added tasks/cdt_t_open_definitions.htm -> updated links to point to open definition wherever open declaration is linked - information about the code reader buffer and properties in the menu -> added images/cdt_pref_parser.png -> added reference/cdt_o_parser_pref.htm (C/C++ Parser preferences) -> added reference/cdt_u_c_parser_codereader_cache_pref.htm -> added link to cdt_o_parser_pref.htm in reference/cdt_o_ref.htm - removed reference/cdt_u_shared_lib_view_pref.htm since it has no useful information (also removed the corresponding link in contexts_CDT_DEBUGGER.xml) - renamed the link absolute path "file:///E:/CDT/3.1/eclipse/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.user/images/indexer_import_largeproject1.PNG" in tasks/indexer_importing_large_project.html to the relative path "../images/indexer_import_largeproject1.PNG" dead links: removed: concepts/cdt_c_editor.htm -> <br><a href="../reference/cdt_u_editor_key_bind.htm">C/C++ editor key binding actions</a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_ctagsindexer.htm -> <a href="../tasks/cdt_t_indexer_timeout.htm"></a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_ctagsindexer.htm -> <a href="../reference/cdt_u_search_pref.htm">Search, C/C++ Preferences window</a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_fullindexer.htm -> <a href="../tasks/cdt_t_indexer_timeout.htm"></a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_fullindexer.htm -> <a href="../reference/cdt_u_search_pref.htm">Search, C/C++ Preferences window</a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_open_close.htm -> <a href="../tasks/cdt_t_indexer_timeout.htm"></a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_open_close.htm -> <a href="../reference/cdt_u_search_pref.htm">Search, C/C++ Preferences window</a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_prog_bar.htm -> <a href="../tasks/cdt_t_indexer_timeout.htm"></a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer_prog_bar.htm -> <a href="../reference/cdt_u_search_pref.htm">Search, C/C++ Preferences window</a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer.htm -> <a href="../tasks/cdt_t_indexer_timeout.htm"></a> removed: concepts/cdt_c_indexer.htm -> <a href="../reference/cdt_u_search_pref.htm">Search, C/C++ Preferences window</a> renamed to references/cdt_u_m_edit.htm: concepts/cdt-c_templates.htm -> <a href="../reference/cdt_u_menu_edit.htm">Edit menu</a> removed: concepts/cdt_o_concepts.htm -> <img src="../images/trans.gif" border="0" width="50" height="1" alt=""><a style="text-decoration:none" href="cdt_c_indexer_prob_rep.htm">C/C++ Indexer Problem Reporting</a><br> removed: reference/cdt_u_m_project.htm -> Concepts/cdtconcepts-4.htm removed: reference/cdt_u_m_project.htm -> Tasks/cdttasks-106.htm removed: reference/cdt_o_ref.htm -> reference/cdt_u_mfile_rbcs.htm removed: reference/cdt_o_ref.htm -> reference/cdt_u_search_pref.htm renamed to cdt_o_mproj_pref.htm: reference/cdt_o_ref.htm -> reference/cdt_o_mproj_pref.htm removed: reference/cdt_u_m_project.htm -> Tasks/cdttasks-106.htm removed: tasks/cdt_o_tasks.htm -> <img src="../images/trans.gif" border="0" width="50" height="1" alt=""><a style="text-decoration:none" href="cdt_t_indexer_prob_rep.htm">C/C++ Indexer Problem Reporting</a><br> 2005-08-12 13:43:10 +00:00			`<img src="../images/open_declaration_error.png" alt="No declaration was found message.">`
