Upgrading the Oxygen XML WebHelp Plugin for DITA OT

This topic describes the procedure for upgrading a Oxygen XML WebHelp plugin for the DITA Open Toolkit.

To upgrade your Oxygen XML WebHelp plugin for the DITA Open Toolkit, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the plugins directory of your DITA OT distribution and delete the old Oxygen XML WebHelp plugin files (oxygen_custom.xsl, oxygen_custom_html.xsl) and directories (com.oxygenxml.highlight, com.oxygenxml.webhelp).
  2. Go to Oxygen XML WebHelp website, download the latest installation kit, and unzip it.
  3. Copy the com.oxygenxml.webhelp and com.oxygenxml.highlight directories inside the plugins directory of the DITA OT distribution. The com.oxygenxml.highlight directory adds syntax highlight capabilities to your WebHelp output for codeblock sections that contain source code snippets (XML, Java, JavaScript etc.).
  4. If you are using DITA-OT version 2.x, the WebHelp plugin contains a plugin_2.x.xml which needs to be renamed to plugin.xml.
  5. In the home directory of the DITA Open Toolkit, run ant -f integrator.xml.
