The tool set can be run on Unix (Solaris), Linux, or Windows machines.[1] Requirements are:
Java 1.6 or later
Apache ant - ant is a multi-platform build manager. It serves much the same purpose as the Unix/Linux make command, but allows most projects to be built without writing commands in a (system dependent) command shell language.
A copy of the tool set
If you are working on our Solaris network, you can
simply use my copy at
/home/zeil/usr/local/DocBook/.
If you are working on a Linux system, make a copy of that same directory on your Unix system.
On a Windows system, you will also need a copy of that directory. You might find it easiest to "shadow" the Solaris path by creating, on your C: drive, a folder named "home", then inside that a folder named "zeil", and so on.
In all of the subsequent examples, I will assume that you are using
a tool set at /home/zeil/usr/local/DocBook/. If you
have opted to place it elsewhere, you will need to adjust paths
accordingly.
[1] Windows use is currently limited to editing documents. I hope to support building document sets on Windows soon.
