Hi all,
I'm trying to use POD to document my application. I have about 5 different doc files, and I'd like to create links between them when they are translated from POD to HTML. For example, in doc file 1 I'd like to say '...using the foo function, as described in <DOC FILE 2>...', and have the link open doc file 2. I read the POD documentation, specifically the section on creating links with L<...>, but the only examples I can find link to man pages. I couldn't find anything that described creating absolute or relative links to other files.
I tried a couple of different things, just to see what happened. I specified the base name only, the complete filename, and the full path for DOC FILE 2 within the L<...> construct, but I keep getting the following error:
C:\perl\app1\docs\pod\pod2html_txt.pl: app1_example.pod: cannot resolve L<C:\perl\app1\docs\pod\License.html> in paragraph 4. at C:/ActivePerl/lib/Pod/Html.pm line 1562.
In this case, app1_example.pod contains 'L<C:\perl\app1\docs\pod\License.html>' and the License.html file is in the same directory as app1_example.pod. (The pod2html_txt.pl program simply calls pod2html for me.)
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
TIA,
Bob
IIRC, you use the "package" name. E.g. if you have a pod file 'howto.pod' that is distributed with your module 'MyModule' it might be linked to with L<MyModule::howto>. I think...
