[Framers] Single Doctype, Multiple Applications

[ian.proudfoot at itp-x.co.uk]

Hi Rick,
There is a poorly documented special processing instruction that could be
what you need. It was originally used to help with S1000D support where
everything uses the same doctype of 'dmodule'.  I can't find any mention of
it in the maker.ini guide which was where it is configured if I remember
correctly... Nothing in the struct app developer's guides either. I'll keep
looking.
For the Adobe S1000D applications it was handled using ExtendScript where
the selected XML file was opened silently using the built-in E4X support in
ES and the relevant structural clues used to  determine the correct
Structured Application to use.

Subject: [Framers] Single Doctype, Multiple Applications

Hi All,

 

I have a bunch of DITA concepts, but about a dozen different templates. I
want to have a structured application for each one, so I can specify
appropriate templates and transforms for each concept. If I have multiple
applications with the same doctype, can I get FrameMaker to prompt me for
which application to use when I open a ditamap or concept? Thank you very
much.
