DocumentGenerator Class - not for EA HTML Reports?
« on: January 27, 2015, 07:59:39 pm »
Is it correctly understood that even though the DocumentGenerator Class supports HTML file format, it is still just an HTML version of the RTF report?

In other words: it does not support the standard EA HTML report format with the TOC (with collapse/expand nodes) in the left side etc?

Is there another similar API or for coding an HTML report (with the same kind of control over which elements are documented in which order and in which structure / hierarchy) ?
(And which can gernerate diagrams with links, of course)

No I don't think so.

Not to my knowledge. You might be able to put something together using Master/Model Documents and Project::RunHTMLReport(), but it won't be as flexible as DocumentGenerator.

My theories are always correct, just apply them to the right reality.

Thanks both.

And just to make sure:
Is it correctly understood that the DocumentGenerator Class with the use of HTML file format is still just an HTML version of the RTF report?

I'm pretty sure it is.
