Step 7: Build the Docs

Using Boost.Build you build the docs with either:

bjam release > mylibrary_html.log

To build the html docs or:

bjam pdf release > mylibrary_pdf.log

To build the pdf.

During the build process you should see AutoIndex emit a message in the log file such as:

Indexing 990 terms... 

If you don't see that, or if it's indexing 0 terms then something is wrong!

Likewise when index generation is complete, AutoIndex will emit another message:

38 Index entries were created.

Again, if you see that 0 entries were created then something is wrong!

Examine the log file, and if the cause is not obvious, make sure that you have <auto-index-verbose>on and that any needed !debug regular-expression directives are in your script file.
