Generating friendly HTM file names from Sandcastle

  • Article

Sandcastle generates GUID file names for HTM. With the release of November CTP you can generated friendly HTM names. The blog post https://blogs.msdn.com/sandcastle/archive/2006/07/29/Creating-a-Chm-build-using-Sandcastle.aspx explains steps for generating a CHM output. To generate friendly HTM names replace step 5 for transforming the output with the following: 

XslTransform /xsl:..\..\ProductionTransforms\AddOverloads.xsl reflection.org

/xsl:..\..\ProductionTransforms\AddFriendlyFilenames.xsl

/out:reflection.xml

In the above step we releace AddGuidFilenames.xsl with AddFriendlyFilenames.xsl. Doing the above will generate friendly HTM names for the files in the Output/html folder.
