This scenario outlines the index-building steps for a fully compliant SGML MFS database, which consists of multiple tagged SGML files of one document type. This chapter first shows the individual index-building steps that comprise building a complete DLXS index such as that used in Text Class. These individual steps are discussed in a functional sense only. For full details of each index-builder, consult Chapter 3, Detailed Index Building.
Several indices actually comprise a complete DLXS index. Each index is created by a specific index-building utility. The XPAT database manager controls the sequence of the individual index-builders, applying them with user-selected parameters from the command line when necessary.
mfsbld -D patents6.dd -o tempfile.mfs
mfsmeta -o sgmltest.str -D patents6.dd
multirgn -o sgmltest -D patents6.dd -t ottmp.tag -meta sgmltesc.str
sgmlrgn -m region -o sgmltest -M sgmltest.str -G patents -D patents6.dd patents6.inp patents6.dd
xpatbld -m 5m -D patents6.dd
patffw -m 5m -o sgmltest -D patents6.dd
patffi -m 5m -o sgmltest -D patents6.dd
The following table explains the command lines above.
