I subscribed to and downloaded the updates for the Core Reference
Library, and the Developer Tools Reference Library. After perhaps
30-45 minutes of download, the process appeared to finish, but nothing
in the 'new and updated' section of the doc viewer had a date more
recent than 2007-12-11.
The last time that I had done an update I was using a seed 10.5.2, so
I went back to a GM 10.5.1 and re-did the experiment, thinking
something in the seed 10.5.2 might be in conflict with the update
mechanism. No luck. (I also did the 10.5.1 test as the admin user, a
mode in which I don't normally run.)
The com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.CoreReference.docset and
com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.DeveloperTools.docset directories have
timestamps of 10 and 11 February 2008 (I was finishing up a rebuild of
this machine around midnight). The former has a CFBundleVersion of
201.1.1 and the latter 202.1.1.
For the CoreReference docset the Resources directory contains dsidx
and skidx directories dated December 17th; for DeveloperTools,
December 11th 2007. The .html files in the sibling Documents
subdirectory are dated in that same early part of December -- but the
components of the directory structure in which they are embedded have
those 10 and 11 February dates when I applied the updates. It's almost
as if the directories get touched, but the files they contain do not
get updated.
The Info.plist file has a DocSetFeedURL of http://developer.apple.com/rss/adcdosets.atom
. Feeding this to Safari causes it to blink briefly and then redirects
me to http://developer.apple.com/rss/index.html, where I can find
articles much more recent than early December.
I've looked in the archives for the last couple month and no one else
seems to be having this problem (or if they are, they are less of a
whiner than I am.)
Is there any way to force the documentation system to discard any
content it has today, download what is current, and produce an index
from what is downloaded?
Thanks.
