Subject: Collecting glossentries in glossary database
For the moment, I use a separate glossary file, targeting via <glossterm linkend="xxx">...</glossterm> to entries of the glossary. I have set glossentry.show.acronym=primary, because I really have a lot of acronyms: >>>>>>> <glossentry id="glo-jaa"> <glossterm>Joint Aviation Authorities</glossterm> <acronym>JAA</acronym> <glossdef> <para lang="de">Gemeinschaft der europäischen Zivilluftfahrtbehörden.</para> </glossdef> </glossentry> <glossentry id="glo-jar"> <glossterm>Joint Aviation Requirement</glossterm> <acronym>JAR</acronym> <glossdef> <para lang="de">Anforderungen der JAA.</para> <glossseealso otherterm="glo-jaa"/> </glossdef> </glossentry> <<<<<<< becomes: >>>>>>> JAA (Joint Aviation Gemeinschaft der europäischen Authorities) Zivilluftfahrtbehörden. JAR (Joint Aviation Anforderungen der JAA. Requirements) Siehe auch JAA. <<<<<<< The result is absolutely fine. But I want to go a step further and want to use the glossary file as database. I read Bob's documentation on that subject (setting the /|glossary.collection|/ parameter,...) and must realize, that it will not work with my glossary, because I use acronym in glossentry and the text in my document uses the acronym term and not the glossterm: ...<glossterm linkend="glo-jar">JAR</glossterm>... I'm asking myself why the stylesheets are only relying on the text node content of glossterm and firstterm (or the |baseform| attribute), and why the stylesheet will not collect the glossary entries by using the linkend attribute (wouldn't this be safer anyway)? Is there a special reason for this? Can I get this working nevertheless, has someone a solution? Thanks, Georges
