External Topic

 

This is a external topic that resides relativ to the CHM files and isn't compiled into the CHM file. Here it's used to show how to link to external files in a CHM topic window.

Delete links in all HTML files of your project - otherwise the external file is compiled to the CHM file.

Make a copy of the external file and delete the file in your project structure before the last compile runs. So the file isn't compiled into the CHM file. But you have to install the external file on the customers PC.

To try this example you must download the complete project example to a local folder, delete all files excepting "CHM-example.chm" and folder "external_files".

Edit following date in the external HTML file "external_topic.htm" to check that you can update the HTML file without recompiling the CHM file:
