[dbdoclet] Re: How to use TidBits GUI

Hello S. Mathur,

the Swing application (tidbit) creates and opens an ant build XML file
itself, not a DocBook XML file.
Perhaps you can create a small new project with tidbit and then have a
look at the generated project file. You then can reuse the targets for
generating PDF in your build file or integrate the one created by tidbit
via the  <ant> target. tidbit was designed to generate an ant file,
which covers the generation from javadoc to the resulting media. You are
already one step further.

If you need more information, please let me know.

Regards
Michael
