Package DITA API Reference Description
The Eclipse Content Provider is a new function in IBM DITA toolkit Release 1.1
tool. In former releases, you should transform DITA files to HTMLs before you
build them into Eclipse help output. With the Eclipse Content Provider, you do
not need to transform DITA files to HTMLs beforehand. This new function will
preprocess DITA files and dynamically transform them into HTMLs at runtime.
