| <p>Documentation teams should rely on the Java source files (for the helpKey |
| constants interface classes) as the original and definitive sources of all |
| helpKey constant strings. |

| |
| <p>Creating the Java properties files can be somewhat automated (that is, by |
| processing the Java source files with a simple Perl script). |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Most of the other artifacts required for a context-sensitive help UA plug-in can |
| be generated by XSL transformations of a DITA-XML map document. |
