builddocsearchdb - Build searchable documentation database

Syntax

builddocsearchdb help_location

Description

builddocsearchdb help_location builds a searchable database of user-added HTML and related help files in the specified help location. The help_location argument is the full path to the directory containing the help files. The database enables the Help browser to search for content within the help files.

builddocsearchdb creates a directory named helpsearch under help_location. The helpsearch directory contains the search database files. Add the location of the helpsearch directory to your info.xml file.

The helpsearch directory works only with the version of MATLAB software used to create it.

For a full discussion of this process, refer to Adding HTML Help Files for Your Own Toolbox.
