Topic Identifier Error

[relgin]

Hi,

When I build my webhelp, I get the following error:

Compiler: Alias: Topic identifier "NEW1" not declared in any header file

I think that I did create a new identifier in the alias file, but thought that it had been deleted. I can't see any identifier or topic that uses NEW1. Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks.

If I recall correctly from another post, you have to open the header file in the Internal Text Editor or Notepad and look for an empty set and remove the empty set from the file.

Compiler: Alias: Topic identifier "NEW1" not declared in any header file

This error shows up when an old entry existed in the alias file, but had the related line removed from the header file. If you just remove a line from the header (the *.h file), Flare does not remove the corresponding entry from the alias. However, it also does not show it in the Flare alias editor, which can be confusing.

To clear the error message, you have to open the alias file using the internal text editor, and remove the whole line starting:
<Map Name="NEW1" ... link something ... up to the closing />

Ah, right track, wrong file. I should have said alias file, not header file.
