Error 10037, circular dependency in target

[udonna]

Hello,

Got this error when I first created a custom TOC and then a custom target:

10037 Found circular dependency from PDF_TOC.fltoc to PDF_TOC.fltoc PDFA4 TOC Expansion C:\Users\udonna\Documents\My Projects\ManualOLH-Test\Project\TOCs\PDF_TOC.fltoc

I'm new at Flare and can't figure out what I've done wrong.

Would most appreciate any suggestions you might have for troubleshooting this error.

Many thanks,
Donna

It looks like you may have tried to include a TOC file in itself. Does the TOC mentioned in the error message include other TOCs, rather than just topics?

If so, check any TOCS that it includes to make sure they aren't either that same TOC, or another TOC that in turn includes that TOC.

If that doesn't reveal anything obviously wrong, try a "find in files" text search for any reference to the file PDF_TOC.fltoc. It should appear in your .fltar target file, but if you find it anywhere else, in particular, in another .fltoc file, then that's where you need to do some more digging.

Post again if you are still having problems.
