[Scilab-users] Update library and help

[Jean-Yves Baudais]

Hello,

   When I modify the file myfunction.sci in my librairie "mylib", the 
update works as expected when I restard Scilab with the following lines 
in my .scilab file

genlib(SCIHOME+"/mylib/macros")
load(SCIHOME+"/mylib/macros/lib")
add_help_chapter("Librairie perso",SCIHOME+"mylib/jar")

I would like to do the update without Scilab exit and restart, so I do

--> del_help_chapter("Librairie perso")
--> clear mylib myfunction
--> genlib(SCIHOME+"/mylib/macros")
--> 
help_from_sci(SCIHOME+"/mylib/macros/myfunction.sci",SCIHOME+"/mylib/help/fr_FR");
--> xmltojar(SCIHOME"/mylib/help/fr_FR","Librairie perso","fr_FR");
--> load(SCIHOME+"/mylib/macros/lib")
--> add_help_chapter("Librairie perso",SCIHOME+"mylib/jar")

Excepted genlib and xmltojar, not all the code lines work all the time 
(some time yes and some time no). I understand nothing because I not 
able to reproduce "deterministically" the success, or not! So I think my 
code is wrong.

What is the good code to update library and help after changing a file?
