dita.temp.dir modified in Author 15.1
Hi I am using DITA-OT 1.5.4 I am using the dita2eclipsemap functionality. Some things use dita.temp.dir, which is set on the command line by oXygen. It is not set to the value I set in the dialog: - (my map dir)/temp, but rather to: - (my map dir)/temp/oxygen_dita_temp Can you explain why Author 15 adds the extra folder name to the end of the "Temporary Files Directory" value that I set in the "Edit DITA Scenario" dialog, in the "Output" tab? This is unexpected behavior for me. Is there a setting where I can turn off this behavior?

Hi Rob, This is a behavior we added a couple of versions ago, possibly in 14.0. If the DITA OT transformation is about to start and the configured temporary files folder exists and has content inside it, Oxygen will create an additional "oxygen_dita_temp" folder inside it and pass that as the temporary files folder to the DITA OT. We did this because one of our users configured the temporary files folder to be the same folder in which the DITA Map was located, which resulted in the entire DITA content being wiped out by the DITA OT process after the transformation was finished. Usually the DITA OT build process has the parameter "clean.temp" set to "yes" which means that the folder is usually deleted at the end of the transformation by the DITA OT build files. But probably in your case there was a previous transformation which failed and left the folder on disk. So if before starting the transformation the folder "(my map dir)/temp" has no content inside it or if the "clean.temp" parameter is set to "no", Oxygen will not create the extra "oxygen_dita_temp".
