Recently i started to port boost documentation building to CMake ( https://github.com/boost-cmake/) with ryppl-dev community, and i have some issues with auto_index. According to documentation ( http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_52_0/tools/auto_index/doc/html/boost_autoind...) this tool supports boostbook XML, however when i started to process XML with auto_index it crashes.

I created ticket (https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/7967) and added example for reproducing ( https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/attachment/ticket/7967/autoindex_issue.zip ).

Also i have a question: is it legal to use auto_index with boostbook XML, because i have same issue for some others projects?

No, it only understands Docbook, not Boostbook. If the crash happened when processing Boostbook then I'm not that surprised to be honest... it obviously hasn't been tested with that, and definitely won't generate correct output in such a case. John.
