Description

If I add any image into the documentation folder, the build.py will fail on iOS:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./build.py", line 217, in <module>
    package_module(manifest,mf,config)
  File "./build.py", line 189, in package_module
    docs = generate_doc(config)
  File "./build.py", line 65, in generate_doc
    html = markdown.markdown(md)
  File "/Users/napp/Library/Application Support/Titanium/mobilesdk/osx/2.1.4.GA/common/markdown/__init__.py", line 598, in markdown
    return md.convert(text)
  File "/Users/napp/Library/Application Support/Titanium/mobilesdk/osx/2.1.4.GA/common/markdown/__init__.py", line 377, in convert
    message(CRITICAL, 'UnicodeDecodeError: Markdown only accepts unicode or ascii input.')

Hi Mads, This bug does not occur in later versions of Titanium, from version 3.0.0 please try it.

So? Thats irrelevant. Most modules are still compiled with 2.x for compatibility reasons. Even your own open source modules are something compiled with 1.x. Can you provide a hotfix for this? Mads

The problem is that 'markdown' is being called with a non-markdown file by the build script -- Try placing the image files into a 'documentation/images' folder rather than directly into the 'documentation' folder. You will need to update your image references in the documentation to include the 'images' path.

Given that this works in 3.X+ and there is a workaround for 2.1.X, we do not have the bandwidth to fix this at this time.

Hi Ingo, Huh, does 3.x have a module api yet? How do I compile a module with 3.x. I asked Chris Barber, but he said it was coming. Can you please show me how to use it? Its cool you dont wanna fix the old one.. Cheers, Mads
