Bug Fix
Description:
``make uninstall-doc'' wasn't working properly. Some files would be
left behind in the installed source tree. The fix I put in was too
heavy-handed as it wiped out the entire doc tree that was installed
and would remove any other files which were installed there.
Solution:
Executed the ``make uninstall-examples'' command if uninstalling the
docs. Fixed how the java Tutorial examples were being removed (they
weren't). Essentially used the PUB_SUBDOCS macro to help remove them.
Platforms tested:
Linux
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
The doc tree wasn't being cleaned up all the way. Directories would
