Multiple tables of contents in LaTeX

I would like to make a LaTeX document with two tables of contents, like:

Contents overview

  • 1 - Introduction
  • 2 - Solution

Detailed contents

  • 1 - Introduction
    • 1.1 - The problem
    • 1.2 - Why?
  • 2 - Solution
    • 2.1 - Phase A
    • 2.2 - Phase B

I tried with 

\setcounter{tocdepth}{1}
\tableofcontents

\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}
\tableofcontents

but this only displays the first table of contents as required. The second table of contents is empty... (The second table of contents is actually empty even without the two \setcounter lines.)

(A related question: how to change the title of the table of contents (to something different than the default Contents)?)

Solution

  • Have you tried the shorttoc package?
