I have two plug-ins. One is a help plug-in (com.xaware.help) with all the
context IDs defined and the referenced help URLs. The following help
plugin.xml entry defines
the source of the context definitions:
<extension point="org.eclipse.help.contexts">
<contexts file="HelpContexts.xml" />
</extension>
Located in the help plug-in root is the HelpContext.xml file. One entry for
the context identifier used to illustrate the problem is shown here:
<context id="ErrorHandling_context">
<description>The example shows how to do error handling. </description>
<topic label="Error Handling example" href="helpset/content/5443.htm"/>
</context>
The other plug-in is one of the custom UI views (com.xaware.designer) and
its plugin.xml file has the following entry to reference to the help's
plug-in context IDs.
<extension point="org.eclipse.help.contexts">
<contexts file="HelpContext.xml" plugin="com.xaware.help"/>
</extension>
However, when I request a IContext in my context provider (which is part of
the com.xaware.designer plug-in, I get a null. For example:
public IContext getContext(Object target) {
IContext context = null;
...
context = HelpSystem.getContext("ErrorHandling_context");
...
return context;
}
Am I using the wrong access method to acquire the IContext, or is there
another issue I'm not satisfying?
