I have an action delegate (implements IWorkbenchWindowActionDelegate)
installed on the Eclipse menu bar behind a custom icon. Its run method,
which I know is being called, does little more than execute
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getHelpSystem().displayHelpResourc e( "/com.sandcherry.voice.help/html/toc.xml");
in an attempt to open the help ui with our custom help shown in the
display window and our "book" open in the contents window. The plugin
name is, of course, "com.sandcherry.voice.help" and the toc.xml file is in
an html directory immediately under it. Based on the examples I've looked
at, the plugin appears to be properly formed, i.e., directories and files
where they should be and all necessary components in place. The toc.xml
file is properly formed as well. The plugin.xml file looks like this
<plugin>
<extension point="org.eclipse.help.toc">
<toc file="html/toc.xml" primary="true">
</toc>
</extension>
<extension
point="org.eclipse.help.index">
<index file="html/index.xml"/>
</extension>
<extension
point="org.eclipse.help.base.luceneSearchParticipants">
<binding participantId="org.eclipse.help.base.xhtml"/>
</extension>
However, when I click on the icon, I see the Eclipse default help in the
display instead of ours. Our help book is shown in the contents window
and can be opened, displayed, and navigated.
Based on Eclipse documentation, various books, and published examples that
I've reviewed, my plugin and code look like the ones I've seen, except
that mine doesn't work.
I'm using Eclipse 3.3.1.1. This same plugin works with Eclipse 3.2. What
am I doing wrong? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
