Hi,
I have a number of documentation plug-ins that all contain pre-built
indices. When I install these into an Eclipse workbench and perform some
action that prompts Eclipse to build the help index, then everything works
fine: my indices are found.
However, if instead I install my plug-ins from an update site using Update
Manager, then the help system complains with "Help index declared, but
missing" errors in log for every one of my doc plug-ins.
I am using Eclipse SDK 3.3 RC1 and my doc plug-ins are JAR bundles.
I have compared the structure of the index/ folder, plugin.xml, etc. in the
org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv plug-in with mine, and see no differences.
Besides which, they seem to work when I don't install via UM.
Has anyone else seen this before? I need to find a way to resolve this, as
it makes the Europa install experience look bad.
Thnks,
Christian

Hi,
The cause of this problem has been determined to be a missing "index/" entry
in the JAR file for the index folder, itself (the contents of the folder
are present). The update-site builder seems to be removing this folder
entry when it repacks the plug-in JAR.
Cheers,
Christian

Hi,
Just to clarify for any that may be concerned, this turned out to be a
problem in my project's releng scripts, which we have fixed. In building
the Update-Manager JARs, we weren't creating table-of-contents entries for
any directories. With our build scripts fixed, the problem went away.
