Hi,
With feedback from people on this newsgroup, I was able to figure out how
to point to documentation outside the Eclipse directory structure.
I created a links directory under the Eclipse directory. Then in the
links directory, I created a file called .links and then added the line :
path=C:\\mydocumentation\\eclipse_plugins
When I ran Eclipse help again, it looked in
c:\mydocumentation\eclipse_plugins
and displayed the documentation in navigation window of the Eclipse help
system.
My next question is, could I specify more than one directory in the .links
file. Can I have two or more different paths. So that people could place
their documentation in more than one spot outside the Eclipse directory
structure. How would I do that?
I tried adding two paths such as:
path=C:\\mydocumentation\\eclipse_plugins
path=C:\\mydocumentation\\anotherdirectory
But it always picks the last one. It does not use both the paths.
Is there another way to specify the paths so that more than one path can
be specified?
Thanks,
Probir
