Extension point (org.eclipse.help.contentExtension) link resources (images etc.) [message #1060578] Mon, 27 May 2013 03:12 Go to next message

Hi,

I am using the extension point "org.eclipse.help.contentExtension" to allow installed plug-ins to add help dynamically in the global help of our Eclipse 3.8.x/4.2.2 (compatbility mode) RCP application.

The thing is that I want them to also be able to embed images and other resources in the provided help. But the "org.eclipse.help" does not seem to do anything to these links and they cannot be resolved from the source plug-in.

I tried the following variations in the source plug-in XHTML with no success:
<img src="/my.contributing.plugin/resources/help/someImage.png" alt="Some image" />
<img src="my.contributing.plugin/resources/help/someImage.png" alt="Some image" />
<img src="/resources/help/someImage.png" alt="Some image" />
<img src="someImage.png" alt="Some image" />


Note that the XHTML document containing any of these lines is located on the same directory level as "someImage.png". The rest of the document is shown in the global help without problems.

Any hints?

Thanks,
Norman

Hi,

I found that the system can resolve links if they are done in the following format:
<img src="/help/ntopic/contributingPlugin/path/in/contrib/plugin/to/image.png" />


Regards,
Norman
