Hi,
I just installed eclipse-jee-galileo-win32.zip. I'd like to use the SWT
and would like to have it's documentation locally on my PC. I found it
online in the Platform Plug-in Developer Guide chapter of the
documentation, which does not seem to be available locally on my
installation.
I searched for quite a while now but only end up at the online
documentation. Only one article told me that by installing the
corresponding package I'll get the documentation locally. The
corresponding package, however, seems to be already part of
eclipse-jee-galileo-win32.zip. When I try to install it I get some message
it's already there and the documentation is still not available locally.
Any hint?
TIA,
Thomas

Hello
The whole documentation you are seeing online is shipped along with
Eclipse too. However, the files are packed into several OSGi bundles
of which each contains parts of the documentation.
The preferred way to access the doc is to use Eclipse's help center.
Or you may unpack the following jars (all located in the plugins
directory):
org.eclipse.gef.doc.isv_3.5.0.v20090422-2346.jar
org.eclipse.jdt.doc.isv_3.5.0.v20090603-1530.jar
org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv_3.5.0.v20090611.jar
org.eclipse.datatools.doc.isv_1.6.0.200806091108.jar
org.eclipse.draw2d.doc.isv_3.5.0.v20090422-2346.jar
The API doc in there is a standard JavaDoc documentation and easily
browsable. The guides are there, but they lack the index and search
functionality as these functions are normally handled by the help
center.
A third option is to run the so called info center locally. For more
information about that possibility, please refer to:
http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse .platform.doc.isv/guide/ua_help_setup_infocenter.htm
