I've got a problem with TOC entries showing up in plugins published to a
local update site.
I created a simple plugin with just a table of contents (TOC) extension to
add an entry into the "Help Contents" window.
When I kickoff the runtime workbench, the entry shows in the TOC with all
my entries.
I then created a Feature Project and an Update Project for this plugin and
published it to a local update site.
I can then retrieve the plugin via "Help","Software Updates","Find and
Install", and the plugin downloads and installs as it should.
The Problem: The plugin's help documentation doesn't show in the TOC.
I have checked that the plugin is loaded through "Help","About Eclipse
Platform","Plugin Details" and it shows up. I have also read and re-read
the article on update sites and it looks like I'm doing everything Ok.
Just as a sanity check, I also copied the whole plugin that I developed
into an eclipse/plugins directory and ran a separate eclipse. The plugin
is located AND the TOC shows up.
Somehow, the publish isn't jaring up the help files or something weird.
Any help would be appreciated.

Nothing like answering your own question; and only a few minutes after
positing.
In the plugin.xml/Build tab, you specifiy that files and directories you
want to include in the build. Just had to select my help directory that I
placed all the help files and everything worked great.
