How to set Help -> Help Contents [message #321149] Wed, 10 October 2007 08:28 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Am I able to set the URL that shows up when the user clicks on Help ->
Help Conents menu item in my product?

I've found in the docs that I've to set this property value in the
plugin_customization.ini file, but this doesn't works for me :-(


org.eclipse.help.base/help_home=http://www.my.url


My problem is that the product still wants to use the default Eclipse
settings for it, and I get an empty screen with the following error:

HTTP ERROR: 404
ProxyServlet: /help/index.jsp
RequestURI=/help/index.jsp
Powered by Jetty://


Anybody has any clue about how to make that correctly? Or any
workarounds, like disabling the whole help stuff by default (since we
don't have any real help content).

Hi Richard,

There's a newsgroup specifically about the Eclipse user assistance (=
help contents, help system, help view, cheat sheets, wizards, etc).

It's eclipse.platform.ua.

You might want to re-post your question there, as that newsgroup is
monitored by the Eclipse committers who work in the help system area.
