I was working in R3.0.1 and linux-gtk environment. I created a RCP with
help system. When I started it in eclipse workbench and triggled "help
content" action, the help system would be shown in internal browser. But
when I started it in shell and triggled help action again, the help
system would be shown in external browser (in my computer which is
mozilla).
Why and How to configure?
Thanks in advance.

Were you running with the same plugins in both cases?
Perhaps your launch in the workbench picked up all the plugins from the
target platform, and your rcp app did not have all the help plugins.
You need all the *.help.* plugins, as well as the lucene and tomcat plugins.

Hi. Thank you good hints, but there are some detailed question.
The main point is the difference in launching RCP application between
using eclipse launcher and using shell script.
I thought some crues after:
1. Are there any relations with workspace in RCP.
2. Are there any relations with configurations in RCP.
3. When eclipse launched a RCP application, does it do some other work?
The thinking before is based on the source of the problem. Your hints is
based on the dest of the problem, but I am not very clear if the
workbench window is a model windows.
Hope to understand the mechanisim.
