Hello,
I have a web application running over an equinox platform using RAP for
the GUI. I have been trying to get the eclipse help manager to work inside
my application using the servlet container that my web appl. supports.
So far, the only thing I can access is the ToC over the org.eclipse.help.
I can load the help from here here. But this way there is no access to
search methods or the rest of all the stuff that the eclipse help manager
provides.
So my question is, hoe can I use the real eclipse help manager embedded on
my web application without making it a standalone infocenter.
Thanks in adavance.

Hi,
I guess you mean the eclipse help application, since context sensitive help
currently is not supported in RAP. In fact it seems not to be a big deal to
include the original eclipse help into an RAP application. I just did a test
running it in the demo workbench implementation with the RAP help contents
and got it to work quite fast.
The RAP target is missing the help stuff, so I took the org.eclipse.help,
org.eclipse.help.appserver, org.eclipse.help.base and
org.eclipse.help.webapp and the bundles that are needed to resolve the
dependencies of those bundles from a 3.3.0 eclipse installation. I
additionally included the rap help bundle and the bundles it depends on.
Note: I used the the validate functionality of the launcher to check which
bundles are missing.
After that I created an action in
DemoActionBarAdvisor#makeActions(IWorkbenchWindow):
helpContent = new Action() {
public void run() {
String helpURL = "http://{0}:{1}/index.jsp";
Object[] param = new Object[]{
RWT.getRequest().getServerName(),
String.valueOf( RWT.getRequest().getServerPort() )
};
Shell shell = new Shell( Display.getDefault() );
shell.setLayout( new FillLayout() );
Browser brwsr = new Browser( shell, SWT.NONE );
shell.setBounds( 20, 20, 400, 400 );
brwsr.setUrl( MessageFormat.format( helpURL, param ) );
shell.open();
}
};
helpContent.setText( "Help Contents" );
helpContent.setId( "org.eclipse.rap.demo.helpContent" );
helpContent.setImageDescriptor( helpActionImage );
register( helpContent );
and added it to the menu in DemoActionBarAdvisour#fillMenuBar(IMenuManager).
After launching the application the help system showed up in its own shell
by activating the Help -> Help Contents menu entry. Hope that works for you
too!
Ciao

Hi Frank, thanks for your reply.
But from what I've seen from your code, what you have is a server
running the eclipse help system in helpURL ("http://{0}:{1}/index.jsp"),
right? It's not really embedded in you application.
It's like accessing an Infocenter Help System from inside your application.
My focus was more on the possibility of making the eclipse help manager
embedded in my application, without needing to having a tomcat server
running an Infocenter outside of my application.
At the moment, like I said in the previews post, I can access the ToC
from help system and even get some sort of context in something like:
IToc[] tocs = HelpSystem.getTocs();
IContext context = HelpSystem.getContext(contextId);
This, making use of org.eclipse.help.* package.
But it's all I can do, I can't access non of the other eclipse help
system possibilities, like searching, browser history...
The thing is, I'd like to make sure I wasn't trying to reinvent the
wheel, but so far, it seems to me that to have an embedded Eclipse Help
System within my application I have to reuse the HelpSystem from
org.eclipse.help and design the Help System myself from there.
Anyone can confirm this?
Thanks in advance.

I think you're looking for something like the BaseHelpSystem in
org.eclipse.help.base - but unfortunately this is internal...
Just one thing: I don't have to run an extra server with infocenter
installed. It is embedded in the RAP application that I launch. I only have
to create an access URL since I have to set the property of the browser
widget. The server and port address is the same as the one of the RAP
application. I simply address another servlet and that's the same what RCP
is doing.

I misunderstanded your solution then, because it appears to be what I'm
looking for at the moment. You said you took the following packages from
eclipse plugins folder: org.eclipse.help, org.eclipse.help.base,
eclipse.help.appserver, org.eclipse.help.webapp. So far so good, since
I'm already working with them aswell, but I didn't understand with
package did you refer too by: "rap help bundle". Were do you get this?
Probably this might be the missing link since I have everything else
working right at the moment.
Thanks,
Daniel Conde.

the rap help bundle is in the RAP-CVS (org.eclipse.rap.help). It's just the

http://help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. rap.help/help/html/intro.html). I
just mentioned this to explain which help content I used to play around
with.
I attached a screenshot that may makes thinks more clear. It shows the
integrated help on the left and the activated bundles on the right.

Hi Frank,
I check this code when you posted it. It was working. Now I trying to
repeat it using RAP 1.1.1RC1 and Eclipse 3.4 in my application and it is
now working. I have two entry points and two brandings with 'user' and
'admin' servlet names. Do you have any ideas how to fix it?

>> Hello,
>>
>> I have a web application running over an equinox platform using RAP for
>> the GUI. I have been trying to get the eclipse help manager to work inside
>> my application using the servlet container that my web appl. supports.
>> So far, the only thing I can access is the ToC over the org.eclipse.help.
>> I can load the help from here here. But this way there is no access to
>> search methods or the rest of all the stuff that the eclipse help manager
>> provides.
>> So my question is, hoe can I use the real eclipse help manager embedded on
>> my web application without making it a standalone infocenter.
>>
>> Thanks in adavance.
