Re: [platform-help-dev] hrefs in HTML files

Does it  work this way even if the plugins are scattered among different
local directories.
e:\myproduct\plugins
f:\extension\plugins
All threaded together with a platform.cfg?

It may be the ../../ throwing me off. It is too much like a directory name
:-)


The basic concern is that it is possible for the documentation plugins to
act like other plugins. In that they can prereq other plugins and have
version numbers etc. Can be part of a feature and be updated by the update
manager. Are loaded by version with the same rules as the other plugins
are.

Janette,

The supported way to refer to a file in a different plug-in is <a href
="../../plugin_ID/file.html">.  Note that you need to use plug-in ID, not
the directory name in the above path.
The latest integration builds did not have org.eclipse.platform.isv.doc
plugin included in the build.  This might be the reason why the link did
not work.  If you had the link coded correctly,
org.eclipse.platform.isv.doc plug-in exists in your installation, and you
see a problem, please open a defect.

Regards,

                    Please respond to

                    platform-help-dev






How are hrefs between HTML files in different plug-ins supposed to be
coded? In Eclipse V1, they were coded <a href="/pluginID/file.html" >. In
earlier V2 drivers, we had to update our hrefs to HTML files that exist in
a different plug-in to be <a href="../../plugin_directory_name/file.html"
>. In the current drivers where the version number is being appended at the
end of the plug-in directory name, these links no longer work. For an
example, see the PDE Guide topic "Configuring the PDE". Just above the
screen capture there is a link to the topic "Running the Platform" which is
in the org.eclipse.platform.isv.doc plug-in.

Can the hrefs in HTML files use the plug-in ID (independent of version)
instead of physical path and directory?

Thanks, Jeanette
