Hi Goss,

Are the documents you're attempting
to index supposed to be part of the table of contents (like html or xhtml
docs), or are they separate from the help system (like cheatsheets)?

If yes, you should make sure they are
indeed showing up, and you must also specify what file types you can index
in the extension (see XHTMLSearchParticipant extension for an example).
In this case the system will go through the TOC and if it finds a file
of the type you listed, it will call addDocument for it. If you don't specify
any times, it won't call you.

If no, the addDocument method isn't
supposed to be called. In this mode, the system doesn't know about your
documents so it can't pass them to you for indexing. Instead, you must
pass them to the system via the getAllDocuments method.

Have a look at the schema for the extension
point you're using, and in the LuceneSearchParticipant class javadocs for
more info.

Thanks,

Subject	[platform-ua-dev] Trying to use Search Participants

Hi,

I'm attempting to use a LuceneSearchParticipant to index some dynamic e-learning
content. I'm using the following extension:

<extension
point="org.eclipse.help.base.luceneSearchParticipants">
<searchParticipant
id="com.ibm.extremeblue.elearning.external.ScormSearchParticipant"
participant="com.ibm.extremeblue.elearning.external.ScormSearchParticipant"/>
</extension>


However, the class extending LuceneSearchParticipant, com.ibm.extremeblue.elearning.external.ScormSearchParticipant,
never has its addDocument method invoked. Is there an additional step I'm
missing?

Thanks,
