[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] Re: documentation references in context help

["Dara Meinhard" <dara@xxxxxxxx>]

Hey Michael,

why would you seperate (or disconnect) the context.xml and the  
help-html-files?
Why not catching all html files in one zip file (including folders with  
the html files
to seperate the single contents and keep visibility) in addition with all  
context.xml files in one
plug-in? This plug-in is the only plug-in extends the  
[org.eclipse.help.context] Extension
Point. (Yout own help-plug-in.)

The other plug-ins use this help-plug-in only by adding the contextId.
=>PlatformUI.getWorkspace().getHelpSystem().setHelp(getControl(),  
contextId)
If you would like to add another plu-in using your help you just add a new  
extension to the
help-plug-in with the plug-in-id of the new plug-in as plug-in-attribute.

That's it. Very simple, isn't it?
Greetings
Dara Meinhard
