[cdt-dev] CHelpProvider problem

[Beth Tibbitts <tibbitts@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a CHelpProvider that provides hover help for specific APIs (e.g.
MPI)
that works in 3.1 but doesn't seem to work in 4.0 (it provides extra text
info about the API being hovered over.)

I have filed a bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=201938
that has a small attached project that has a sample CHelpProvider.
In 3.1.2 it gets called when user hovers over an API; in 4.0 it doesn't.
It does get called in 4.0 if you hover over built-ins (e.g. "int")
but not the APIs it was designed to help. :)

Can somebody have a look at this? Is there something different I'm supposed
to do in 4.0 to get it called?
