Re: [ease-dev] Link to Help in Module Explorer

We do provide a dedicated doclet that allows to reuse the javadoc
generator to create these help files.

A static example how to do this is available on my blog:
http://codeandme.blogspot.com/2014/10/writing-modules-for-ease.html
(at the very end of this post).

The doclet is available in source:
https://git.eclipse.org/c/ease/org.eclipse.ease.core.git/tree/developers/org.eclipse.ease.helpgenerator
or as a binary on jenkins:
https://ci.eclipse.org/ease/job/ease.build.module.doclet/

The documentation step can also be integrated into a tycho build as we
do it for our modules. Our build pom shows how to do this:
https://git.eclipse.org/c/ease/org.eclipse.ease.modules.git/tree/releng/org.eclipse.ease.modules.releng/pom.xml
(check out the module.docs profile inside the pom)
