Hello people,

I've been testing and playing with the Extensible Help feature.
First I'd like to thank and congratulate the developers (Andreas Bregas
et. al.) for this great work, so very useful for everyone writing
extensions.

So far I've been able to do almost everything as drawn in the
specification, but when embedding content (sections and fragments) I
failure completely.

As I'm not sure to which mail list write, although I hate cross posting I send this mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have followed OOo wizards and all the related documentation (the help
authoring guide, the extensible help specs., etc).
Trying to embedded sections following the wiz. example

<embed href="text/shared/autopi/01040100.xhp#seite1"/>

Ive tried first

<embed
href="org.openoffice.sdk.extensions.ExtensibleHelpDemo/DemoWiz01.xhp#WizDlgStep1"/>

This schema works fine when linking, but when embedding OOo crashes
while trying to display the help page. The message in the console:

terminate called after throwing an instance of
'com::sun::star::ucb::IllegalIdentifierException'


I tried also adding one or more "/" to the extension identifier in the
href attr. :

<embed
href="/org.openoffice.sdk.extensions.ExtensibleHelpDemo/DemoWiz01.xhp#WizDlgStep1"/>


but all they show the common warning on the transformated help file

D'oh! You found a bug
(/org.openoffice.sdk.extensions.ExtensibleHelpDemo/DemoWiz01.xhp#WizDlgStep1
not found).

and in the console show the following debug info:

I/O warning : failed to load external entity
"vnd.sun.star.help:////org.openoffice.sdk.extensions.ExtensibleHelpDemo/DemoWiz01.xhp?Language=en-US&System=UNIX&UseDB=no&DbPAR="
I/O warning : failed to load external entity
"vnd.sun.star.help:////org.openoffice.sdk.extensions.ExtensibleHelpDemo/DemoWiz02.xhp?Language=en-US&System=UNIX&UseDB=no&DbPAR="
I/O warning : failed to load external entity
"vnd.sun.star.help:////org.openoffice.sdk.extensions.ExtensibleHelpDemo/DemoWiz03.xhp?Language=en-US&System=UNIX&UseDB=no&DbPAR="
I/O warning : failed to load external entity
"vnd.sun.star.help:////org.openoffice.sdk.extensions.ExtensibleHelpDemo/DemoWiz04.xhp?Language=en-US&System=UNIX&UseDB=no&DbPAR="


Am I doing something wrong? Is this an issue? Or is it just impossible
to embedded content?
I tend to think I'm missing something, but ...
You can see the sample in
http://www.ArielConstenlaHaile.com.ar/ooo/temp/ExtensibleHelpDemo.oxt
(the tags causing the error are commented; context sensitive help is triggered by a dialog in menu File, after wizards, and two dialogs in menu Help, after About OOo; also to find in the Help Index under Extensible Help Demo;Wizard dialog / Extensible Help Demo;About dialog / wizards;Extensible Help Demo - About dialog / wizards;Extensible Help Demo Wizard)

Any hint is appreciated.
Regards
Ariel.
