Re: NB 11.1 Platform Application: HelpCtx.display()

2019-08-27 Thread Emilian Bold
NetBeans under Apache cannot include JavaHelp, that's why you don't
see your helpsets: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-3

I think it should be easy to recompile-in JavaHelp. I kept meaning to
do this for CoolBeans ( http://coolbeans.xyz ) but haven't gotten to
it.

NB 11.1 Platform Application: HelpCtx.display()

2019-08-27 Thread Daniel Hartman
All,
I am porting my NB 8.2 platform application to 11.1, and I am struggling to get 
my helpsets displayed. That is, nothing happens when, for example, a wizard's 
help button within my platform application is clicked.  Everything worked great 
in NB 8.2.
I therefore created an empty platform application in NB 11.1 and added a 
TopComponent, which contains a button that programmatically opens a helpset.  I 
also created a default Help Set in the TopComponent module by following the 
guidelines here:
https://netbeans.apache.org/wiki/DevFaqHelpGuidelines.asciidoc

Finally, I added JavaHelp as library to my application and set it as a 
dependency for my TopComponent module.
Everything compiles and builds fine, but nothing happens when I click the 
button.  
What am I missing?
Thank you in advance for any help.
Dan
