More a suggestion than an error, although I agree with the comment that is already
here. The Map.jhp file needs to have "topic" and "howto" changed to "Topic" and
"HowTo".
My suggestion involves sample code to replace the "Try" section of the code when
running the HelpSet out of a jar file. It took me a while to "find/figure out" the
correct syntax.
***************
// try code for executing the help from a JAR file.
// NOTE: you must edit the Map.jhm file and change "topic" to
// "Topic" and "howto" to "HowTo" in the path names. Update
// the TypeFacerHelp.jar with this modified file.
// If you don't make these changes, the Table of Contents will show,
// but not the actual help text. - GHP
// Find out what your current directory is
URL URL1 = new URL((new File(".")).toURL(), "TFHelp/TypeFacerHelp.jar");
System.out.println(URL1.toString());
String userdir = URL1.toString();
// The userdir string is "file:D:..... It seems to work, but I
// am removing the "" before the "D:" GHP
userdir = "file:"+userdir.substring(6);
// This must be done on Windows systems - can't hurt - GHP
userdir = userdir.replace('\', '/');
System.out.println("userdir = "+userdir);
URL x[] = { new URL(userdir) };
ClassLoader cl = new URLClassLoader(x);
String hsName = "HelpSet.hs";
URL hsURL = HelpSet.findHelpSet(cl, hsName);
System.out.println("hsURL ok");
hs = new HelpSet(null,hsURL);
hb = hs.createHelpBroker();
System.out.println("Found help set at " + hsURL);
