I downloaded internal NetBeans 8.2 with all plug-ins. In my environment "C/C++", "Java", "Groovy", "Html5" plug-ins are activated. I opened some Java project, but in Help I see "C/C++/Fortran Development" section only. Workaround: type "Php" or "Java" in Search tab.
It seems that help in 8.2 without patches is broken too.
AFAIK help files (packed in jar, zip, whatever) should contain map.xml file which determines help mappings. In 8.2 installation directory only cnd cluster and general help contain such files: ilia:/usr/local/netbeans-8.2$ find . -name docs -exec grep -r map.xml {} + Binary file ./cnd/modules/docs/org-netbeans-modules-cnd.jar matches Binary file ./ide/modules/docs/org-netbeans-modules-usersguide.jar matches
Please ignore last comment, I did grep in directories named "docs" only.
This happens if I call Help (F1) while Java project is selected.
