There is prototype of dynamic help/help assistant already in cvs in contrib/assistant module. It is based on code assistants proposal. Using this will involve significant effort of DOC group - because lot of new docs will be needed. From implementaiton point of view there could be some registry for HelpManagers. Every HelpManager should be responsible for one or few events in IDE and determing dynamic help content. There will be one HelpManager defined for core IDE and another managers will be registered by modules. Reassigning to the new "core/help system" owner obarbashov. Moving JH issues to Victor. |
