Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2002-05-13 16:16:03 UTC 
AntProjectCookieEditor needs to use HelpCtx.setHelpID in
getCustomEditor, I guess.
Comment 2 David Konecny 2002-05-20 14:15:55 UTC 
The new HelpID is 
"org.apache.tools.ant.module.loader.AntProjectCookieEditor".

Jesse, I had to extend the ExplorerPanel to fix this problem. Your 
suggestion cannot be used because TopComponent sets "HelpIDMethod" 
property and HelpCtx.findHelp() uses first "HelpIDMethod" and if it is 
not set it uses then helpId set by HelpCtx.setHelpIDString(). Is this 
OK? I think it should be enough to set a property to change helpId for 
a TopComponent.

Fixed in file:
src/org/apache/tools/ant/module/loader/AntProjectCookieEditor.java
new revision: 1.3; previous revision: 1.2
Comment 3 Jesse Glick 2002-05-20 16:36:27 UTC 
You are right about the getHelpCtx method.

I guess TopComponent.getHelpCtx and ExplorerPanel.getHelpCtx could
check for a helpID client property before anything else. Feel free to
open an RFE if you like.

Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
