help system
Locked

I haven't had chance to do a deep investigation of the help system yet, but
I have a few futher questions: 1) is the main purpose of the content management records to link the current screen to the appropriate help content? 2) could the help system be replaced with the eclipse help system? the eclipse help system has some nice additional functionality such as search? Many thanks, Chris |

Then, a simple search interface would have to be added so we could search into the help system. HTH, -- Erwan de FERRIERES www.nereide.biz |

Hi Erwan, why build a help system when the eclipse help system has more
features and is very mature - see it in action here: http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?

Sitting back, drinking a nice cool beer and reading the mailing list... It seems like there is a lot of re-work/extra-work done in the open source community (including ofbiz) because of a lack of cohesive licenses. I am NOT an expert on the open source community or the various camps (free software and all source code, vs commercial variants), but it is a little sad and discouraging when it appears like the only course for our ofbiz project is to do-more-proprietary technology.... yet another piece of technology to add to the ofbiz pile....
Just a curious note about EPL, isn't BIRT covered by this license and it has found it's way into ofbiz.... Marc Morin Emforium Group Inc.

Isn't BIRT under the EPL?
