This keyword is not expanded by Git which means it's not replaced with the correct revision value in the releases made using git-based scripts and it's confusing to have lines with unexpanded "$Id$" in the released files. As expanding them with Git is not that simple (it could be done with git archive and export-subst attribute) and there are not many benefits in having them in the first place, just remove all these lines. If nothing else, this will make an eventual transition to Git simpler. Closes #14487. git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk@74602 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775

@class wxHelpControllerBase
|
|
|
|
This is the abstract base class a family of classes by which applications
|
|
may invoke a help viewer to provide on-line help.
|
|
|
|
A help controller allows an application to display help, at the contents
|
|
or at a particular topic, and shut the help program down on termination.
|
|
This avoids proliferation of many instances of the help viewer whenever the
|
|
user requests a different topic via the application's menus or buttons.
|
|
|
|
Typically, an application will create a help controller instance when it starts,
|
|
and immediately call wxHelpController::Initialize to associate a filename with it.
|
|
The help viewer will only get run, however, just before the first call to
|
|
display something.

/**
|
|
@class wxHelpController
|
|
|
|
This is an alias for one of a family of help controller classes which is
|
|
most appropriate for the current platform.
|
|
|
|
A help controller allows an application to display help, at the contents
|
|
or at a particular topic, and shut the help program down on termination.
|
|
This avoids proliferation of many instances of the help viewer whenever the
|
|
user requests a different topic via the application's menus or buttons.
|
|
|
|
Typically, an application will create a help controller instance when it starts,
|
|
and immediately call wxHelpController::Initialize to associate a filename with it.
|
|
The help viewer will only get run, however, just before the first call to
|
|
display something.
|
|
|
|
Most help controller classes actually derive from wxHelpControllerBase and have
|
|
names of the form wxXXXHelpController or wxHelpControllerXXX.
|
|
An appropriate class is aliased to the name wxHelpController for each platform, as
|
|
follows:
|
|
- On desktop Windows, wxCHMHelpController is used (MS HTML Help).
|
|
- On Windows CE, wxWinceHelpController is used.
|
|
- On all other platforms, wxHtmlHelpController is used if wxHTML is compiled
|
|
into wxWidgets; otherwise wxExtHelpController is used (for invoking an
|
|
external browser).
|
|
|
|
The remaining help controller classes need to be named explicitly by an
|
|
application that wishes to make use of them.
|
|
|
|
The following help controller classes are defined:
|
|
- wxWinHelpController, for controlling Windows Help.
|
|
- wxCHMHelpController, for controlling MS HTML Help. To use this, you need to
|
|
set wxUSE_MS_HTML_HELP to 1 in setup.h and have the htmlhelp.h header from
|
|
Microsoft's HTML Help kit. (You don't need the VC++-specific htmlhelp.lib
|
|
because wxWidgets loads necessary DLL at runtime and so it works with all
|
|
compilers.)
|
|
- wxBestHelpController, for controlling MS HTML Help or, if Microsoft's runtime
|
|
is not available, wxHtmlHelpController. You need to provide @b both CHM and
|
|
HTB versions of the help file. For wxMSW only.
|
|
- wxExtHelpController, for controlling external browsers under Unix.
|
|
The default browser is Netscape Navigator. The 'help' sample shows its use.
|
|
- wxWinceHelpController, for controlling a simple @c .htm help controller for
|
|
Windows CE applications.
|
|
- wxHtmlHelpController, a sophisticated help controller using wxHTML, in a
|
|
similar style to the Microsoft HTML Help viewer and using some of the same
|
|
files. Although it has an API compatible with other help controllers, it has
|
|
more advanced features, so it is recommended that you use the specific API
|
|
for this class instead. Note that if you use .zip or .htb formats for your
|
|
books, you must add this line to your application initialization:
|
|
@code wxFileSystem::AddHandler(new wxArchiveFSHandler); @endcode
|
|
or nothing will be shown in your help window.
