helpset findHelpSet returns null

[JosAH]

ok i ll look into it


I now make a runnable jar , with eclipse and all is fine

only the resource files i.e. png files are not shown in the help system of my application

the png files lie under the subfolder of, the folder structure is as follows

application folder
- src/main
- JRE System Lib
- Reference Lib
- bin ( here i have my jar files , also jhall.jar )
- docBook
- jh ( here is the jhelpset.hs )
- resources
- src

If you have stored your .png files in your .jar (as you should've done) they're not just plain files anymore but they are also resources and they should be found that way; also my previous reply applies again.

kind regards,

Jos

Yes i store the png files under the main project subfolder from which i generate the Runnable jar.

All is well when i execute the application from Eclipse

Only when i run the application the jar file directly standalone , the image files are missing

the image files are missing

Look in the jar file to see if the images are there and if the path to the images is correct.

that was a good one

the runnable jar wizard copies are resource files in the same folder

and i had in my html files links to these resource files based on the original folder structure , so it couldnt find the files

thank you for that
