Bug#343089: eclipse-platform-common: Eclipse Help: Invalid Links to API Reference

[Markus Bauer]

Package: eclipse-platform-common
Version: 3.1.1-6
Severity: normal

The Eclipse help ([Help]->[Help Contents]) contains invalid links.

For example the topic [Platform Plug-in Developer
Guide]->[Reference]->[API Reference] says:
"The topic that you have requested is not available.
The link may be wrong, or you may not have the corresponding product
feature installed.
This online help only includes documentation for features that are
installed."

The links points to
help/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/overview-summary.html,

but this file is not available in
eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv_3.1.1/doc.zip/reference/api.

The same problem applies to [JDT Plug-in Developer
Guide]->[Reference]->[API Reference]
and [PDE Guide]->[Reference]->[API Reference].

In the original Eclipse build all links are working.


Regards,
Markus
