Package org.eclipse.ui.help Description

Classes for integration with the help support system in the Eclipse Platform User Interface.

Package Specification

Within the Eclipse Platform UI each user interface component should integrate with the help support system. The simplest form of help integration is accomplished using WorkbenchHelp. This class provides the client with methods to define a help context for SWT Controls. Once defined, the help support system will automatically launch help with the appropriate context if a user request for help occurs.
