When you use the update feature of the help system, the
help system should refresh the navigation. If that does not happen,
you can manually refresh the help system TOC.
Before you begin
Before you try to update the TOC manually, confirm that the
updated or changed plug-ins have been installed on your system and
restart the help system.
About this task
Sometimes the TOC doesn't update because the cache interferes
with the help system's ability to display the updated plug-ins.
If the TOC is still incorrect after confirming your updated plug-ins
are present and restarting the help system, then try the following
solution.
Procedure
- Navigate to the update log file. By default,
the update log file is created in the following directory: <eclipse_home>/configuration/*.log.
- Stop the help system. For more information on
stopping the help system, see Stopping the help system.
- Delete all files under the directory <eclipse_home>/configuration
except the config.ini file.
- Restart the help system.
Results
The help system will display the updated features or plug-ins
in the navigation.
