We are developing RCP application. Recently we have implemented eclipse help in our application, using TOC we have integrated all html pages in help but we are facing one issue.

In help dialog, default page is eclipse default html page(help introduction), i have seen in eclipse help customization tutorial that it is defined in following way: help_home=/org.eclipse.help/doc/help_home.html

I have tried to add this property in plugin_customization.ini but no success.

Please guide me, how to override default eclipse help page displayed while launching help dialog?

Additionally is there any way to support this page for multiple languages, as it is currently supporting english page and translation plugin for help does not contain this page.

Is your page properly included in one of your plugins and referenced from .ini? Did you define proper extension for the .ini file? - McMonster
Yes, it is included and now i am able to see my own page in html by providing field org.eclipse.help.base/help_home in ini file. but it is always showing in english, Is there any way to provide support for multiple language for this? I can not find anyway to support this page for language other than english? - Gaurav

You must include the plugin id that owns the preference when specifying preference values in the plugin_customization.ini file. help_home belongs to the org.eclipse.help.base plugin so the format is:

org.eclipse.help.base/help_home=/pluginId/path/to/home.html
