HI

Newbie seeking advice!

I am trying to implement Kendy's idea of a temp file with some HTML
inside, I seek a piece of code to open a temp file, write contents in
it, close it.

I started with
---------------
    OUString aExtension(".html");
    ::utl::TempFile aTempFile("newhelp", true, &aExtension, nullptr,
false );
    aTempFile.EnableKillingFile();
--------------

But then How do I write a simple OUString ("hello world") inside it?

Thanks in advance.
Seasons Greetings!
Olivier

Hi
For the records, the patch

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/gitweb?p=help.git;a=commitdiff;h=0e5a56e81f63d2705f1083acda4b2d899783fdcd

now allows the pages to be equally navigated in browser with both
http:// and file:// protocols.

Hi All

To integrate the new offline help in LibreOffice we need to call the
browser from LibreOffice passing the help page parameters.

The job is ready for the online help (*) and is in line 523 of the file
below.

sfx2/source/appl/sfxhelp.cxx.

For the offline help we still need a way to call the browser passing the
right url to

${Install}/help/

in the same sfxhelp.cxx file

David Tardon has prepared a set of makefiles for the new html help with
some new params as

Usage:     --with-help    build the old local help
           --without-help     no local help (default)
           --with-help=html   build the new HTML local help
           --with-help=online build the new HTML online help
           --with-help=common bundle common files for the local
                       help but do not build the whole help

Below are some findings we have from previous discussion on how to
address the issue.

Any help is appreciated

Kind regards
Olivier

Hi Olivier,

Simply replacing the URL + protocol does not work so easy because the
protocols are handled by different applications: http:// is handled
by
the browser and file:// is handled by a file manager, or undefined.

in my linux system the command invokes

xdg-open: file
'/home/tdf/git/core/instdir/help3/help.html?swriter/sfx/ui/startcente
r/open_all?Language=fr&System=UNIX&Version=6.0'
does not exist


Oh yes, the problem is that xdg-open is confused about the parameters
there - it thinks it is still part of the filename :-(

But if you do 'xdg-open file:///some/file/ending_with.html' , it opens
that in the browser; so I think whenever the help file is supposed to
be open, the easiest will be to write a temporary redirectXYZABC.html
file like:

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en-US">
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1;
url=file:///<...>?Language=fr&System=UNIX&Version=6.0">
        <script type="text/javascript">
            window.location.href =
"file:///<...>?Language=fr&System=UNIX&Version=6.0"
        </script>
        <title>Help Page Redirection</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        ... a short explanation about the help maybe? ...
        <!-- Note: don't tell people to `click` the link, just tell them
that it is a link. -->
        If you are not redirected automatically, follow this <a
href='file:///<...>?Language=fr&System=UNIX&Version=6.0'>link to
example</a>.
    </body>
</html>

and let xdg-open open that one.

I've tested here, and xdg-open opens this in the webbrowser & the
redirect works fine :-)  So that + some proper cleanup of the temp
directory will do that I hope.

All the best,
Kendy
