I stumbled over the same problem today and found the solution (works
reproducably on two Macs ;). It seems a bug (or a subtle feature?!) in
help viewer. It's not the folder name of the localized resources that
matters, it's the name of the help folder itself.
At first I only got a blank page, then tried exchanging "German" with
"de" etc., but didn't get it to work. What helps, though:
and then name the helpbook folders accordingly. Thought I'd share this
with you ;-)
Best regards,
Felix
Hi,
I ran into a weird problem. I have a localized app with Help books in
various languages, each in a folder called "help" in their own .lproj
folder. In all cases the structure of the help and the help folder
name is the same. In the InfoPlist.strings files the right name for
the localize help is defined. Everything works fine for all helps
except for the Italian one. It stopped working and I cannot get it to
open up with anything but a blank page (blank content and no title),
irrespective of whether I choose Help in my apps Help menu, or use
AHGotoPage to jump to a specific help file. I do call
AHRegisterHelpBook to make sure the help book for the current language
gets registered. The Italian help book won't appear in the help
library. Both AHRegisterHelpBook and AHGotoPage return noErr. What on
earth may be going wrong here? I tested on 10.3.5 and 10.3.8. Is this
a known Mac OS X bug? Any "help" appreciated :-)
Cheers,
david.
