Share Files between different Qt Help Project Files

alexkorr

Hi

I would like to share Javascript source files between different Qt Help Project files. Example:

I have two qhp files

helpA.qhp

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<QtHelpProject version="1.0">
<namespace>namespaceA</namespace>
<virtualFolder>doc</virtualFolder>
<filterSection>
<toc>
<section title="Title Help A" ref="indexA.html">
</section>
</toc>
<files>
<file>script.js</file>
</files>
</filterSection>
</QtHelpProject>

helpB.qhp

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<QtHelpProject version="1.0">
<namespace>namespaceB</namespace>
<virtualFolder>doc</virtualFolder>
<filterSection>
<toc>
<section title="Title Help B" ref="indexB.html">
</section>
</toc>
</filterSection>
</QtHelpProject>

For both files indexA.html and indexB.html I am referencing the javascript using:

<script src="script.js"></script>

When I compress helpA.qch then the javascript is properly loaded. However in helpB.qch the javascript is not found. I was thinking this should be fine, since both help project files specify the same virtual folder.

How can I share files between different .qch files?

Thanks and best regards

The URLs passed to QTextEdit::loadResource() in my project are qthelp://<namespace>/<virtualFolder>/<relative path...>. Based on this, I presume that sharing between namespaces can be accomplished referencing an absolute path including the namespace and virtual folder, or a relative path that ascends the parent hierarchy as appropriate.

An alternative is to check for script.js in every request.

Edit: QUrl::host() reports the namespace. A relative path using ../ doesn't appear to be an option.
