<![CDATA[QHelpEngine usage]]>Hi all

I'm trying to access my assistant-based user manual from the application itself using QHelpEngine ad I have some question:

is it normal that opening a non-existing compressed file does not return any errors ?

QHelpEngine* helpEngine = new QHelpEngine("missingfile.qhc", this);
if (!helpEngine->setupData()) qDebug("last error: '%s'", qPrintable(helpEngine->error()));

I spent a lot of time trying to get references for identifiers...

links = helpEngine->linksForIdentifier(QLatin1String("mykeyword"));
return no reference UNTIL you add in your in your .qhp file the id attribute...
<keyword name="Index" id="Index" ref="./index.html"/>
but I found nothing in the docs about it...

     Best Regards

            Giampaolo

anyone has succesfully retrieved from the QHelpEngine more than one item (url) for a key with the linksForIdentifier() method ?

actually with QHelpEngine I always obtain zero or one items... but never more than one, while with the same search key (and compressed help file) in Qt Assistant I get more entries...

  thanks for any idea
