Step 5 - Registering Part 2
[Integrating HXS with MSDN Collection]

This step explains how to integrate your stand alone .hxs file and integrate it with the MSDN Collection.

There are several methods for registering a child namespace in parent namespace, some are explained below.

Method One - Visual Studio .NET

This is described fully in the section "Customizing the Help Registration":

   ms-help://MS.VSCC/ms.vshik/vshikcommon/html/Integrating_Help_in_Visual_Studio.doc 

Method Two - VSCC

The VSCC help contains a page which lists collections available for inclusion in VSCC. RenderWare Graphics API Reference should be listed.

 ms-help://MS.VSCC/vsccCommon/cm/CollectionManager.htm 

Method Three - H2Reg

The h2reg.exe program enables you to register child namespaces. This program is free to try, but a license does involve a small cost. It can be downloaded from: http://www.helpware.net/mshelp2/h2reg.htm

1. Open the H2Reg.ini file. The default location is: C:\Program Files\Helpware\H2Reg.

2. Edit the H2Reg.ini file. In the [Reg_Plugin] section add:

    [Reg_Plugin]
      ;<nsName_Parent>|<HxT_Parent>|<nsName_Child>|<HxT_Child>|<HxA_Child>
       MS.VSCC|_default|RWG.D3D8|_default|    

   • MS.VSCC parent namespace
   • _default uses default Parent TOC.
   • RWG.D3D8 child namespace
   • _default uses default Child TOC.

Note:

If help files are moved, the new path needs to be registered.
