B4J Question Load Help file from B4J Desktop app

[DMW]

Hello all,

I haven't find any source that help me with this question.

How do we load help files (chm-files) inside B4J Desktop apps?

Thanks in advance,
Dennis

Hi,

an option is to use ShowExternalDocument with the help file located in the dirapp folder:

fx.ShowExternalDocument(File.geturi(File.DirApp, "help.chm"))

Thank You, it runs excellent
The more I work with B4J the more I realize how endless it seems to be.
I have the impression it will takes some years to go through all aspects of B4J ;-)

That's true. You are now only using one feature of B4J. B4J is also very good for building servers and with WebSockets and ABMaterial it is also becoming a good choice for building web apps.

Actually, it was Alan's (excellent) work with ABMaterial that pointed me to B4J
