| <div><p>Successful delivery of dynamic context-sensitive help requires a close |
| coordination of UI components and UA components. It imposes responsibilities on |
| both Development teams and Documentation teams, and it requires ongoing |
| collaboration among those teams. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <p>Development teams must provide lists of helpKey constants to Documentation |
| teams, and they must provide information about the UI control associated with |
| each helpKey constant. Development teams must also provide timely updates to |
| Documentation teams when any change occurs in the helpKey constants. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Documentation teams must rely on the information provided by Development teams |
| to locate the UI controls, analyze the help contexts, and create appropriate UA |
| content in various formats. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Since a context-sensitive help plug-in can contribute helpKey properties files |
| and context XML files that support several UI plug-ins, Documentation teams must |
| carefully evaluate the “component level” with which online documentation |
| plug-ins and their corresponding context-sensitive help plug-ins are associated. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>Both Development teams and Documentation teams must rely on the project’s |
| architectural specifications to determine the appropriate capabilities and |
| features with which to coordinate UI and UA components. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <p>And finally, both Development teams and Documentation teams must test the |
| context-sensitive help UI implementation and the context-sensitive help |
| UA plug-ins. |
