Preferences–General–Help

Use the Help preferences to select the location of the TopLink documentation (in addition to the online Help) and other Help system preferences.

By default, TopLink installs includes only the online Help and release notes. All other documentation (such as Oracle TopLink Getting Started Guide and Oracle TopLink Developer's Guide) can be accessed from a hosted location.

Use the following information to enter data in each field:

Field | Description
--- | ---
Display Welcome at Startup | Specify if TopLink should show the Welcome screen each time you start TopLink Workbench.
External HTML Browser | Click Browse and select the location of your default Web browser. You must specify a Web browser to access the Quick Tour, Javadoc (API), and other Web-based material.
Hosted Help Content Foot 1 | Access the complete TopLink documentation set located on Oracle Technology Network (OTN). Selecting this option requires your PC to have Internet access. Note: Depending on your Internet connection, using Hosted Documentation may impact performance when searching the documentation.
Local Help Content Footref 1 | Access the complete TopLink documentation set from a local location (such as your PC or your company's intranet). Click Browse and select the help JAR file location.

Footnote 1 You must restart TopLink Workbench to apply changes to this option.

Note: When using Hosted Help Content, ensure that your proxy information, specified in the Preferences–General, is correct. When using Local Help Content, download the complete documentation from OTN. See Oracle TopLink Getting Started Guide for more information.
