    Need help for registering a .Hxa file using InnovaHxReg.exe...

     Hi,

          I am using Innovasys HelpStudio 3.0 version 3.5.0.34, Build 3.00.0188.

    I am trying to register a .Hxa which has topic types like: ApiRef, Book, Book Excerpt, Interview, Article, Procedure, Orientation, Reference, Sample, Syntax, as Help Attributes. These topic types are seen under VS2005/2008->Tools-Options->Environment->Help->Dynamic Help. These topic types are only displayed after MSDN Library is installed. And is a essential pre-requisite for the Dynamic Help to be displayed.

    I have a VSX (Visual Studio Extensibility) application which dispays Dynamic Help (Help 2.x) in both Isolated & Integrated mode. I am trying to enable the Dynamic Help in my app. without the MSDN being installed. Hence the need for registering a .Hxa file with the above topic types.

    Innovasys Help shows the following help under the topic "InnovaHxReg Usage ":

     

    /Hxa:<hxa> Specifies the product HXA for the plug-in (use with /R /P and /U /P)

    Using the help shown, I tried this:

    InnovaHxReg /R /P /productnamespace:MS.VSIPCC.v90 /producthxa:_DEFAULT /namespace:DpdfDesigner /hxa:TopicTypes.hxa

    it threw an error:

    Invalid or unrecognised commandline argument /producthxa:_DEFAULT.
    For usage type InnovaHxReg.exe /?

    Could you pls. let me know if its possible to create the topic type on our own without installing MSDN VS 2008 Library documentation using  InnovaHxReg.exe & its correct usage to register the .Hxa file?

    Regards,

    Venkat
