Description Ankur Sharma CLA 2009-05-13 09:35:47 EDT
The help file "guide/tools/launchers/launchers.htm" was there till Eclipse 3.4.2
Since lauchers are pretty much same, I feel this file got deleted by mistake.

Side note: In case we find the deletion was intentional, the topic launcher_application_selection\Launchers needs to be updated in o.e.pde.doc.user\contexts_PDE.xml

It is quite possible that the deletion was intentional.  A lot of the top level html files for each area in the guide have no useful information and were way out of date.  By deleting them, the help system will create a default file listing all topics underneath in the table of contents.

It would be good to have an overview of launching, perhaps a task on how to set things up.  However, for now we may just want to delete the broken link.
