Patch providing a prebuilt doc index

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #350828 +++

When searching Eclipse Help for the first time, a search index has to be built. The speed of doing so can be drastically improved when the doc plugin ships a prebuilt help index. 

PDT help should include such an index, such that adopters can search docs faster.

Attached patch adds the pre-built index to the docs when building them.
Please consider for inclusion.

Ping, could my patch be considered please?

This is really just a minimal change with measurable performance gain.

hi Martin,
sorry for late response.

I applied your patch with slight modification (change to plugin.xml was not matching cleanly to HEAD) and invoked a new build to see if index is getting generated properly.

thanks for your patience!
Comment 7 Jacek Pospychala CLA 2012-01-24 07:45:27 EST
Build is done, index folder gets generated, but it's empty.
That's probably because PDT help content were recently moved from plugin to the web to make plugin more lightweight.
Comment 8 Martin Oberhuber CLA 2012-01-24 10:16:27 EST
Hmm, how is help search expected to work when content is on the web only ?
Comment 9 Jacek Pospychala CLA 2012-01-25 04:37:38 EST
I guess it doesn't.
Opened #369635
