To install and configure Oracle Smart View for Office help locally or on a web server:
For example:
Extract the contents locally to:
C:\Oracle\SmartView\
The extraction adds an additional folder named smartview_help
. The result is:
C:\Oracle\SmartView\smartview_help
Extract the contents to a web server:
http://webServerHost:webServerPort/pathToHelpFiles
The extractions adds smartview_help
after pathToHelpFiles
. The result is:
http://webServerHost:webServerPort/pathToHelpFiles/smartview_help
Under the smartview_help
folder, there are 28 language folders; for example:
C:\Oracle\SmartView \smartview_help \ar \cs \da \de \el \en \es \fi \fr \fr_CA \he \hu \it \ja \ko \nl \no \pl \pt \pt_BR \ro \ru \sk \sv \th \tr \zh_CN \zh_TW
The following language folders contain translated versions of the Smart View help:
\de \es \fr \it \ja \ko \nl \pt_BR \zh_CN \zh_TW
The remaining language folders contain the English version of the help. When you run Smart View in one of those languages (for example, Swedish) and you click a button for Help, the English help is displayed.
Additionally, the English folder contains a copy of the help in PDF format, smartview_user.pdf
.
helpurlcontext
property in the Smart View properties.xml
file:
SmartView\cfg
folder.properties.xml
file.properties.xml
for editing.helpurlcontext
property, providing the path to the folder that is parent to the language folders using the following syntax:
If installing locally, provide the path to the folder that is parent to the language folders using the following syntax:
<helpurlcontext>file:///parent_language_folder_path/</helpurlcontext>
Tip:
Use forward slashes in the syntax and ensure that you enter a final forward slash (/) after the parent language folder path that you provide.
Using the example from step 2, after extracting the zip contents to C:\Oracle\SmartView
, the smartview_help
folder is the parent folder of the language folders. Thus, you would modify the parent_language_folder_path placeholder as follows:
<helpurlcontext>file:///C:/Oracle/SmartView/smartview_help/</helpurlcontext>
If installing on a web server, provide the path to the folder that is parent to the language folders using the following syntax:
<helpurlcontext>http://webServerHost:webServerPort/pathToHelpFiles/smartview_help/</helpurlcontext>
Tip:
Use forward slashes in the syntax and ensure that you enter a final forward slash (/) after the parent language folder path that you provide.
Using the example from step 2 and substituting user_documentation
for pathToHelpFiles
, after extracting the zip contents to http://abcxyzco.com:12345/user_documentation
, the smartview_help
folder is the parent folder of the language folders. For example:
<helpurlcontext>http://abcxyzco.com:12345/user_documentation/smartview_help/</helpurlcontext>
