[Lazarus] Laz trunk+FPC trunk Windows - experiences with help

[Reinier Olislagers]

Hi list,

I'm getting a lot of errors trying to get context-sensitive help with lhelp.
(in my patched copy of Lazarus; see second patch in
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=24743)
Lhelp will start up but give "Cannot handle this type of subcontent:
"file://" for url: file://
It looks like the actual file name of the chm file is not being received
by lhelp.

Normally I would always blame the compiler and/or RTL/FCL for my own or
other people's incorrect code ;) but I'm starting to suspect recent
fixes in simpleipc may have messed things up.

I'm going to have a look at that but first wanted to know whether other
people with the config listed in the subject have the same issues (or
whether it's PEBKAC/machine dependent).

Alternatively, review and correction of the patch in
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=24743
would be very welcome, too ;)

Finally, I would be grateful if somebody could indicate if my patch
works for FPC trunk+Lazarus trunk?

Thanks,
Reinier
