20.3.7.5 Adding custom helpset sections for JavaHelp 2

JavaHelp 2 supports additional entries in the helpset file, such as an <impl> section; see the JavaHelp System User’s Guide for information about this feature.

To add custom entries to the helpset, list the code for each entry in the following configuration-file section. For example:

[JH2_HelpsetAddition]
; Optional section used for literal additions to the JH2 <helpset>
<impl>
  <helpsetregistry helpbrokerclass="javax.help.DefaultHelpBroker" />
  <viewerregistry viewertype="text/html" 
    viewerclass="com.sun.java.help.impl.CustomKit" />
  <viewerregistry viewertype="text/xml" 
    viewerclass="com.sun.java.help.impl.CustomXMLKit" />
</impl>

You can put anything you please in section [JH2_HelpsetAddition], and whatever you add is included in the helpset file; for example, you can add your own <presentation> sections.

If DITA2Go does not rewrite the helpset file each time (see §20.3.7.3 Deciding whether to rewrite the helpset file), you could simply add custom sections directly to the helpset file.
