Hi,

I am working with Qt4.4.0's Help Module.

I am trying to register my application specific compressed help file with the assistant by running following command.

assistant.exe -register myapp.qch

But I am getting the error "Missing collection file" !!!.

I am sure that there is nothing wrong with my compressed help file because I am able to view my help contents using Help Engine APIs.

I am trying to merge my compressed file with assistant's collection file. But I wonder why do I get this "Missing Collection file!" error.
If I dont mention -collectionFile argument while starting assistant , assistant should start by taking default collection file as far as my knowledge goes.

Can anyone tell me whats wrong?

Regards

In Continuation with my last message,

It is also possible to register the compessed help file after assistant is launched.
.qch file has to be registered by doing Edit->Preferences->Documentation

This works fine and I can see the my help contents if I search in Index.
