Review request for KDE Frameworks and David Faure.


Changes
-------

Fixed the patch


Repository: kconfigwidgets


Description
-------

During the port of KAppTemplate to KF5 I encountered a problem with the help 
invokation by hand - KAppTemplate has a help button in the main window/widget. 
These methods were used:

KDE4: KToolInvocation::invokeHelp("kapptemplate-init", "kapptemplate");
KF5: KHelpClient::invokeHelp("kapptemplate-init", "kapptemplate"); + 
Application name is set

In KDE 4 it worked without a problem, but as soon it was ported to KF5 it 
stopped working. So I debugged the method and saw, that the URL for calling the 
help page has this (wrong) format:

http://kapptemplate/index.html?anchor=kapptemplate-index

So, because the help address is an http-Url, I wrote a fix and the final URL 
now looks like this:

help:/kapptemplate/index.html?anchor=kapptemplate-index

This URL is KHelpCenter-valid and will call KHelpCenter. You can also take a 
look at the else part of that line: If no application is given, _appname is 
used and inserted in the correct url.

As addition: As mentioned, the correct path might (is ?) not correct. But the 
problem is still, that if docPath has some content (In this case: 
"kapptemplate/index.html"), the url is interpreted as http one.


Diffs (updated)

Testing
-------

Testing was done under a project neon 5 system and with the current master 
branch of KConfigWidgets from git. Before installing the patched library, the 
help menu was not invokable from the KAppTemplate application. After installing 
the patching library it was.

Also tested it with Kate help menu item from the "Settings" menu. It is also 
callable from "Settings" --> "Configure Kate" --> "Help" (Bottom left").


Thanks,

Simon Wächter
