###### API Information:

The supplied content producer class must implement the `org.eclipse.help.IHelpContentProducer` interface. The producer is responsible for providing content for dynamic help resources from a plug-in. The method of content producer is called by help for every help resource obtained from the plug-in.

###### Supplied Implementation:

None. If a documentation plug-in does not provide help content producer or a call to it results in null, help system searches doc.zip and file system in the plug-in install location for a static document and displays its content.
