How do I create a custom help for my own Eclipse plugin?

I'm developing a new Eclipse plugin which needs to use a custom help in the Java project wizard as I show below.

Java Project Wizard Page 1

Java Project Wizard Page 1

And ...

Java Project Wizard Page 2

Java Project Wizard Page 2

These two pages use the same as help? if not.

How do I create a help for each page or Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

Assuming you are deriving your wizard pages from NewJavaProjectWizardPageOne and NewJavaProjectWizardPageTwo you can set a new help context id by overriding the setControl method:

@Override
protected void setControl(Control newControl) {
  super.setControl(newControl);

  PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getHelpSystem().setHelp(newControl, "your help context id");
}

where 'your help context id' is a help context id declared in a contexts xml file using the org.eclipse.help.contexts extension point in the usual way.
