Class HelpCommand

java.lang.Object

com.ibm.java.diagnostics.utils.commands.BaseCommand

com.ibm.jvm.dtfjview.commands.BaseJdmpviewCommand

com.ibm.jvm.dtfjview.commands.HelpCommand

All Implemented Interfaces:

ICommand

public class HelpCommand
extends BaseJdmpviewCommand

Prints out either a help summary for all commands in this context or forwards the request onto a particular command for a detailed output. Note that the context command is a 'pseudo-command' in that it is what controls switching contexts and so is never actually in the list of commands available for the current context. The help entries for the context command are therefore added manually.
