Missing xmlreadhelper.js file when checking in to source control

Hi.

I've inherited many help files in this job, one of which outputs to WebHelp. I checked out the files, then updated and generated them. I got no errors and viewed the output just fine. Now when I try to check the files back in, I get an error about this missing file and cannot check in the rest of the files. I wanted to ask if anyone knows what the xmlreadhelper.js file is for before summarily deleting it from source control.

Thanks,

Dimi Mestier

OK, I found a few other "missing" files in source control and just used "undo" for them. Project is checked in!

You're running into this issue when checking the RH project files back in or the generated WebHelp output files in? I'm not sure which you are talking about..

Checking in all of RH files.

Strangely enough, source control shows that the file is checked out, but it never made it to my local directory. I can probably just cancel the checkout of that file and then check in the rest.
