URI Handler Question: Escaping/Unescaping URIs
by Eliot Kimber 06 Nov '07

06 Nov '07

I don't know if anything I'm doing here is correct, but here's what I'm trying to do: In my plugin I'm producing URIs that look like this: RSUITE:/Some Path/Another Folder/Some File Name With Spaces?moid=123 I was doing this in my chooseURL() method: Return url = new URL(urlString); Where "urlString" would be the string above (that is, the string with spaces unescaped). The problem I ran into was that on close the URL that came back had all the spaces escaped so that the URL produced by chooseURL() and the one used by getOutputStream() did not compare as equal (which was a problem because I was using the URL as a key to get back to my private data structures representing the repository object). I solved the problem by doing this: urlString = RSUITE_PROTOCOL + ":" + URLEncoder.encode(resId, "utf-8"); urlString = urlString.replaceAll("\\+", "%20"); Where "resId" is the part of the URL following the "RSUITE:. This works in my (limited) tests but I don't think it's a complete solution. My question is: is there a better way to be escaping and unscaping the URI string so that what Oxygen calls getOutputStream() on matches what I originally construct. The other thing I noticed was that if I didn't change the "+" to "%20" then in the Oxygen UI the "+" characters show up (e.g., in the label on the tab for the document) but if I change them to "%20" then you get spaces, which is what I want. What is the right/best way to handle the escaping and unescaping in this environment? Thanks, Eliot -- W. Eliot Kimber Senior Solutions Architect Really Strategies, Inc.

Plugin Failure at Startup When Used In Previous Editing Session
by Eliot Kimber 06 Nov '07

06 Nov '07

I have my plugin minimally working now but I'm running into a problem. If I edit a file using my plug-in and, with that file still open in the editor, close Oxygen, then when I open Oxygen again, I get a "Plugins-Errors" message box from Oxygen indicating an InvocationTargetException on my plug in class and these messages in the log: 1 WARN [ main ] ro.sync.G.W - Invalid field : systemID for class ro.sync.exml.I.B.A. ro.sync.G.B: Invalid serialized URL : rsuite:/.manageable-objects/6 1 WARN [ main ] ro.sync.G.W - Skip invalid object ro.sync.G.D: Missing system ID in the mark location. 1362 WARN [ main ] ro.sync.G.W - Invalid field : defaultScenario for class ro.sync.exml.I._.B.U. java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space 4270 DEBUG [ main ] com.reallysi.rsuite.client.oxygen.RSuiteUriProtocolPlugin - in getURLSTreamHandlder(), returning new RSuiteUriProtocolHandler(): 13297080 And then a lot of these: 10967 DEBUG [ main ] com.reallysi.rsuite.client.oxygen.RSuitePlugin - In RSuitePlugin constructor 10968 ERROR [ main ] com.reallysi.rsuite.client.oxygen.RSuitePlugin - instance member variable is not null, throwing IllegalStateException But I'm not getting any messages from any other components of my plug-in so I'm not sure what I should be doing to prevent this failure.

Javadoc for extensions API?
by Martin Holz 05 Nov '07

05 Nov '07

Hello, is there some API reference for ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.AuthorOperation and related classes available? Chapter 6 of the users manual is nice, but not enough and the OxygenPluginsDevelopmentKit.zip does not contain the "authors extensions". Thanks Martin

Hello, Is there a way to batch edit files? For example, I'd like to add the line: "<dcvalue element="x" qualifier="y">zzzz</dcvalue> To each of the 1000 files I have in a specific directory. Is this possible? Thanks, Uri Kolodney The University of Texas Libraries

Vista Crash
by harvey 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

My old XP system needed upgrading - basically because Oxygen was very slow. Yesterday I bought a new desktop computer with 3 Gigabytes of memory and was looking forward to fast transformations |-)! I installed Oxygen and everything looked great. I tried running a transformation that takes 2 seconds on my old XP with 512 megabytes of memory and the transformation took 5 minutes. I tried it again and got a message saying to increate the "-Xmx" in Oxygen.bat. I increased it from 256m to 512m then to 1g and am still having the same problem. I couldn't find any information on the archives. Anyone have any advice on solving this problem. TIA!
