XProc integration API - representing input/output data
by Toman_Vojtech＠emc.com 12 Oct '09

12 Oct '09

Hello, I have two questions about dealing with inputs/outputs in the XProc integration API: 1. The APIs are URL-based. Does that mean that the results of running the pipeline must always be saved somewhere (for instance, as temporary documents in /tmp) by the implementation of XProcTransformerInterface? 2. I don't understand how sequence outputs are supported in the API. The XProcInputPortInterface interface uses an array for specifying the URLs for a given input port. Similar to input ports that can take sequences of documents, output ports can also produce sequences - but the XProcOutputPortInterface contains only the getUrl() method. Do I understand it correctly that after the pipeline has finished, the XProc integration code is supposed to store the result data for the output ports to the URL provided by the corresponding getUrl() methods? If so, how does this work with sequences? And what is the method showInSequenceView() meant for?

XProc integration API - pipeline options
by Toman_Vojtech＠emc.com 12 Oct '09

12 Oct '09

Hello, I am just looking at the XProc integration API (many thanks for this!), but it seems to me that it is not complete. I can see that the API supports specifying data for the input ports of an XProc pipeline, but it does not make it possible to provide values for options to the XProc processor. For instance, consider the following pipeline: <p:pipeline> <p:option name="dir" required="true"/> ... </p:pipeline> How can I provide the value for the "dir" option to the XProc processor using the integration API?

Archive Browser, Map Browser: File chooser reflects file in edit pane, not in browser pane
by ekimber 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

I have "Directory of edited file" selected as my setting for File chooser opens in". This has the effect that the file chooser for the Archive Browser reflects the currently edited file, not the currently edited *archive*. The behavior I want (and expected) would be that the archive browser File open (as opposed to the main File open) would reflect the location of the currently edited archive, not edited file. Those two will almost never have a useful relationship to each other. In fact, for the archive browser, I'd much rather have the File open reflect the last opened *archive* location since it's likely I'm opening multiple archives from the same location (e.g., IDML packages or DOCX files for a set of chapters for a book).

Feature Request: Archive filename variable for scenario configuration
by ekimber 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

I do transforms against files in DOCX and IDML packages. The XML files have generic names, e.g. Document.xml or random names. But the output needs to reflect the name of the archive (e.g., mydoc.docx). Would it be possible to provide the archive name as a variable when a document being processed is from an archive?

Useful Feature?: Don't Use Author if No Associated CSS
by ekimber 04 Oct '09

04 Oct '09

I edit a lot of random XML files for which there will never be a CSS but I also do heads-down writing in Author mode. For the latter I have "open in Author" set as the default. However, when I open any non-authored XML file, it gets the "There is no associated CSS" treatment, which I then have to switch to the text mode. I think it might make sense to have a general option "Open in text mode if no CSS" so that Oxygen just does the right thing for this sort of environment. You wouldn't want this to be the only behavior, or even necessarily the default behavior, but I'd like it to be the behavior I get.
