XProject plugin for oXygen
by Florent Georges 03 May '12

03 May '12

Hi, I have just release a new plugin for the oXygen XML IDE, in order to support XProject, the XML Project Manager tool. More infos on the XProject page at http://expath.org/modules/xproject/. XProject (loosly) defines a directory structure for an XML project: my-project/ src/ ... xproject/ project.xml The subdir src/ has whatever structure you want for your XML files, XSLT stylesheets, XQuery modules, XProc pipelines, resource files, and everything that is part of your project. The subdir xproject/ contains meta informations about your project. E.g. project.xml contains its name and version number, as well as several processors configuration for unit-testing purposes. Based on conventions for the components filename (i.e. *.xsl for stylesheets, *.xql for XQuery library modules, *.xq, *.xqy or *.xquery for XQuery main modules, etc.) it detects them in src/, and based on annotations in those files, it generates automatically a package descriptor and create the package for you. You can also generate a "delivery file" that contains the package, a README file, examples and source code. Or automatically launch unit- tests using XSpec. Or generate documentation for your XQuery modules using xquerydoc. Every dependency is already included in the plugin. To install, download the file xproject-oxygen-plugin-0.3.0.zip from: http://code.google.com/p/expath-pkg/downloads/list and unzip it in your oXygen install dir, in the subdir plugins/ (or copy the dir xproject/ which is at the root of the ZIP file into <your-oxygen>/plugins/). The next time you start oXygen, you will have 4 more buttons in the toolbar, named "Build", "Test", "Doc" and "Release". While editing any file within your project directory, you can click one of those buttons to execute the corresponding XProject target. "Build" creates a new package in dist/ based on src/, "Test" run the XSpec tests in test/ and place the reports in the same dir (see the sample project in the ZIP to see how to configure your processors and XML databases to run the tests), "Doc" places the XQuery documentation in dist/xqdoc/, and "Release" creates a new delivery file in dist/. The packages created by "Build" can be installed automatically in any EXPath Packaging System-compliant system. Any feedback, help, request for improvement is welcome! In particular, I would like to know how I can help a user creating a new project from within oXygen (e.g. by displaying a form to fill in the basic info like its name, version, etc. and create the project structure, and possibly by creating an Author mode for the project.xml files). Enjoy! -- Florent Georges http://fgeorges.org/ http://h2oconsulting.be/

extension behaving strangely
by Roderik Dernison 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Hi, I encounter some strange behaviour in an extension I wrote. I made a search button respond to the enter key. In Eclipse it responds immediately, but in oXygen a user has to use the enter key twice to make the extension respond. I did this to make it work: btnSearch.registerKeyboardAction(btnSearch.getActionForKeyStroke(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_SPACE, 0, false)), KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0, false), JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW); btnSearch.registerKeyboardAction(btnSearch.getActionForKeyStroke(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_SPACE, 0, true)), KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0, true), JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW); btnSearch.addActionListener(this); What should I do to make it respond immediately in oXygen?

Turn off indent ("pretty print") in oXygen XML Editor 13.2?
by Yves Barbion 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

Hi group When I create a new DITA topic in oXygen XML Editor 13.2, I see that indent (aka "pretty print") is used when I look at the content in plain text view. Is there a way to turn off indent in the oXygen preferences? I have deselected the following options in Preferences > Editor > Format, but this does not seem to work (the text is still indented in plain text view): * Detect indent on open * Indent on enter * Format and indent the document on open Thanks -- Yves Barbion www.scripto.nu

How to set language to self defined element?
by Roderik Dernison 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

Hi, I try to add an xml:lang attribute to an element in my schema. There is some (very short) explanation how this should be done in xml.xsd, but that doesn't work out for me. I have some elements that extend the ph-element. Can you please explain to me how to set the xml:lang attribute so spell check can be done on these elements? Eg. <example xml:lang="nl">Dit is een voorbeeld</example> <word xml:lang="frisian">Dit is een woord</word> Kind regards, Roderik Dernison ________________________________ ---------------------------------------------------------- Aan dit bericht kunnen geen rechten worden ontleend.

XInclude and WebDAV
by Jens Østergaard Petersen 14 Mar '12

14 Mar '12

Hi, On the eXist mailing list, an issue with XInlude and the oXygen Data Source Explorer has been discussed which has not found a solution. It is described in a ticket - the ticket has been closed since the problem was not regarded as relating to eXist. <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3422989&group_id=17691&atid…> The problem is that when a document containing an XInclude is opened through the Data Source Explorer from an eXist database, the XInclude is expanded in oXygen and becomes a static part of the including document. The whole idea behind XIncludes is therefore lost. Best, Jens

Can I use call-templates when nested in multiple choose when when ?
by McGibbney, Lewis John 10 Mar '12

10 Mar '12

Hi Everyone, I have the following template <xsl:template name ="createBody" match="html:html/html:body"> ... some stuff... ... <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="path/to/particular/html/element/attribute"> <xsl:when test="path/to/another/html/element/attribute"> <xsl:call-template name="createStandardHead"/> </xsl:when> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> do some stuff </xsl:otherwise> Let me explain a bit, I wish to call the createStandardHeader template if the XHTML looks like this <body> <div id="content"> <div id="page1" class="page css-gen1"> <div id="Layer1">6.1 </div> <div style="width:205pt;height:12pt;left:34pt;top:33pt"> <div style="top:9pt"> <span class="css-gen2"> <span>Part 1</span> </span> </div> </div> <div style="width:56pt;height:76pt;left:63pt;top:81pt"> <a name="energ61" id="energ61"></a> <div style="left:5pt;top:10pt"> <span class="css-gen3"> <span class="css-gen4">standard</span> </span> </div> <div style="top:51pt"> <span class="css-gen5"> <span class="css-gen4">mandatory</span> </span> </div> </div> e.g if html:html/html:body/html:div/html:div/html:div[2]/html:div[1]/html:span[@class='css-gen3'] and html:html/html:body/html:div/html:div/html:div[2]/html:div[2]/html:span[@class='css-gen5'] then call-template createStandardHead, which will process the text() values for these elements accordingly. My question is, is this possible? I've tried altering, changing it quite a bit and can quite seem to crack it. One final thing, REGARDLESS of whether the createStandardHeader template is called or not it is imperative that I process the stuff in <xsl:otherwise> e.g after I perform the check for the above XHTML structure. Thanks in advance for any help. Have a great weekend.

Using my own Ant build file in a DITA scenario
by Florent Georges 08 Mar '12

08 Mar '12

Hi, I tried to use a custom Ant build file for one of my DITA scenarios. Within that script, I import the Ant script from DITA OT in the oXygen distribution, and I set a value for a specific property: <project basedir="." name="..."> <import file="/.../frameworks/dita/DITA-OT/demo/fo/build.xml"/> <property name="some.ot.prop" value="..."/> </project> The problem is that the build.xml in oXygen distro contains import instructions with properties: <import file="${dita.plugin.org.dita.pdf2.dir}/build_fop.xml"/> <import file="${dita.plugin.org.dita.pdf2.dir}/build_axf.xml"/> <import file="${dita.plugin.org.dita.pdf2.dir}/build_xep.xml"/> and when I run the transform scenario, Ant complains that it cannot find the file /.../fo/${dita.plugin.org.dita.pdf2.dir}/build_fop.xml (see? the property has not been expanded). The error is: BUILD FAILED /.../my-build.xml:3: The following error occurred while executing this line: /.../fo/build.xml:29: Cannot find /.../fo/${dita.plugin.org.dita.pdf2.dir}/build_fop.xml imported from /.../fo/build.xml What did I miss? How can I make sure the same properties are loaded in both cases? Is there any built-in mechanism in oXygen to overload Ant properties without setting my own build file?

Integrators to assist with complex customizations?
by Stephen Perkins 07 Mar '12

07 Mar '12

Hi, With some of our clients evaluating a migration from XMetaL Author to oXygen Author we're fielding questions regarding the transferability of certain types of editing software customizations. Trouble is, we haven't done a whole lot of oXygen framework building . . . yet. I think we've done a fair assessment of the basics with actions, toolbars, menus, content completion, etc. but have some questions about a few things: building forms that interact with open documents, confirming our assumptions about technical approach, deployments, and confirming our estimates for creating relatively complex frameworks. I'm seeking a resource (or recommendation for one) with experience in creating advanced frameworks to speak to. Feel free to contact me off list.
