Tag Sense for Foreign Markup Within an RNG Schema
by Eliot Kimber 24 Sep '13

24 Sep '13

For DITA 1.3's new RNG vocabulary support, I've defined an RNG schema for header markup that will be required in all DITA RNG modules and shells. If I set up a validation scenario using this schema then I can validate RNG schemas that use this markup. That is, a scenario that specifies the schema document explicitly. If I put a PI like this: <?xml-model href="urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:rng:vocabularyModuleDesc.rng" schematypens="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"?> in one of these documents, then I can set up a validation scenario that uses the "detect schema" option and it also validates. However, what I don't seem to be able to do is get tag sense within the scope of the foreign markup--I only get options for the base RNG vocabulary. Is there a way to get tag sense for the foreign markup? Cheers, E. -- Eliot Kimber, Owner Contrext, LLC, http://contrext.com DITA Solutions for Publishers and those who publish

Evaluate console output
by Richard Forster 24 Sep '13

24 Sep '13

Hello Oxygen List The console output (transformation log) is overwhelming for many standard users. They won't know what to look for in the log and tend not to check it at all as soon as some kind of output is generated, thereby overlooking potentially grave omissions in the output. Is there a convenient way a) to save the transformation log to disk b) to evaluate it with certain rules? For instance, it would be great if after a PDF transformation we could implement an automated brief check of the log file for occurrences of the string "[ERROR]" or also some pattern for certain warnings. If that string is found in the log file, initiate some action, e.g. renaming the output PDF (e.g. by appending "_errors_in_log" to the file name). Many thanks in advance for any ideas Richard

how do I associate a framework by xml-model PI?
by Imsieke, Gerrit, le-tex 23 Sep '13

23 Sep '13

oXygen folks, I want to associate Wendell Piez’ JATS framework with documents that don’t have a DOCTYPE or a namespace. They rather have an RNG schema associated via an xml-model PI: <?xml-model href="http://hobots.hogrefe.com/schema/hobots.rng" type="application/xml" schematypens="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"?> How can I achieve an RNG-based framework association?

skip non-xml files when running batch validation
by scott ashmead 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Hi, I’m running a batch validation process on a directory tree that contains a large number of XML files. However the directory also contains other types of files such as .txt and .log files. These files are showing up in the error log as follows: System ID: 9703177.log Main validation file: 9703177.logEngine name: oXygen Severity: warning Description: Cannot check file 9703177.log. Unknown extension. These messages are clogging up my error log. Does anyone know of a way to prevent these messages from appearing in the error log? Thank you, Scott

Should Export DITA Map Rewrite Pointers?
by Eliot Kimber 17 Sep '13

17 Sep '13

I have a DITA map that is stored in the RSuite CMS, where all the URLs are RSuite REST URLs of the form: <map> ... <topicref href="/rsuite/rest/v2/content/binary/alias/sales-demo-forward-01.dita"/> </map> This URL will resolve relative to the RSuite server URL, meaning that if the URL is resolved relative to the URL of the map opened from an absolute RSuite REST URL that it will always work (RSuite does not provide URLs that are hierarchical like a file system because there is no single or necessary containment relationship among objects in RSuite). Because the URLs just work, I can, for example, open a DITA map using a URL like: http://localhost:8080/rsuite/rest/v2/content/element/alias/sample-pubmap-no- keys.ditamap And Oxygen is happy with it--I can perform all read-only operations against the map, including export DITA map. However, when I tried that, just to see what I would get, I noticed that the structure of the files as packaged reflected the relative paths from the map to the topics, e.g. "element/alias/sales-demo-forward-01.dita" for the map and "binary/alias/sales-demo-forward-01.dita" for the topics. However, the URLs in the result were not rewritten to reflect the directory structure, so the map as exported doesn't work because it still uses the absolute paths. Obviously this is a somewhat artificial case, but it does demonstrate that the map exporter is making an assumption about the data that is not warranted in this case, namely that URLs are relative. My question: - Should the map exporter handle this case and rewrite pointers to reflect the location of the targets in the export location? - Should the exporter detect the use of absolute resource parts and make the output structure reflect those paths? That is, should the exported structure have started with /rsuite rather than "sample-pubmap-no-keys"?

Behavior of Open/Find Resource Dialog
by Eliot Kimber 16 Sep '13

16 Sep '13

I'm finding the open/find resource dialog very handy, but I was surprised that opening it from a selected folder in a project does not limit its search to that folder, which is what I wanted. Is that a reasonable expectation? Also, is there the possibility of regular expression search against filenames? I didn't see an indication of that in the dialog or the online help.

Looking for a creative solution for an image report
by KAATMAN Matthew 16 Sep '13

16 Sep '13

I'd like to be able to get a list of images (paths + filenames) referenced from the topics within a map including those referenced from within SVGs. So far I've been doing fairly hackish things like using File/Replace in Files with a regular expression of \. And restrict to Xpath: //image[@href] using only attribute values. Then deduping the list and removing garbage but there's got to be a better way to get an accurate list quickly. Any thoughts?

Fwd: Expath exists() bug?
by Wendell Piez 12 Sep '13

12 Sep '13

oXygen users -- Yesterday I mistakenly sent a message meant for this list to oXygen-support instead. There, Alex Jitianu has been very helpful, but he also suggests I send it again here as well, in case readers have any good ideas -- Thanks! Wendell Wendell Piez | http://www.wendellpiez.com XML | XSLT | electronic publishing Eat Your Vegetables _____oo_________o_o___ooooo____ooooooo_^ ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Wendell Piez <wapiez(a)wendellpiez.com> Date: Wed, Sep 11, 2013 at 6:19 PM Subject: Expath exists() bug? To: Oxygen XML Editor Support <support(a)oxygenxml.com> Hi, I know this isn't an oXygen question per se, but I'm sure you guys (and maybe other readers of this list) will have insight. (Especially if the problem is between my chair and my keyboard, where problems have been known to occur in the past.) Consider this stylesheet: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:expath="http://expath.org/ns/file" version="2.0"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:text>Base URI is </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="base-uri(.)"/> <xsl:text>: </xsl:text> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="expath:exists(base-uri(.))">File found</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>File not found</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Run on itself (using Saxon9 in oXygen 15), the stylesheet should generate its own path in the system, followed by "File found", when expath:exists() returns true for the base URI of the root of the source document, i.e. the stylesheet. However, when I locate this on my system in a subdirectory whose name contains a space, I get "file not found". The Expath spec at http://expath.org/spec/file#d3e112 covers this. Saxon's base-uri() correctly escapes a space with '%20', as the stylesheet reports. But expath:exists() in oXygen (or in Saxon as the case may be) fails to return true() for this URI. (If I replace(base-uri(.),'%20',' ') it finds the file. But I would rather not do this as it doesn't really solve the problem.) What am I doing wrong? If there's a problem I can't fix, is there a workaround you can suggest? I know that one obvious solution is never to use spaces in my subdirectory or file names -- as indeed I do not. Unfortunately, in this instance I cannot convince my client (or rather, my client's client) to renounce this vicious habit. Thanks!

Support for "Document Templating Steps for XProc", AKA p:document
by Florent Georges 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi, XProc completion in oXygen is apparently about XProc 1.0 [1] with no support for Document Templating Steps [2]. Which is a pity considering that p:template is probably one of the most useful step in XProc. Any chance to get the schema updated in the next version? Kind regards, -- Florent Georges http://fgeorges.org/ http://h2oconsulting.be/
