Bug/Feature Request for Schema Documentation Generation
by W. Eliot Kimber 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

In my XSD schema I have attribute declarations with documentation annotations within the attribute declaration, like so: <xs:attribute name="number" type="xs:int" use="required"> <xs:annotation> <xs:documentation> <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <h3>A Number</h3> <p>A number from one to 10.</p> </div> </xs:documentation> </xs:annotation> I notice that the contents of the annotation is being output in the XML Instance Representation following the type indictator. This is not really very useful and certainly not what I expected. Is this a bug in the schema generation? If it's not a bug, can I submit a feature request to do something more useful with attribute-level documentation, such as put it out following any element- type-level documentation, labeled with the attribute name? I'd take a shot at it myself right now except that I'm already fully occupied at the moment. For now I can just move the documentation up to the element but I really want to have documentation bound as close to the thing documented as possible. Thanks, Eliot -- W.

Allowing Ant Editor to Edit XML Files Other Than build.xml in Eclipse
by W. Eliot Kimber 30 Jan '07

30 Jan '07

In the DITA Open Toolkit there are lots of Ant scripts named "build_xxx.xml". For some reason, Eclipse only shows Oxygen and the built-in text editor when I do an "Open with..." on one of those files. Within content types, the "Ant buildfile" is associated with *.xml and likewise, under File associations, *.xml is associated with both the Ant editor and Oxygen. So I can't figure out why Eclipse doesn't provide the Ant editor as an option for Open with... While Oxygen is lovely it is not the best editor editing Ant files... Cheers, Eliot -- W.

Autodetection tool of the type of document
by mozer 29 Jan '07

29 Jan '07

Dear, While using new functionnalities of OxygenXML on NVDL, I was wondering why on opening an XML file with (.xml) extension, but containing an XML document with nvdl namespace, the tool don't detect it as NVDL document So, even if Christmas is already gone, here is my wish list : * An autodectect tool, that on finishing openning tools look at Namespaces available in the document and propose to open it as if it where an XML Schema, Relax NG, XSLT, etc. * At least, a menu and a click right button, to assign that view as if it was a document of type XML Schema, Relax NG, XSLT etc... Regards Xmlizer

Setting up and using Catalogs for XSD-Based Documents
by W. Eliot Kimber 25 Jan '07

25 Jan '07

I'm trying, pretty much for the first time, to configure Oxygen 8.1 to use a catalog to resolve noNamespaceSchemaLocation= values. For example, I have this document root element: <map xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:map" > (The URN is one I made up just for testing) And this catalog: <catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog" prefer="public"> <group xml:base="schema/"> <uri name="urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:map" uri="map.xsd"/> <public publicId="urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:map" uri="map.xsd"/> </group> </catalog> Where schema/ is a directory below the directory containing the catalog and the files are there (that is, a document in the same directory as the catalog with this root element is valid: <map xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="./schema/map.xsd"> I have turned on catalog verbosity and I can see in the catalogs tab that my catalog is being loaded, but I'm not sure what the "Public: " messages are telling me, but I'm seeing entries like this: SystemID: null Description: Public: null System: file:/C:/projects/DITA-OT1.3.1/schema/tblDeclMod.xsd = null In any case, my document that uses the URN is not being validated--I get the "there is no schema or DTD associated with this document" message. Is this user error or a limitation of the catalog mechanism? Thanks, Eliot -- W. Eliot Kimber Professional Services Innodata Isogen 8500 N.

Does this site have anything to do with real oxygen use or just a computer site? John

Oxygen Eclipse Editor Not Getting Correct Encoding
by W. Eliot Kimber 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Suggestion on the Eclipse plug-in docs: it would be helpful to mention that you may need to explicitly set the encoding for XML documents that have a non-standard extension and that are being reported as ASCII rather than UTF-8 by Eclipse. It took me a while to figure this out (and I might never have if I didn't dimly remember being able to set the encoding in the package explorer). Cheers, Eliot -- W.

[bug][SVNClient] Encoding issue
by Timothy Reaves 04 Jan '07

04 Jan '07

When I double-click a file to do a compare (from one particular repository, not all), I get an error dialog: Operation failed: Got a character coding exception. To ignore these errors or to replace invalid characters please change in oXygen preferences the "Encoding errors handling" from REPORT to IGNORE or REPLACE. UTF8 - java.nio.charset.MalformedInputException [Input length = 1] First of all, I'm not real sure what the error means. The repository is for a muli-language application (LyX) and does support multiple character sets. Secondly, I have gone into oXygen and change that setting to IGNORE, and still get the error.
