Re: xml catalog relative path resolution

Hi, thanks for the clarification. I read your message as saying that oXygen complies with the specification. However, as I see it this leaves an important question open: in the absence of an explicitly defined base URL, what is taken to be the base? The location of the XML catalogue or the current working directory? oXygen seems to use the latter whereas other tools seem to use the former. (e.g., Ant, see http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTypes/xmlcatalog.html although this page does not say anything about the xml:base attribute???) If the specification does not define what base URI is used in the absence of an xml:base attribute then it is incomplete. I should either define a sensible default (such as the XML catalogue location) or declare this illegal (i.e. you must not have a relative URI if you don't specify a base URI). IMHO the former would be much more useful. I hope I haven't missed anything. If I am right about this is it not time to change the spec?

xml catalog relative path resolution
by Alexander Voss 09 Aug '06

09 Aug '06

Hi, can anybody say what the resolution algorithm is for resolving relative paths given in XML catalogues? Or point me to a place that explains this? All the examples I have found use absolute paths but I want to be able to check the XML catalogue into a repository which also contains the DTD files, so people can check out the whole thing and only need to register the XML catalogue in their local preferences.

Transformation scenario error message?
by Timothy Reaves 01 Aug '06

01 Aug '06

I have a Transformation Scenario that fails. This scenario uses a customization layer, and a FOP configuration file for embedding fonts. I've checked and double checked all my paths, and they are accurate: the FOP configuration file (I used the browser to select the file), the font metrics and TTF locations, etc. The only error I get when it fails is below: Description: The process 'FOP' ended with code : 2 The error was : [ERROR] null Is there any way to get more output? Thanks.

Is it possble to bookmark a directory in oxygen. On linux directory navigation is painful (I assume this depends on java) so being able to book mark directories would be very helpful. Dave.

7.2 on MacBook Pro
by Steve Lay 25 Jul '06

25 Jul '06

I downloaded 7.2 onto my new intel-based MacBook Pro but when launching the application it quits before anything appears on the screen. The console says the following: [JavaAppLauncher] application launched with ppc-thin application stub. Using native application stub instead. [LaunchRunner Error] The main class "ro.sync.exml.Oxygen" could not be found. [JavaAppLauncher Error] CallStaticVoidMethod() threw an exception Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at apple.launcher.LaunchRunner.run(LaunchRunner.java:85) at apple.launcher.LaunchRunner.callMain(LaunchRunner.java:50) at apple.launcher.JavaApplicationLauncher.launch(JavaApplicationLauncher.java:52) Any ideas? - I rather like the idea of getting to grips with the new SVN functionality. Fortunately 7.1 still seems to work OK. Steve

Hi guys, What if I have an xml file declared as this: <!DOCTYPE Requests PUBLIC "-//iPlanet//Sun ONE Identity Server 6.1 Admin CLI DTD//EN" "jar://com/iplanet/am/admin/cli/amAdmin.dtd" > I know which jar file the dtd is stored in. How do I configure Oxygen to find it there. Thanks a lot! Serge

calling templates in imported files (XSLT)
by Shawn McKenzie 17 Jul '06

17 Jul '06

It is not a big deal, but when I call a template that is in an imported xsl file, Oxygen complains that the template does not exist. Is there a way to shut that warning off, or have it resolve templates in open files, project files or have it trace the imports for a multiple file transform?

using oXygen features in ant?
by Alexander Voss 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to use features of oXygen such as the schema documentation function in an ant task in a similar way as xnsdoc?

Hi, I am new to XSLT and have a question on how to dynamically generate columns in XSL style sheet that can be applied generic xml files that has the same document structure but with different number of columns and column names. The XML file is shown below. In this case, the number of columns is 3 and column names are the elements' name (e.g., COUNTRY_ID, COUNTRY_NAME and REGION_ID. Thanks in advance for your assistance. -Jamie <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="http://rome:18080/countries.xsl"?> <result> <row> <COUNTRY_ID>AR</COUNTRY_ID> <COUNTRY_NAME>Argentina</COUNTRY_NAME> <REGION_ID>2.0</REGION_ID> </row> <row> <COUNTRY_ID>AU</COUNTRY_ID> <COUNTRY_NAME>Australia</COUNTRY_NAME> <REGION_ID>3.0</REGION_ID> </row> result>
