Using xs:unique
by Olumide 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

I'd appreciate help figuring out why the schema below validates the following xml file even though it the id='3' is not unique. Regards, - Olumide --------------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified"> <xs:element name="Item"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded"> <xs:choice> <xs:element name="a"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="id" use="required"/> </xs:complexType> <xs:unique name="uniqueId-a"> <xs:selector xpath="*"/> <xs:field xpath="@id"/> </xs:unique> </xs:element> <xs:element name="b"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="id" use="required"/> </xs:complexType> <xs:unique name="uniqueId-b"> <xs:selector xpath="*"/> <xs:field xpath="@id"/> </xs:unique> </xs:element> </xs:choice> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:schema> ---------------------------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Item> <a id="3"/>  <a id="2"/> <b id="3"/>  <a id="4"/> <b id="0"/> <b id="3"/>  </Item>

Insert <image> workflow
by KAATMAN Matthew 29 Nov '12

29 Nov '12

Hello Everyone, This is probably something that is obvious, but there are two workflows for inserting an <image> tag: 1. DITA->Insert->Image - This pops up a URI box to select the image and then adds the tag with the href to the document. 2. From the elements list, select image - This adds the tag to the document. Is there a way to access the URI selection box if you use the 2nd workflow? I guess I'd like to either double click on the image tag to bring it up (currently does nothing). Alternatively/Additionally, when I select href in the attributes list I'd like it to pop up the URI selection. Am I missing an obvious way to do this? If not, is there any way I can configure this behavior? Thanks!

Automatically generating XML schemas using XSLT
by Olumide 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hello, Following this tutorial (http://www.liquid-technologies.com/Tutorials/XmlSchemas/XsdTutorial_04.aspx -- don't worry, I use Oxygen ;-) ) I've refactored my 733 line schema into 16 separate files or sub-schemas, each with its own namespace. Now the top level schema is just 77 lines. The plan is to use these sub-schema's to build other top-level schemas. The problem is that most top level schema's are quite similar and only differ in a few low level details. For example while one top level schema supports all PaymentMethodType's (see tutorial) another top-level schema may support only VISA and MasterCard. Currently my method of creating top-level schemas involves considerable duplication. For example, my current method of creating a top-level schema in which only VISA and MasterCard are supported would involve duplicating Main.xsd and OrderType.xsd, but customizing CommonTypes.xsd and reuse CustomerTypes.xsd. (As my actual schema is a lot longer a lot more duplication is involved.) I find this duplication unacceptable primarily because it introduces a maintenance challenge i.e. I would have to maintain any number of identical sub-schemas with different names. What I would like to know is if there is a method of automatically generating a schema without via a config file of some sort (XSLT perhaps?), in order to avoid duplicating sub-schemas. Also, is it good practice for all the sub-schemas to declare the same target namespace in this case (just like the xml schema namespace xs, but have custom sub-schemas declare a separate namespace? - Olumide

George's Meetup Talk on Debugging Toolkit Transforms
by Eliot Kimber 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

At the Oxygen User Meetup George presented how to debug Toolkit transforms using the Oxygen debugger. Apparently I wasn't paying close attention because now I can't remember how to do it. Is George's presentation available somewhere or is the process documented somewhere?

How to Resolve references to Toolkit-provided Java Functions?
by Eliot Kimber 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

In my project for working on custom Toolkit plugins, I have all my master transforms defined as master files and everything validates nicely except that I still get messages on the dost.jar-provided Java functions getWidth() and getHeight(): Engine name: Saxon-PE 9.4.0.4 Severity: fatal Description: Cannot find a matching 2-argument function named {org.dita.dost.util.ImgUtils}getWidth() What else do I need to do to remove these validation errors?

xs:keyref not working in 14.1
by Jirka Kosek 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

Hi, I have just noticed that in the recent version of oXygen 14.1 xs:keyref is not working. See attached files. Probably this is Xerces bug and you have just upgraded Xerces version between releases.

XSLT disable validation on Saxon EE not working
by Tara Athan 19 Nov '12

19 Nov '12

I have an xml file with an association to a Relax NG schema. Whenever I apply an XSLT transformation to it, it seems to validate the file against the schema before it carries out the transformation. The reason I suspect this is I am using a remote schema so it takes a long time to carry out the transformation compared to when I remove the schema association. I even have schema caching turned on, but that also seems to be malfunctioning, as the time necessary to validate does not decrease upon repitition. Thanks, Tara

XSLT disable validation on Saxon EE not working
by Tara Athan 19 Nov '12

I forgot to say - I am using version 14.1 and using the Saxon EE option for transformation. I have an xml file with an association to a Relax NG schema. Whenever I apply an XSLT transformation to it, it seems to validate the file against the schema before it carries out the transformation. The reason I suspect this is I am using a remote schema so it takes a long time to carry out the transformation compared to when I remove the schema association.
