XML Spec stylesheets: which version?
by Florent Georges 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

Hi, Looking at the stylesheet for XML Spec [1] in the frameworks shipped with oXygen, the comment at the top of the file shows: Version: $Id$ instead of the substituted CVS tag as in the delivered versions of the stylesheet, if I understand correctly http://www.w3.org/2002/xmlspec/. Where does the stylesheet come from? Which version is it? [1] ${frameworks}/xmlspec/xhtml/xmlspec.xsl Regards, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

Subversion Malformed Network Data error
by Daniel Paul O'Donnell 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Hi we're getting a malformed network data error. I looked at the earlier discussion of this, but the solution didn't really seem relevant... we aren't getting it from some clients and we are from others, and everything used to work. The problem client is on a MacBook. We're using Oxygen 9.2 and the Oxygen SVN client version 3.1. Our server is svn version 1.5.1. The .bashrc advice (i.e. make sure that .bashrc isn't producing text output on activity) doesn't seem relevant for two reasons: we are doing a straight svn: and we aren't going to a home directory or using a client that has a home directory on the server. Does anybody know what the issue might be? I saw that eclipse had some trouble with the same error with earlier versions of svn; but we're not using eclipse and the problem is not found on all clients.

where's Saxon?
by Syd Bauman 13 Jan '09

13 Jan '09

Sometimes I want to execute some XSLT (2.0) transformations from the (Mac OS X) command-line. In the past, I've just issued java -jar /Applications/oxygen/lib/saxon9.jar [buncha args here] but that no longer works, as the file saxon9.jar does not exist in the current release of oXygen. But what replaces it? I tried what seemed (to me) likely, saxon9sa.jar, but got the error message "Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute ..." Any thoughts?

Hi Eliot, Sorry for the misunderstanding. This will be available in the next Oxygen 10.1 release. I also tested your use case and in the browse tree you will see as current directory the directory of the selected topic.

[Map Manager] Add Currently Edit Topic--Find Dialog Behavior Confusing (V10)
by Eliot Kimber 12 Jan '09

12 Jan '09

In version 10, the "add currently edit topic" to the DITA map is very handy. However, I find the behavior of the dialog a little confusing in that the file system browse tree doesn't reflect the topic selected but whatever the last thing you used it for was. The first few times I used this I though the feature was broken because I didn't immediately realize that in fact the fields on the right reflected the topic I wanted to add. I think it would be clearer if the browse tree showed as selected the topic to be added.

Tab list when Ctrl-Tab (a la NetBeans or Safari)
by Florent Georges 12 Jan '09

12 Jan '09

Hi, Using Ctrl-Tab in oXygen, one can switch between the various open editor tabs. While keeping Ctrl pressed, N hits on Tab will show one after the other the next N tabs in the tab list order by last recently viewed. By comparison, NetBeans and Safari behave a little bit differently. They do not actually change the editor tab until Ctrl is released, but they display a list with all the tabs instead. See the following screenshot: http://www.fgeorges.org/tmp/netbeans-ctrl-tab-list.jpg I understand this is not good practice to change the interface of an application, but maybe this would be useful to add such a list in oXygen, even if the tabs continue to actually change each time Tab is pressed. I am used to have a huge amount of open tabs, and this list helps a lot to quickly figure out where is the tab I am looking for. This is very useful too when working with 4 or 5 files at the same time (for instance two XSLT modules, a schema module, a sample of input and a sample of output, and I don't even speak of XProc :-p.) Kind regards, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

How To Set Up Custom DITA OT Transforms Using Ant Tasks
by Eliot Kimber 09 Jan '09

09 Jan '09

I've worked out how to configure the built-in DITA-specific transforms and successfully integrated my local Toolkit plugins. That all works great. What I want to do now is replicate what I currently have in a script, which runs the XHTML process and then runs the TOCJS process to generate a HTML package that includes the TOCJS dynamic TOC. I think the best way to do this (or at least the cleanest from a reusability standpoint) is to set up an Ant script that does what the script does (there's also file copying and stuff that has to happen as well). I looked through the Oxygen user guide on line and didn't see anything specifically about setting up DITA-specific processes but I see from looking at my saved DITA scenarios that there is DITA-specific stuff in the scenario definition itself. Is there documentation on how to do what I want to do or is it something someone can outline for me quickly?

Re: [oXygen-user] Unset a transform parameter in a scenario

After having restarted oXygen, the button was correctly enabled. I am not sure why (but that doesn't hurt...) Thanks for the help, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

Unset a transform parameter in a scenario
by Florent Georges 08 Jan '09

08 Jan '09

Hi, In a transform scenario, it does not seem to be possible to unset a parameter once it has been set. If I change its value and delete all the content, it will still be set, to the empty string. This is unconvenient; for instance if the parameter has a default value, there no way to revert to this default value but to exit oXygen, open the project file by hand, locate the right scenario, delete the parameter from the file and start oXygen again. Did I miss something? Regards, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

feature request: RESTful GET, POST, PUT, DELETE
by Robert Koberg 08 Jan '09

08 Jan '09

Hi, What do you think the chances of getting REST working in oXygen? I see it working similar to the webdav file open/save, but specifying GET, PUT, DELETE (and maybe POST) as the HTTP method. (of course the server would need to support it) As a user: - I would like to 'open' a file from a URI with a GET - I would like to 'save' a a file to URI with a PUT - I would like to 'delete' a file from a URI with a DELETE Is this possible now? best, -Rob
