Replace Java help with Windows help
by Sorin Ristache 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

Dear list members, For the Windows install kit of oXygen we consider replacing the Java help bundle which is opened by pressing the F1 key or by going to menu Help -> Help with a native Windows bundle (a CHM file) with the same content. Of course the F1 key will continue to open the bundle at a specific help page. We would like to remove the Java help jar file from the Windows installation and replace it with the CHM file instead of including both the jar file and the CHM file. This avoids increasing the size of the Windows install kit. Without the Java help jar file the Dynamic Help View does not work any more as it loads the help pages that it must display from this jar file. Do you think that removing the Dynamic Help View from oXygen on Windows is an acceptable price for replacing the Java help dialog with a native Windows help package? Regards, Sorin http://www.oxygenxml.com

Re: Oxygen hanging at startup - Requested files
by Sorin Ristache 23 Feb '07

Hello, Thank you for the files. There is no problem with the content of the com.oxygenxml folder. The delay occurs when oXygen creates the file chooser dialog component of Java Swing and when oXygen sets the current directory in this component to D:\Documents and Settings\buschp\My Documents. Did you retarget your My Documents folder to a network drive? Are other network drives mapped to your file system but there is no connection to these drives? Does oXygen start up normally if you add the parameter -Duser.home=C:\temp\folder to the java command line in oxygen.bat and start oXygen again with the oxygen.bat script?

Oxygen hanging at startup
by Busch Paul 23 Feb '07

23 Feb '07

Hi all, I had a working installation of Oxygen 8.0 with JVM 1.5.9 on Windows XP. When I decided to upgrade to Oxygen 8.1 I also wanted to upgrade my JVM to version 6. I uninstalled Oxygen, JDK and JRE. Afterwards I installed JDK 6 (which includes JRE 6) and Oxygen 8.1. Since this installation I have not been able to start any of the Oxygen applications. The splash screen appears, says "loading application" and hangs at 2%. Processor usage goes up to 100% and I have to kill the process. I read in the forums that changing the JVM might help. Well, I have tried every combination of Oxygen versions 8.0 and 8.1 with JVM version 1.5.9, 1.5.11 and 6 now but the problem persists. Even the combination of Oxygen 8.0 and JVM 1.5.9 that worked before fails. What am I missing? Best regards Paul

Directory comparison
by Owen Rees 16 Feb '07

16 Feb '07

I am using 'compare directories' and have set the preference to "Compare files by: content". I have set the file comparison algorith to "XML Accurate" but this seems to apply only to the file comparison itself and not to whether or not the files are listed as different in the directory comparison window. Is there a way to apply the selected file comparison algorithm to determine if the files show as different in the compare directories window? I know it will take some time if you choose one of the more expensive algorithms and there are a lot of files but I would find this very useful. -- Owen Rees Hewlett Packard Laboratories, Bristol, UK

Q: XML/XSL URLs and cross-platform transformation scenarios
by Paul Everitt 08 Feb '07

08 Feb '07

I'm on a project where I manage a .xpr project file for a group of people on a team, putting in SVN to distribute changes. Everything is working well except for one small detail. I configure the transformation scenario using something like this as the Output -> Save As URL: ${pdu}/tmp/xxxoutput.html I'm on OS X and that works fine, but the forward slash doesn't work so well on Windows. Those folks then "fix" it, using a backslash, and then it breaks for me. Is there any chance that oXygen can normalize the slash in the URL? --Paul

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
