Installing oxygen 19.1 on centOS7
by Wingerath, Markus 14 Jan '20

14 Jan '20

Dear list, I'm trying to install oxygen 19.1 on a VirtualMachine running centOS 7 with GNOME via X11 and OpenJDK 1.8.0. I'm running the install-script with su-privileges, but after drawing the first window (for the language selection), there are no buttons or text. The functionality is there - I can open the drop-down menu - but no text or buttons. I tried using the "unattended installation" as well as unpacking the tarball, both open a window but fail to draw it's contents. The flash screen also appears only as a grey rectangle. The VM sits behind a firewall which blocks ftp-protocols and cannot be altered, because we don't administer it - this has led to problems in the past, therefore it's worth mentioning. I tried Google, but came up empty handed. I'm hoping someone here ran into similar problems and has found a solution. Best wishes, M.

Why is the Syncro SVN Client deprecated?
by Tony Graham 09 Jan '20

09 Jan '20

See http://www.syncrosvnclient.com/. Why is the Syncro SVN Client being deprecated? I use Git for new projects, but I also work with existing projects that show no sign of moving off Subversion. I would be surprised if there are no other people in the same situation. Regards, Tony Graham. -- Senior Architect XML Division Antenna House, Inc. ---- Skerries, Ireland tgraham(a)antenna.co.jp

Git plug-in
by Kristen James Eberlein 09 Jan '20

09 Jan '20

I am evaluating the Git plug-in for oXygen XML Editor for a client that is having a hard time with SourceTree. For interested readers, see https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/21.1/ug-editor/topics/git-addon.html It installed easily and and I cloned a repository, but I cannot see a way to fetch branches from origin. The only branch I have access to is the one that I specified during the installation procedure. -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)

Request for changes in xquery indentation
by France Baril 06 Jan '20

06 Jan '20

Hi, At the last DITA Europe Conference, I discussed xquery indentation in Oxygen with Radu. As there are no universal rules, he proposed I send my suggestions. So here are some suggestions that would truly help me. If they don't get unanimous approval, I would suggest that some of them become configurable in preferences. I attached an xml file that is indented as I prefer (so please do open it without automatic indent). I included comments that indicate the proposed changes. When you apply indent you can experience the issues yourself. Thank you -- France Baril Architecte documentaire / Documentation architect france.baril(a)architextus.com

eXist-db in <oXygen/>?
by David Birnbaum 29 Dec '19

29 Dec '19

Dear oxygen-user list, I've constructed an XQuery script for eXist-db that uses the function request:get-parameter(). It works as expected in eXide. I have established a data source connection between <oXygen/> (XML Editor 21.1, build 2019120214, running on MacOS Mojave) and eXist-db (5.0.0) running on localhost, and I can open, edit, and save XQuery scripts from inside eXist-db within <oXygen/>, from which I conclude that the connection is live. Since <oXygen/> apparently cannot use the eXist-db data source connection for debugging, instead of using the <oXygen/> XQuery debugger perspective to run the script I configured a transformation scenario where I specify the localhost eXist-db connection as the Transformer. When I run this script, I get the following error message from <oXygen/>: err:XPDY0002 Variable $request is not bound to an Java object The function is used in a line that reads: declare variable $story_id as xs:string := request:get-parameter('story', 'x'); I thought at first that the error might be because the "request:" namespace prefix was not declared and bound (eXist-db declares it implicitly), so I added an explicit namespace declaration for it: declare namespace request="http://exist-db.org/xquery/request"; The error remains. The entire XQuery script is below; it retrieves information from a TEI document, based on a user-supplied resource name, if the document exists and returns an error message otherwise. Can someone please help me identify what I have apparently misunderstood about running XQuery scripts in an <oXygen/> transformation scenario using eXist-db as the XQuery transformer? Sincerely, David djbpitt(a)gmail.com __ xquery version "3.1"; declare default element namespace "http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0"; declare namespace request="http://exist-db.org/xquery/request"; declare variable $stories as document-node()+ := collection('/db/apps/neh_06_reading_tei/xml'); declare variable $story_id as xs:string := request:get-parameter('story', 'x'); declare variable $story_filename as xs:string: = concat($story_id, '.xml'); declare variable $story as document-node()? := $stories[ends-with(base-uri(), $story_filename)]; if ($story) then <TEI>{ $story//(titleStmt/title | text) }</TEI> else <error xmlns="">{concat('No such story:', $story_id)}</error>

Spell check: Forbidden words in a term list
by Kristen James Eberlein 13 Dec '19

13 Dec '19

Is there a way to suggest a replacement? For example, if I make "barcode" a forbidden word, can the Spell check message suggest "bar code"? -- Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 622-1501; kriseberlein (skype)
