3.0.1 Alpha Bundles
by Sean Wheller 30 Oct '03

30 Oct '03

I notice that 3.0.1 alpha bundles DB XSL 1.60.1 when the current version is 1.62.4. Will this remain so or will 1.60.1 be replace with the new version? I think the DTD is also a bit behind.

3.0.1 Alpha FOP Transform for Large files fails
by Sean Wheller 29 Oct '03

29 Oct '03

Hi, SuSE 8.2, JRE,SE 1.4.2-b28, Oxygen 3.0.1 Alpha FOP transformations on large files still fail. The FOP message notes java out of memory error. I have set internal FOP memory to 400. Does the machine mem spec make any difference? Obviously the mor RAM and the better the processor the faster the FOP transform, but should I be able to FOP a large file if I only have 256 MB RAM. > free in bash shows total = 251852 used 220552 free 31300 this is following reboot with KDE running, bash shell open and Oxygen. If I break the large XML document into smaller (modular) files will this improve memory management? Sean Wheller __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Re: [oXygen-user] Corrupt PDF Output

Hi Sean, We are preparing an alpha kit with the new features like: 1. Possibility of inspecting the FOP output. 2. Possibility to set the memory available to FOP. The file you sent to me generated a 11MB FO output. The FOP failed to transform this file to PDF due to insufficient memory. We tried with 430MB and it succeeded. I'll notify you when the kit is available. Cheers, Dan Sean Wheller wrote: >Great hope it helps. > >I don't get OOME. Running on SuSE 8.2 with j2re1.4.2 > >Let me know soon as you have a fix.

In Oxygen you can learn the structure of an XML Document and save to a DTD. If you then want to convert the DTD to an XSD, the trang plugin, bundled with Oxygen, can then be used to convert to XSD or Relax NG. The general procedure would be as follows: 1. Open you XML document. 2. Learn the structure by clicking the "learn structure" button located on the editor toolbar. 3. Save to a DTD by clicking the "save structure" button. You now have a DTD. 4. To convert it. From the main menu select Plugins > Trang Wrapper. 5. Set the input and output, the click Convert. The DTD will be transformed to the selected output. I hope this helps. I have also posted your question to oxygen-users. Sean Wheller __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Shopping - with improved product search http://shopping.yahoo.com

I tried the transformation, but the file is too long to be handled in a reasonable memory space. I get OutOfMemoryError. We'll need to make some optimisations in the editor.

Corrupt PDF Output
by Sean Wheller 20 Oct '03

20 Oct '03

Hello, when I transform a Docbook XML document to PDF I cannot open it as it seems to be corrupt. The document is well-formed and valid. Transformations using (saxon and xalan) > apache fop both output a PDF file, but both are corrupt. Any ideas how I may id what is going wrong. The only things special about the document are: it uses background textobjects <programlisting> <textobject> <textdata fileref="path/to/file.asp"/> </textobject> </programlisting> it uses inside programlisting <![CDATA[ Some xml representation. ]]> The document is 115262 lines.

RFE: XSL Parameter External File and Export
by Sean Wheller 20 Oct '03

20 Oct '03

Hi, Thought it may be useful to add the ability to store xsl parameters in an external file and to be able to export an existing parameter list to a file. This will enable the same parameter file to be used across documents in an easy manner. It will also make management of xsl parameters easier. Taking this one step further. It would be nice if the exported file is a customization layer. Sean Wheller __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!

component versions
by Marius Scurtescu 16 Oct '03

16 Oct '03

Hi, Quite often I am wondering what version is a certain component that comes with oXygen. By component I mean DocBook stylesheets, Xalan, Saxon or FOP. Is there a place where all this is documented? I am using oXygen 2.0.4 and I would like to know what version of Xalan is used. Thanks, Marius http://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=206 Marius Scurtescu Tel: 604-222-3900x937 Fax: 604-222-3901 http://www.digitalpt.com

Bug: XInclude
by Sean Wheller 14 Oct '03

14 Oct '03

Hi, I'm testing version of oxy that has support for XInclude. The following problem is found. After inserting xi:include elements to document, code-insight no longer displays element list correctly. When all xi:include elements are commented. Code-insight returns to normal functionality. Example: In a chapter document insert an xi:include for a sect1. Now try to use code-insight to insert a new sect1 inside the chapter. sect1 is not available from code-insight. Comment the xi:include, now sect1 is available from code-insight.

Bookmarks
by Sean Wheller 14 Oct '03

14 Oct '03

Hi, I just wanted to say that the bookmark idea is great. It certainly improves productivity as I am able to rapidly jump between multiple points in my documents (especially my long docs > 200 000 lines), with a stroke of the keyboard. Another feature, I think this may already have been suggested, is the ability to select an element and any child/data it may contain. So the use case would be: if I have a sect2 that is long, say three screens, I would like to place the cursor into the opening or closing sect2 element, right-click > select element. This will cause the editor to select <sect2> ... any content ... </sect2>. We already have an option to Escape Selection. If Oxygen had an XML Browser feature like that of XMLShell or MSIE this would also be great for productivity and usability. Another feature. It would be very useful to have an insight menu that displays the values of all id attributes (XPath representation would be //*/@id). The use case for this is great for Docbook xlink elements like xref, where the xref linkend attribute is the value an element id attribute. Naturally the id should be within the current document so that parsing can be done to obtain the value of all id's. Although, an enhanced version should enable a user to select the document to be parsed for id values. This would reduce the need to open a document in order to identify the exact string value of an id. Another feature, also I think previously mentioned. Is a Tree View. Not the Tree Editor, but a Tree View that enables navigation and selection of document parts. This view should also be insync with the cursor position in the editor. Next. This change would be very intrusive. Would it be possible to break the interface into an open plan? Rather than having a single window bordering all parts, separate the parts into dock-able pieces. 1. Main Menu and Toolbar 2. Project View 3. Editor ( a separate window per document ) Editor Toolbar and Message panel can remain on each Editor Window. The idea behind the open plan interface is to enable better optimization of the screen real-estate, greater flexibility in real-estate layout. Just some thoughts. w b interested in hearing view of developers and other users on these ideas. Cheers. Sean Wheller __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
