XML Data Transfer
by Robert C. Leif 25 Mar '14

25 Mar '14

Radu Coravu et al Does oXygen include or is there available a utility to move data from an element in one XML page to a second identical element in another XML page? The two elements not being required to be at the same location in their respective XML pages or to contain the same data. Could this be done in one step for all such elements in a pair of XML pages? I test my XSD1.1 schema designs by generating XML pages and subsequently manually filling them. If one goes through many iterations, this becomes painful, tedious and expensive. Thank you.

AuthorMode, open selected word in default app (browser)
by Andreas Wagner 24 Mar '14

24 Mar '14

Dear list, I am working on an author mode/document type framework and I would like to allow my users to select a word and open a browser with the selected word at some place in the url. (like e.g. http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/morph?l=MYFUNNYWORD&la=la) Can I achieve this with the ro.sync.ecss.extensions.commons.operations.OpenInSystemAppOperation operation, and if so, what should its parameters be? (Ideally, a somewhat similar command could open a default link for the current document, the ID of which it would read from some XPath. E.g. google for the title and author of the current document.)

Problem with Saxon's EXPath/file:exists on Mac
by Stefan Krause 23 Mar '14

23 Mar '14

Hi all, I have the following stylesheet: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:file="http://expath.org/ns/file" version="2.0" exclude-result-prefixes="#all"> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:variable name="file" as="xs:string" select="string(document-uri(/))"/> <test> <xsl:value-of select="$file"/>: <xsl:value-of select="file:exists($file)"/>/<xsl:value-of select="doc-available($file)"/> </test> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I run it from OxygenXML with the stylesheet itself as the input document. I expected the result is <test>file:/Users/Stf/Documents/trash/file-exists.xsl: true/true</test> but actually it is <test>file:/Users/Stf/Documents/trash/file-exists.xsl: false/true</test> Since I get the expected result from Oxygen on Windows, I think there is something wrong with the Mac implementation. I use XML Editor 15.2, build 2014022718 on Mac OS X 10.9.2 (13C64) with java.version=1.6.0_65. The transformation scenario uses Saxon-PE, and Saxon’s »-ext«-option is checked. There are no errors during the transformation. Any hints to get the right result? Thank you, Stefan

Signed executables in Oxygen
by Nathan 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hi, It would be great if all the executables in Oxygen (especially in the All platform and Windows versions) were signed for security purposes. We are having a bit of an issue whitelisting the various executables individually because we are unable to find any signage on some of the executables - like "huntspell.dll", "dotNetValidator.exe" etc. Regards, Nathan

Right, but it is still not theirs. It is third-party software (at least hunspell). Note that I'm not familiar on the proper mechanics of signing software, just raising a point that this seems dodgy.

Lobbying for a new feature to save on indentation
by G. Ken Holman 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

Fellow oXygen users, I've just learned that a request for a new feature I made long ago is getting stale because not enough people have expressed an interest in having it added to the software. Perhaps this is because people haven't considered how helpful it might be, so I thought I would lobby here that if you like the idea of this feature you might vote for it as well. In all my SGML and XML editing it has been my preference to keep children of the document element un-indented and flush left, starting the indentation only with the grandchildren of the document element. I see no utility in indenting the children of the document element since it is unambiguous if an element at the left edge is a document element or not: if there is element or text content before the start tag or after the end tag, then the element must not be the document element. It may not sound like saving one indent is a lot, but consider the file size since that one indent is saved on *every* line. Also, it saves one indent for those of our files (in particular the XSL-FO files I review by eye to debug) are indented way over to the wrap position. The software currently indents children of the document element using the preference for indent width ... I suggest a new preference checkbox (by default set one way or the other to preserve existing behaviour), where the user can indicate the preference such that indentation starts with descendants of children of the document element, thus putting those children of the document element at column 1 of the line. I'll let the software designers decide what wording to use and whether the box is checked or not as the default to preserve existing behaviour. Please send your interest to <support(a)oxygenxml.com> rather than to this mail list, so that it gets properly recorded and doesn't clog up threads here. Thanks for listening! . . . . . . . . .

Do format-and-indent for a set of files?
by Eliot Kimber 13 Mar '14

13 Mar '14

So for my DITA RNG @domains update process I have: 1. Apply my XQuery to do the update of each doc 2. Do a global search and replace of "
" to "\n" 3. For each document, apply format-and-indent to make everything neat. 1 and 2 I can quickly do from the project view against all the RNG files by setting up a logical folder to hold the files. But there doesn't appear to be a way to do 3 against files in the project view. Is this possible? Thanks, Eliot ————— Eliot Kimber, Owner Contrext, LLC http://contrext.com

SurroundWithFragmentOperation duplicates selected string
by Andreas Wagner 13 Mar '14

13 Mar '14

Hi list, In my oXygen Author mode framework, I want to offer an action to replace an abbreviation with its expanded form. To give a concrete example of one of our (TEI) files. Suppose I have a word like "accusatu." I select it, trigger my action, get asked what it should be replaced with and get (in code) this: <choice><abbr>accusa.</abbr><expan>accusatus</expan></choice> The thing is, when the selected string contains a character entity, say, "Jtẽ", then the surrounding works okay, but the selected phrase is *repeated after* the inserted fragment, so that I get <choice><abbr>Jtẽ</abbr><expan>Item</expan></choice>Jtẽ This sometimes happens and sometimes it does not. With <choice><abbr>intẽtiõis</abbr><expan>intentionis</expan></choice> it has just worked fine. Note that for directly entered chars like nõ -> non, I have never noticed this problem, only when I am using numeric character references. Then again, it's not clear to me which cases are problematic and if they are so always or not. (I think with the Item from the example above it happens always.) But I don't know what distinguishes this case from the second example. (Also, from time to time I get errors because "The current context is read-only", which also seems to relate to the NCR entities involved and to how (far) I draw my selection.) The xml fragment that the SurroundWithFragmentOperation is using is this: <choice xmlns="http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0"><abbr></abbr><expan>${ask('Wie lautet die Expansion?', generic)}</expan></choice> Has anyone experienced similar things or can help in some way?

Possible to use XQuery Update to Update attribute values and get literal newlines?
by Eliot Kimber 13 Mar '14

13 Mar '14

I'm pretty sure the answer is "no", but I'm wondering if there's any way to use XQuery update via Saxon to update an attribute value such that the resulting value has literal newline characters in it. In the context of the DITA 1.3 RNG stuff, I've written a little XQuery transform that updates the default value of the @domains attribute as declared in a document type shell's grammar doc. The value of the a:defaultValue attribute as I've coded it is formatted like so: <attribute name="domains" a:defaultValue=" (topic topic) (topic hazard-d) (topic hi-d) (topic indexing-d) (topic ut-d) (topic hazard-d) a(props deliveryTarget) "/> Which is consistent with the general DITA coding practice of putting each thing on its own line for each of updating and so on. However, the XQuery update will not emit literal newlines using any method I've tried. This is consistent with the fact that newlines in XML attributes are treated as space characters when the XML is parsed. That is, if I do: let $domains := string-join(local:getDomainsContributions($e), '
') Then what I get in the updated document is: a:defaultValue="(topic abbrev-d) 
(topic equation-d) 
(topic hazard-d) 
(topic hi-d) 
(topic indexing-d) 
(topic mathml-d) 
(topic pr-d) 
(topic relmgmt-d)" Which is technically correct per the XML spec but not what I wanted. Is there any solution here other than simply doing a global search and replace on 
 (which is OK but not as automatic as I had hoped I could do). Thanks, Eliot ————— Eliot Kimber, Owner Contrext, LLC http://contrext.com

Cannot get the excluded topics/text to grey out when profiling attributes are applied
by Nathan 07 Mar '14

07 Mar '14

Hi, I am using the DITA framework in Oxygen Author 15.2 on Mac OS and am unable to get the excluded topics greyed out when profiling attributes have been applied. The profiling attributes are being distributed as part of a custom config file. They are being declared in ditaval files which are bundled along with the framework folder. The framework folder is being distributed via source control. I am able to apply see the attributes and apply them on the concerned dita topics and text, but when I select the "Show Profiling attributes" icon on the DITA Maps manager, the excluded topics and text are not being grayed. Also, when I open the "Open Map in editor with resolved topics" icon in the Dita Maps manager window, the excluded topic is still shown as part of the content. I only notice this issue on the Mac, not on Windows or Linux. Is this a known bug in Oxygen 15.2? Could someone help me figure out whats happening here? Thanks a bunch, Nathan

Long opening time for Oxygen 15 (resent as new mail to create own thread)
by DaMommio, Aaron D (Aaron) 04 Mar '14

04 Mar '14

Resending this, last copy was done as a reply and got threaded wrong. ---- Anyone else seeing long opening times? I've got a user who says: === I noticed recently that Oxygen 15 takes more and more time to open and display the Welcome screen and/or the usual framework. That can last for over 2-3 minutes. Then, it also happens that some standard xml files take very long to open and display - from time to time I simply have to stop the application and reload it. Is there some sort of cache cleaning operation that I should apply to solve this? Found nothing about that in the WG. Finally, Oxygen reports no error about these hanging situation. === He's using Win7. I'm using WinXP, I also thought Oxy 15 was taking a long time to open, but when I timed it on my machine, it's only taking 1 minute, and then if I close it and reopen it, it only takes 20 seconds, so I assume it's benefiting from caching of recently loaded items.

external tool to run a bash script

I'm sure I'm doing something stupid, but ... I have a bash script (I'm on Mac OS X 10.8.5) that calls Jing with the simplify option to turn a modular Relax NG compact schema into a simplified monolithic RNG for further processing. It runs just fine from the command line, but I have been trying to implement it as an external tool. The command I use for the external tool is source /Users/taraathan/SimpleApps/oxygen/simplify-rnc2rng.sh ${cf} ${cfd}/tmp/simp-${cfne}.rng with working directory /Users/taraathan I get the error message Could not start: Cannot run program "source" (in directory "/Users/taraathan"): error=2, No such file or directory Process ended with exit code: -1234567 Any suggestions?

I know that 15.2 supports MarkLogic 7, but I'm having a hard time getting the connection to work.

Mis-indenting documentation in XProc

Hi, If I get the simple XProc library below, put the carret in the "p" element, and press "Cmd-Shift-I", I get the same indentation. See the first line? It is cut way too early.

No Easy Way to Set @colsep and @rowsep on Table in Author Mode
by Eliot Kimber 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

I'm trying to track down a rendering bug in complex tables and thus doing more table editing than I normally do. Just realized I can set @colsep and @rowsep on <table> to turn all the rules on in the table but there doesn't appear to be an easy way to do this from the table editor in Author mode. I would expect check boxes on the initial table creation dialog for "all column rules" and "all row rules" or something similar. Have I missed something in the UI or is there a considered reason for not providing this option?
