Customizing footers in output PDF
by Ethan Metsger 06 Feb '09

06 Feb '09

Hi, all. I confess that I'm something of an XSLT newbie. I'm working on customizing the output footers for our PDF documentation, and I'm having a difficult time of selecting the appropriate elements using XSLT. I'm trying to use the pagesetup.xsl stylesheet as a template, and I've been doing some work trying to construct the appropriate <xsl:value-of> selection. It has been somewhat difficult to use what should be a very simple selection: <xsl:value-of select="book/info/productname"/> The problem is that "book" no longer lives in the default namespace, but (it seems) in the "d" namespace: <xsl:stylesheet exclude-result-prefixes="d" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:d="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" I've tried removing the "exclude-result-prefixes" item and trying several variations on the above value-of query: <xsl:value-of select="d:book/info/productname"/> <xsl:value-of select="d:/book/info/productname"/> <xsl:value-of select="d:book/d:info/d:productname"/> <xsl:value-of select="d:productname"/> And the like. I know that the rule is being triggered because I'm getting textual output in the resulting PDF. But so far I'm mystified about how to go about modifying the header with the product name and version. I am nearly certain the issue is namespace related, because I'm able to get xsltproc to transform the xml file using pretty trivial xsl. I've attached both. I ran: xsltproc test.xsl 00_XBinder_Master.xml I'm using Saxon with Oxygen for the transformation. Best, Ethan Metsger -- Objective Systems, Inc.

switch off: auto self-standing tag function
by Takako Kato 03 Feb '09

03 Feb '09

Dear list, In my xsl, in my header, I have a link to java script file, which cannot be a self-standing tag: <SCRIPT language="Javascript1.2" src="../java/menu_desc.js" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT> Every time I transform a xml file, however, the Oxygen automatically change the above link into: <SCRIPT language="Javascript1.2" src="../java/menu_desc.js" type="text/javascript"/>. I want to switch off this function, i.e, the function, which change the empty tags into self-standing tag automatically. Could anybody teach me how to do this, please/ Thanks very much.

What is better: bold the names or bold the values?
by George Cristian Bina 30 Jan '09

30 Jan '09

Hi, We need your feedback on one of the oXygen 10.1 features. We implemented a new XML Schema editor where XML Schemas can be edited visually. The properties of the selected component are available in a side view (Attributes view). Now, some attributes are specified by the user, some other have default values. For marking the specified ones we though of two possibilities: - bold the attribute names as you can see in http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/boldNames.jpg or - bold the values, as you can see in http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/boldValues.jpg Do you have a preference for any of these?

How to switch off automatic generation of attributes in XSL [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
by John.Hockaday＠ga.gov.au 21 Jan '09

21 Jan '09

Hi, My friend and colleague sent me some XSL which he asked me to validate the output XML. The output includes namespaces for the XSDs but also some of the namespaces that he used for functions that generated some of the element content. For example, xmlns:util="java:java.util.UUID" to generate a UUID for the gmd:fileIdentifier element. If he removes these namespaces from the XSL of course the transformation fails. If he includes them the transformation is successful but I don't see how to get rid of the namespaces and attributes for the unwanted namespaces in the output XML. For example I don't want the xmlns:dif, xmlns:fn, xmlns:util namespaces as attributes in the root element and I also don't want the xmls:srv attribute in the elements. How do I get rid of this content? Thanks. John Here is the head of the XSL: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:gco="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco" xmlns:gmd="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd" xmlns:gts="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gts" xmlns:gsr="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gsr" xmlns:gss="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gss" xmlns:gmx="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmx" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:util="java:java.util.UUID" xmlns:dif="http://gcmd.gsfc.nasa.gov/Aboutus/xml/dif/" xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd/gmd.xsd http://www.opengis.net/gml http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gml/gml.xsd http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink http://www.isotc211.org/2005/xlink/xlinks.xsd"> <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" indent="yes" media-type="text/plain"/>   <xsl:template match="dif:DIF">  <gmd:MD_Metadata xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:gmd="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd" xmlns:gco="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco" xmlns:gts="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gts" xmlns:gsr="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gsr" xmlns:gss="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gss" xmlns:gmx="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmx" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd/gmd.xsd http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gco/gco.xsd http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gts http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gts/gts.xsd http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gsr http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gsr/gsr.xsd http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gss http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gss/gss.xsd"> <gmd:fileIdentifier> <gco:CharacterString> <xsl:variable name="uid" select="util:toString(util:randomUUID())"/> <xsl:value-of select="$uid"/> </gco:CharacterString> </gmd:fileIdentifier> ...

Preprocessing Xquery
by Paul Ryan 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Our group has run into a limitation with xquery that has pushed us to create a preprocessor for xquery and the one downfall to this approach is that our tools (eclipse with oxygen) now don't support the xqueries as-is. We were wondering if there is a recommended way for creating a plugin (java) for oxygen that can preprocess the xquery prior to passing it off to the debugger or xquery instance (such as eXist).

XML Spec framework catalog
by Florent Georges 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Hi, In the catalog for the XML Spec framework, one can read the following rule (that's actually the only rule): <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/06/" rewritePrefix="./"/> While in the DTD (it seems all other schemas have been generated from the DTD,) there is the following statement: TYPICAL INVOCATION: # <!DOCTYPE spec PUBLIC # "-//W3C//DTD Specification V2.10//EN" # "http://www.w3.org/2002/xmlspec/dtd/2.10/xmlspec.dtd"> So I wonder if the URIs are actually in sync. Shouldn't the catalog contain instead the following rule: <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://www.w3.org/2002/xmlspec/dtd/2.10/" rewritePrefix="./"/> Besides this point, if I am right, rewriteSystem is not suitable for stylesheet URI resolution. So shouldn't we have to add the corresponding rewriteURI rule too? (whatever the URI actually is) Regards, -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

"<?oxygen RNGSchema" URI on different systems
by Florent Georges 19 Jan '09

19 Jan '09

Hi, I am editing an XML file using the XML Spec document type. So it contains the following PI to associate the RNC schema: <?oxygen RNGSchema="file:/.../frameworks/xmlspec/schema/xmlspec.rnc" type="compact"?> The problem is that I edit it on different systems, and the part shown as "..." does vary between them. Is there any way to make references to editor variables for instance in such URIs? Something like: <?oxygen RNGSchema="${frameworks}/xmlspec/schema/xmlspec.rnc" type="compact"?> I also looked where to configure a URI resolver for oNVDL (because from the error message it seems that it is oNVDL that is used to validate this document) but I didn't find. Is there any particular place I could find interesting in that context (manual section, preferences, config file, webpage?) Thanks, -- 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?

[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?

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

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

Cannot locate a schema for namespace ...
by Bradley, Peter 08 Jan '09

08 Jan '09

Hi, I have a project to implement RFC4930 (EPP). The RFC provides two schemas that define the XML formats for the messages passed in the emplementation: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc4930.html The schemas are in section 4 (Formal Syntax), paras 1 and 2. I've created an oXygen project for this, and added two files: one for the "Base Schema", and one for the "Shared Structure" schema. I've called these, respectively: * Rfc4930.xsd * Rfc4930Types.xsd However, the former (Rfc4930.xsd) will not validate in oXygen. Saxon gives a warning: SystemID: C:\Projects\RFC4930\Rfc4930.xsd Location: 8:60 Description: [SaxonSA] Cannot locate a schema for namespace urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:eppcom-1.0 This is followed by two errors: SystemID: C:\Projects\RFC4930\Rfc4930.xsd Location: 181:0 Description: [SaxonSA] The type {clIDType} is referenced, but has not been declared SystemID: C:\Projects\RFC4930\Rfc4930.xsd Location: 300:0 Description: [SaxonSA] The type {minTokenType} is referenced, but has not been declared I guess that the errors are occurring because the schema cannot be found. Can anyone explain to me what I have to do to get the types declared? I tried including the types document in the base schema, but that didn't help things. I guess the problem is fairly straightforward, but it appears nevertheless to be beyond me. Thanks in advance Peter

HttpUrlConnection and HTTP method in a Saxon extension
by Florent Georges 08 Jan '09

08 Jan '09

Hi, Best wishes to the oXygen team and users. I have a Saxon extension in Java, that opens an HTTP connection from a URL and set the HTTP method on it to POST: URL url = ...; HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(); conn.setRequestMethod("POST"); Unfortunately, the method is always GET, and there is no exception raised in that code. I must admit it took a while to find the cause. The code works well outside oXygen, and the object 'conn' is actually of type ro.sync.net.protocol.http.WebdavHttpURLConnection when the transform is launched from within oXygen. Is it because of a bug in this class? Is there any way to work around this one? Outside of oXygen, in a standalone Sun JVM, the class is sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection, for what is worth noting... Un an nou fericit! -- Florent Georges http://www.fgeorges.org/

Renaming a file?
