Odd Failure in Schema Documentation Generation
by W. Eliot Kimber 08 Mar '07

08 Mar '07

I'm trying to generate documentation for a schema that is a DITA specialization schema, which means it includes all the base DITA 1.1 schema stuff. My includes look like this: <xs:include schemaLocation="./subsectionGrp.xsd"/> <xs:include schemaLocation="../dita_1_1/metaDeclGrp.xsd"/> <xs:include schemaLocation="../dita_1_1/tblDeclGrp.xsd"/> <xs:include schemaLocation="../dita_1_1/topicGrp.xsd"/> When I do the documentation generation, I turn on generation of documentation for included schemas. The failure is that it fails with a message saying it couldn't find tblDeclGrp.xsd, even though the file is there (that is my specialized schema works fine and "Open file at cursor" on the above include works). This feels like a bug with how the documentation generator is resolving relative locations. If needed I can try to create a simple non-client-specific test case the demonstrates the failure.

ADVICE: Validation, XInclude, thread order
by Paul Everitt 02 Mar '07

02 Mar '07

My apologies, this is going to sound pretty weird. Background ------------------- I'm on a project that is using oXygen quite heavily to manage the "front end" of a web system. The site is organized by packages of screens. Each screen has local XML data modeling what the back-end should provide. Once modeled, the back-end developers implement something to match that model of the screen data. We then validate (RNG+Schematron) that the connection is as expected. During the course of this, I've started using lots of oXygen facilities to make things more productive. In this case, I have a master XML document with XIncludes to all the screens in the system. A transformation scenario converts this into a new output document with all the XIncludes merged, and with the PIs for the the RNG/SCH. People on the project can then do something like a unit test: open this master document, click the red play button, then click the red check button to validate all remote screens. In fact, since we can cheat and do add/edit/delete via a URL, they can validate form responses. And thus the problem... Problem ------------------- In my test scenario, order matters. I need to create a sample folder, add some documents to it, validate those documents, then delete them. All this is done by URL parameters on the XInclude (yes, this is cheating on GET.) If the delete happens before the add, though...well, it doesn't work. Unfortunately, I think XInclude happens via threads. Thus, the order entries appear in the XML document doesn't mean order of operation, and I delete something before it is added. I've thought about splitting the XML document up into a test_setup.xml, test.xml, and test_teardown.xml sequence. But unfortunately, I'd wind up with several setups and teardowns, based on containment. The only think I can think of is to have one document per "test", and make people run them one at a time. Which would suck. Or, have a multi-step transform scenario, and use XSLT document() to assemble all the screens linearly, instead of XInclude. Any ideas? --Paul

Using Custom Parser With XSLT Processors
by W. Eliot Kimber 01 Mar '07

01 Mar '07

In order to do XSLT processing with schema PSVI information (in particular, attribute defaults), I have created a little SAX parser factory for Xerces that turns on all the schema stuff. I can then use this with, for example, Saxon, to do schema-aware XSLT (for example, DITA-aware processing that depends on the class= attribute). I'm trying to figure out how to integrate this parser with Oxygen so that I can run my transforms from within Oxygen. I tried adding the necessary JVM arg to the oxygen INI file adding the library with the parser factory class to the classpath, but it didn't seem to do anything--I suspect that the XSLT process needs it's own JVM args spec, but the only thing I saw as a place to specify a transformer factory (I can do if I have to but then I'm looked into a specific version of Saxon, for example). Have I missed something or am I going about this the wrong way? Thanks, Eliot -- W. Eliot Kimber Professional Services Innodata Isogen 8500 N.

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

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

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...

Setting up and using Catalogs for XSD-Based Documents
by W. Eliot Kimber 25 Jan '07

25 Jan '07

I'm trying, pretty much for the first time, to configure Oxygen 8.1 to use a catalog to resolve noNamespaceSchemaLocation= values. For example, I have this document root element: <map xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:map" > (The URN is one I made up just for testing) And this catalog: <catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog" prefer="public"> <group xml:base="schema/"> <uri name="urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:map" uri="map.xsd"/> <public publicId="urn:oasis:names:tc:dita:xsd:map" uri="map.xsd"/> </group> </catalog> Where schema/ is a directory below the directory containing the catalog and the files are there (that is, a document in the same directory as the catalog with this root element is valid: <map xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="./schema/map.xsd"> I have turned on catalog verbosity and I can see in the catalogs tab that my catalog is being loaded, but I'm not sure what the "Public: " messages are telling me, but I'm seeing entries like this: SystemID: null Description: Public: null System: file:/C:/projects/DITA-OT1.3.1/schema/tblDeclMod.xsd = null In any case, my document that uses the URN is not being validated--I get the "there is no schema or DTD associated with this document" message. Is this user error or a limitation of the catalog mechanism? Thanks, Eliot -- W. Eliot Kimber Professional Services Innodata Isogen 8500 N.

Oxygen Eclipse Editor Not Getting Correct Encoding
by W. Eliot Kimber 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Suggestion on the Eclipse plug-in docs: it would be helpful to mention that you may need to explicitly set the encoding for XML documents that have a non-standard extension and that are being reported as ASCII rather than UTF-8 by Eclipse. It took me a while to figure this out (and I might never have if I didn't dimly remember being able to set the encoding in the package explorer). Cheers, Eliot -- W.

[bug][SVNClient] Encoding issue
by Timothy Reaves 04 Jan '07

04 Jan '07

When I double-click a file to do a compare (from one particular repository, not all), I get an error dialog: Operation failed: Got a character coding exception. To ignore these errors or to replace invalid characters please change in oXygen preferences the "Encoding errors handling" from REPORT to IGNORE or REPLACE. UTF8 - java.nio.charset.MalformedInputException [Input length = 1] First of all, I'm not real sure what the error means. The repository is for a muli-language application (LyX) and does support multiple character sets. Secondly, I have gone into oXygen and change that setting to IGNORE, and still get the error.

xquery results in utf-8 charset
by Roland Henkel 03 Jan '07

03 Jan '07

Hello, Sorry, I am new in that list (and in oxygen, too). May be, my question already was discussed earlier. I have tried oxygen 8 on two pcs both with win2k SP4. Among other things I tested some queries against a Berkeley xml db 2. 3. 8 database containing utf-8 contents. So far so well. But the results are shown right in utf-8 charset on the first pc but as little squares on the other. I wonder at the cause of this difference. Is there a configuration option ? Is something different in the win2k environment ? What could it be? May be this a wellknown simple problem. Does somebody know the solution? Regards, Roland

wrong conjunction for multiple pattern facets?
by Syd Bauman 30 Dec '06

30 Dec '06

[This may be a FAQ, in which case I apologize in advance. I have searched the list archives, but not the forums, for postings related to this issue.] It seems that oXygen's XML validator does not know how to properly apply multiple 'pattern' facets when validating against a RelaxNG grammar. To my knowledge, multiple occurrences of a 'pattern' facet are allowed on xsd: datatypes; the content in the instance should match all of the patterns specified in order to be considered valid. When several <param> elements are included, all the constraints must be met (in other words, the result is a logical "and" of all the conditions). Also note that the same facet can't be repeated twice except for the facet named 'pattern'. -- van der Vlist, Eric. _RELAX_NG_, Ch 8 sect. "Facets", p. 93 However, oXygen's internal validator (xerces, right?) seems to use "or" instead of "and". Here is a test. --------- begin t.rnc --------- datatypes xsd = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-datatypes" start = element test { element alpha { xsd:token { pattern = "a{1,9}B{3}c" pattern = "a{3}B{1,9}c" maxLength = "25" } }+ } --------- end t.rnc --------- --------- begin t.xml --------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <?oxygen RNGSchema="file:/private/tmp/t.rnc" type="compact"?> <test> <alpha>aaaBBBc</alpha> <alpha>aBBBc</alpha> <alpha>aaaBc</alpha> </test> --------- end t.xml --------- I expect the above file to be invalid: line 6 fails to match the first xsd pattern in the schema and line 5 fails to match the second. I expect line 4 to be valid. I ran xmllint, jing, and rnv on the command-line, and they all flag lines 5 & 6 as invalid (i.e., they agree with me.) I don't know how to run xerces from the command-line. (Feel free to tell me ... :-) But oXygen says t.xml is valid (both the "live" validation that occurs while I type and the "static" validation that occurs with CMD-shift-V say it is valid).

improper completion when co-occurrence constraint
by Syd Bauman 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

First, in case my disappointment at not being able to use oXygen as I'd like with co-occurrence constraints shows, let me say up front that I am very fond of oXygen, and will continue using it even if the following problem can't be fixed / worked around / made to go away by straightening this user out. Now, my problem. Given the following valid RelaxNG schema: --------- begin cocTest.rnc --------- start = element test { element thing { attribute n { "1" }, ("One" | "First") }, element thing { attribute n { "2" }, ("Two" | "Second") } } --------- end cocTest.rnc --------- oXygen does not perform completion properly. E.g., the pop-up list of values for the second <thing> has "One" and "First". (Validation ala cmd-shift-V does validate properly.) Sniff!

formating and indenting "long" elements
