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
by Chris Chiasson 21 Dec '06

21 Dec '06

Sometimes, when using the format + indent element on a <para>, oXygen will indent the XML as follows: blah blah blah <olink targetdoc="self" targetptr="Engineering_Optimization_Main_Code" /> blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah I'd prefer: blah blah blah <olink targetdoc="self" targetptr="Engineering_Optimization_Main_Code"/> blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah Is it possible to instruct oXygen to do what I prefer? -- http://chris.chiasson.name/

Re: [oXygen-user] date time format when importing from Excel
by Sorin Ristache 27 Nov '06

27 Nov '06

Hello Robert, The format of the date in the result of the import operation is the format used by java.util.Date.toString(): dow mon dd hh:mm:ss zzz yyyy (day-of-week month day-of-month hour:minute:second timezone year) If you need an ISO 8601 format I think you can ignore the first token (dow) and rearrange the rest of the tokens. Also you need a mapping from the java.util.Date style of the timezone (GMT, PST, etc) to the ISO 8601 one (-01:00, -10:00, etc). In a future version we will allow the configuration of the date format. Regards, Sorin http://www.oxygenxml.com Robert Walpole wrote: > Thanks Sorin.

date time format when importing from Excel
by Robert Walpole 27 Nov '06

27 Nov '06

Hi, I am using oXygen's very useful import tool to convert some data in a spreadsheet to XML. In the spreadsheet there are several fields which contain a date/time. When I import these fields they come out in the format <date>Fri Dec 06 00:00:00 GMT 2002</date> no matter what format I use in the source document. It seems to me that oXygen is correctly recognising that these are dates but then putting them into a format which I don't recognise. Really I want them to be ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sss). I have tried defining this as a custom format in the spreadsheet but it is still coming out as shown when I run the import. Is there some way I can specify the format I want in oXygen? Thanks Rob Walpole

doesn't work: Configurable Initial Directory of the File Open Dialog
by Lars Huttar 24 Nov '06

24 Nov '06

Hello, In Oxygen 8.0, build 2006111719, on Windows XP, I went to the Options / Preferences dialog, and for "File chooser dialog opens in" I selected "Directory of the edited file". I clicked OK. Then I clicked on one of the editor tabs to select an open file. I typed Ctrl+O to open the Open File dialog. Expected result: the open file dialog would open in the directory of the edited file. Actual result: it opened in a completely different directory, possibly that of the last opened file. Postscript: later, having restarted Oxygen, I tried this again, and this time it worked as expected. Maybe you have to restart Oxygen after changing the setting? Lars

Errors using Oxygen 8.0RC1 with eXist in Eclipse
by Daniel E. Renfer 13 Nov '06

13 Nov '06

Hello, I am getting a few errors when trying to test the new RC of oXygen in Eclipse. I've tested this on both my development install of Eclipse and eXist under Ubuntu Edgy Eft, and with a fresh install of Eclipse/eXist under Windows XP. When I try to configure an eXist db in the Oxygen DB perspective, I get "ERROR: org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpClient" I don't always get this error. I've been able to get the listing of collections from time to time. I tested this with the standalone Oxygen after I was able to get the listing under XP, because I didn't realize at the time that Oxygen refuses to open any file that's not *.xml (very annoying btw) I was able to open and save /db/system/users.xml, but when I went back into Eclipse to see if I could open that file, I saw the same httpclient error that I originally saw on Ubuntu. When I first tried to upgrade from the 7.2 plugin to the 8.0RC1 plugin under Ubuntu (with other existing plugins) I started getting errors that the view could not be displayed, and that I should check the log. I'm not quite sure where this log would be, but I found a few messages related to Oxygen in ~/workspace/.metadata/.log as well as some more recent ones related to Aptana. I'm not sure if it's a conflict with Aptana and Oxygen, or if Aptana was just screwing up on it's own. I removed Aptana and a few (but not all) of the errors went away. I also removed all Oxygen plugins and re-installed, which took care of a few more errors. On a few occasions, I got notification that the resource was locked, and was asked if it should try to re-lock it. This may or may not be because all during this time I was running eXist from within Tomcat from within Eclipse. I ended up re-starting many times and the server didn't always get shut down properly every time. This was why I decided to reboot and try it under XP with fresh everything. (Eclipse, workspace, Oxygen plugin, eXist 1.1.1 running under jetty) I'm using the latest JDK in all instances. Are these bugs with Oxygen, or am I doing things wrong? Does it screw it up if you try to include jars in addition to the 3 required? What if they're named differently? Thank you for making a great editor. I hope these issues can be resolved. Daniel E. Renfer http://kronkltd.net/

Problem switching from trial key to commercial key in diff files program
by Busch Paul 09 Nov '06

09 Nov '06

Hi all, approximately a month ago I installed oXygen 7.2 and acquired a trial license. When the trial period neared its end a counter indicating the days left began to show up at start up. I purchased a professional license and pasted the key at the appropriate place. Everything went fine. The counter ceased to show. Only when starting the (definitely second to nothing) diff files program standalone the counter would still appear indicating the days left on the trial license. I looked for a way to tell the diff files program about my newly acquired license key, but there seemed to be no way to do that. A reinstall didn't help either as the uninstall procedure does not seem to purge license keys. I decided to wait what would happen when the trial license would finally expire which happened today. The diff files program told me that the trial period was over and gave me the opportunity to paste my key. So in the end everything turned to good account but I don't think that's the way it should work. I thought I'd let you know so other users can be spared the experience. And if anyone knows advice on how to reliably purge a (trial) license key without formatting the hard disk I'd gratefully take it. Best regards. Paul
