Font metrics file location
by Timothy Reaves 17 Aug '06

17 Aug '06

Where are these xml files supposed to go? If I put them in the directory specified in the PDF on the site, they are not found. If I hard code them in the fopConfiguration.xml, they are found. But I'd prefer not to hard code the location.

Re: [oXygen-user] weird transformation error message
by Sorin Ristache 17 Aug '06

17 Aug '06

Hello, I think 20060628 means June 28, 2006 which is older, not newer than the date of the stable release, June 29, 2006. As we specify on the Download page of the oXygen website we support only stable official releases of Eclipse. This is why I recommend an official release of Eclipse. Anyway the Warnings view is a built-in view of Eclipse with no connection to the oXygen plugin.

weird transformation error message
by Chris Chiasson 17 Aug '06

17 Aug '06

In transforming a document that came out fine and produced only the standard "stripping ns from DocBook 5/NG ...", "processing stripped ...", "id recommended on..." warnings, the oXygen Eclipse plugin (assumedly) poped up a window saying "an error occurred" and "see error log for details". The dialog had only an OK button. The error doesn't seem to appear on repeats of the same transformation, but I have seen it before when working with the oXygen plugin. I am not sure where to look for the aforementioned log. A search of the oXygen site does not reveal the message. So, to the point: Has anyone seen this error message? What, if anything, may be done to eliminate it? -- http://chris.chiasson.name/

XInclude
by Mark Seaborne 15 Aug '06

15 Aug '06

Hi I am just starting to experiment with Oxygen's XInclude support. I now have a document that uses XInclude and Oxygen has XInclude switched on. Apart from checking well-formedness/validity across the XML instances what other functionality does Oxygen give me? For example can I view the document with the XInclude statements resolved, or can I choose to save the document either before or after XInclude processing? The help documentation is not very forthcoming on the subject (unless I am missing something obvious, which I don't rule out). All the best Mark

two newbie questions
by Chris Chiasson 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Hello oXygen-user list, Will someone please explain how to add oXygen project resources to an existing Eclipse project? I can't make it transform the existing xml files in one of my projects. Failing that, will someone please explain why the standalone editor does not automatically show the result of a transformation in the project tree when the advice in this thread (about using oXygen on a Subversion checkout) is followed? http://www.oxygenxml.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=6035&sid=da8c7ae54211a6df2df… Thank you kindly, -- http://chris.chiasson.name/

set schema on version attribute
by Chris Chiasson 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Is there a way to have oXygen select different RELAX NG schemas depending on the version attribute of an XML document's root element? Also, why, if I make a document like the following, do I receive the error, "element "equation" from namespace "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" not allowed in this context. Is it not allowed in the schema? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <equation xmlns='http://docbook.org/ns/docbook' version='5'> <title>Fermat's Last Theorem</title> <alt>x^n + y^n ≠ z^n ∀ n ≠ 2</alt> <mathphrase>x<superscript>n</superscript> + y<superscript>n</superscript> ≠ z<superscript>n</superscript> ∀ n ≠ 2</mathphrase> </equation> Thank you, -- http://chris.chiasson.name/

Re: xml catalog relative path resolution
by Alexander Voss 09 Aug '06

09 Aug '06

Hi, thanks for the clarification. I read your message as saying that oXygen complies with the specification. However, as I see it this leaves an important question open: in the absence of an explicitly defined base URL, what is taken to be the base? The location of the XML catalogue or the current working directory? oXygen seems to use the latter whereas other tools seem to use the former. (e.g., Ant, see http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTypes/xmlcatalog.html although this page does not say anything about the xml:base attribute???) If the specification does not define what base URI is used in the absence of an xml:base attribute then it is incomplete. I should either define a sensible default (such as the XML catalogue location) or declare this illegal (i.e. you must not have a relative URI if you don't specify a base URI). IMHO the former would be much more useful. I hope I haven't missed anything. If I am right about this is it not time to change the spec?

Hi, can anybody say what the resolution algorithm is for resolving relative paths given in XML catalogues? Or point me to a place that explains this?

Transformation scenario error message?

I have a Transformation Scenario that fails. This scenario uses a customization layer, and a FOP configuration file for embedding fonts. I've checked and double checked all my paths, and they are accurate: the FOP configuration file (I used the browser to select the file), the font metrics and TTF locations, etc. The only error I get when it fails is below: Description: The process 'FOP' ended with code : 2 The error was : [ERROR] null Is there any way to get more output? Thanks.

calling templates in imported files (XSLT)

It is not a big deal, but when I call a template that is in an imported xsl file, Oxygen complains that the template does not exist. Is there a way to shut that warning off, or have it resolve templates in open files, project files or have it trace the imports for a multiple file transform?

Newbie question on XSLT - how to generate table columns dynamically

The XML file is shown below. In this case, the number of columns is 3 and column names are the elements' name (e.g., COUNTRY_ID, COUNTRY_NAME and REGION_ID.

Using Oxygen under Linux

Dear All, I'm currently using Oxygen 7.2 under Linux specifically, Ubuntu 6.06. Unfortunately I can't create a menu item, or a launcher on the desktop, that will start Oxygen correctly. For those unfamiliar with Ubuntu it uses Gnome as window manager by default. I can create the menu item, or launcher, and can confirm all of the paths are correct. Oxygen appears to start, I can see a process start and HDD activity, however no window is displayed and the process quickly stops. If I launch oxygen via a terminal window, inside gnome, everything works as expected. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Validating multi-file XSL transformations with
by Mary Ellen Foster 12 Jun '06

12 Jun '06

I've just started playing with oXygen as an XML plug-in for Eclipse. So far, it seems great; however, I've got a large set of XSL stylesheets I'd like to work on, and unfortunately the built-in validation says that they're invalid. They do currently work, using Xalan as the XSL-processing engine, so I'm reluctant to change the structure radically. In a nutshell, here's what's happening; this is obviously a huge simplification, and in the real project I get a *zillion* similar warnings: ----- Main file ----- <xsl:transform> <xsl:include href="include/file1.xsl"/> <xsl:include href="include/file2.xsl"/> </xsl:transform> ----- End main file ----- ----- include/file1.xsl ----- <xsl:transform> <xsl:variable name="foo">abc</xsl:variable> </xsl:transform> ----- End of file1.xsl ----- ----- include/file2.xsl ----- <xsl:transform> <xsl:template match="root"> <root foo="{$foo}"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:transform> ----- End of file2.xsl ----- This successfully transforms the tiny document "<root/>" into "<root foo='abc'/>"; however, when I open include/file2.xsl in oXygen, I always get a warning that variable "foo" has not been initialised. Is there a way to make that not happen? Thanks for any suggestions, MEF -- Mary Ellen Foster http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/mef/

[oXygen-user] Problem making new, or editing Transformation Scenario
by Nigel_Harrison＠lesoftco.co.uk 12 Jun '06

12 Jun '06

Using the new 7.2 release Eclipse plugin, I have a problem adding new, or editing a Transformation Scenario. Either from the XML menu, or from the button bar, whether I click New, or select and click Edit, no dialog appears to edit the scenario. I also have the standalone version installed, and the problem does not happen there. I guess that implies that the problem may be in my Eclipse setup (although all was fine before I upgraded to 7.2), so, in case it's useful: Platform: Windows XP Eclipse: 3.1.0 Java: Sun 1.5.0 Thanks Nigel Harrison

svn client
by Timothy Reaves 09 Jun '06

09 Jun '06

This looks really interesting. Unfortunately, I can't use it. Most of my repositories are accessed via svn+ssh. However, when I enter this, oXygen insists that I enter auth credentials. This is silly. I use other things for ssh auth. How quickly can you correct this defect, and make auth optional in the setup?
