Cannot find a matching 2-argument function named {org.dita.dost.util.ImgUtils}getWidth()
by Echlin, Robert 20 Sep '12

20 Sep '12

Hi I am trying to use oXygen to validate XSL that includes use of functions from "dost". The code runs in the DITA OT with no problems. Here is the error message: Description: Cannot find a matching 2-argument function named {org.dita.dost.util.ImgUtils}getWidth() Is there something I can do to my code or to my validation scenario to make oXygen validate this? Thanks, Rob -- Rob Echlin, Documentation Systems Architect, Wind River +1.613.270.5796 | Skype: rob.echlin.wr

Checking unique Element Ids
by Olumide 20 Sep '12

20 Sep '12

Is it possible to use XML 1.1 schema to verify that that elements in a document contain unique Ids. See For example the attached test XML document and Schema. Thanks. -------------- XML Document -------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Item> <c id="0"/> <a id="1"/> <a id="2"/> <b id="3"/> <a id="4"/> <b id="0"/> <d id="6"/> <d id="7"/> <b id="3"/> <c id="1"/> </Item> -------------- XML 1.1 Schema -------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified"> <xs:element name="Item"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded"> <xs:choice> <xs:element name="a"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="id" use="required"/> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> <xs:element name="b"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="id" use="required"/> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> <xs:element name="c"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="id" use="required"/> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> <xs:element name="d"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="id" use="required"/> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:choice> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:schema>

base-uri()
by Rushforth, Peter 18 Sep '12

18 Sep '12

Hi there, http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlbase/ says this: " In the example below, the base URI of element e2 should be returned as "http://example.org/wine/rosé". <?xml version="1.0"?> <e1 xml:base="http://example.org/wine/"> <e2 xml:base="rosé"/> </e1> " In oXygen 13.2, if I put the text input point after the e2 element and enter base-uri() into the xpath widget, the resulting value is "rosé" when the widget is set to process with XPath 2.0, whereas it is "http://example.org/wine/rosé" when evaluated with XPath 2.0 SA. When I run the following stylesheet against the same input using all three versions of saxon (including HE) built in, I get the full (correct) base URI as output. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" exclude-result-prefixes="xs" version="2.0"> <xsl:output method="text"/> <xsl:template match="/e1/e2"> <xsl:value-of select="base-uri()"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I think this must be a bug, unless I'm missing a setting somewhere? Thanks Peter Rushforth

Debugger stops showing parameters for a while?
by Lars Huttar 07 Sep '12

07 Sep '12

Hello, I'm using Oxygen 14.0, build 2012062215. In the debugger, with Saxon 9.4.0.3 PE. I have a stylesheet running with a specified XML document as input. A certain named template is called, <xsl:template name="allowed-formats"> <xsl:param name="mixedItemTypes" select="false()" as="xs:boolean"/> <xsl:param name="tableScopeType" select="''" as="xs:string"/> <xsl:variable name="file" select="."/> <xsl:variable name="typePlural" select="local-name($file/..)"/> I step through these lines one by one using "Step Into". When the cursor goes past the first <xsl:param> line, the debugger "Variables" window shows the mixedItemTypes parameter, as it should. But when I step past the second <xsl:param> line (and the cursor goes to the "."), the $mixedItemTypes parameter disappears from the Variables window, and the $tableScopeType parameter doesn't show up. After a few more steps in the same template, both parameters appear in the Variables window. This makes it very awkward to debug what's happening, if the time when you need to see the value of one of the parameters happens to be a time when it won't show up. Also, when these parameters are not showing in the "Variables" window, they also are inaccessible from expressions (e.g. "$tableScopeType") in the XWatch window. Thanks for helping me understand and overcome whatever is going on here. Lars

[Announce] Training invitation: autumn classes in XSLT, XSL-FO and UBL in Europe
by G. Ken Holman 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

For your autumn technical training planning, please note that there are four in-depth hands-on XML-related classes that I have written and will be delivering at the end of October in Utrecht Netherlands. The separate publicly-subscribed classes are in XSLT, XSL-FO, OASIS UBL and OASIS Code Lists. For 10% savings, the early-bird date of October 1, 2012 is now less than a month away. Please subscribe early to prevent the classes from being cancelled due to insufficient support by the early-bird date. The details can be found linked from a number of different sources: Our home page: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/x/ Open Source Academy (the host): http://www.opensourceacademy.nl/index.php?id=56&L=1 ePractice: http://www.epractice.eu/en/events/cranetraining LinkedIn: http://linkd.in/GUYLf2 I have had the privilege to deliver the material around the world many times over the years, and I have been the instructor for all of these deliveries: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/training/pastsch.htm By way of credentials for my work, we believe my qualifications compare very well against other contractors and trainers ... I am a day-by-day practitioner in these technologies and this will be an excellent opportunity for the students to learn from my guidance: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/bio/gkholman.htm By far most of our world training is delivered privately on-site for organizations, but we periodically schedule these publicly-subscribed classes to give the opportunity for companies to send fewer students than would typically warrant running a private class. For those unable to attend the live classes, there are two other options for XSLT. In 2008 the entire 5-day XSLT class was recorded as a 24-hour DVD-ROM, with exercises. The 2-DVD set can be purchased and shared as physical media: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/training/ptux/ptux-video.htm Alternatively, the entire 24 hours is uploaded for online viewing, with 5 hours marked as free access without having to create a Udemy account: http://www.CraneSoftwrights.com/links/udemy-ptux-online.htm Good luck in your training planning for the upcoming months.

Styling conrefs

I would like to style my conrefs so that during our internal PDF reviews we can quickly recognize what content is conrefed. I'd just like to make them slightly off-white or grey or stick a border on them or something along those lines. Any thoughts on how to do this?

Copy from Messages pane
by Karl Stubsjoen 30 Aug '12

30 Aug '12

I wish there was more options to copy from the Messages pane. Right now when you copy from the Messages pane you get a lot of info about where the source message came from, but I'd like to be able to copy just a selection of text from the message pane. What about a message View box, so you double click the message and you get all the details about the message and a text box with message in it that you can copy from. Or, is there a trick to copying out just the message text from the message pane? Thanks, Karl.. -- Karl Stubsjoen MeetScoresOnline.com (602) 845-0006

Framework add-ons -- what and where?
by Tony Graham 30 Aug '12

30 Aug '12

I am attempting to configure installing a framework as an add-on. I have an extensions XML file on a remote host defining the framework, and oXygen can find the file and provide all the right version and license information, but after I install the add-on and restart oXygen (or vice-versa, since it's not clear at what point the add-on is actually installed), there's no trace of the installed framework other than it being listed as "Installed" in the "Manage Add-ons..." dialog box. The file referred to from xt:location/href is a Zip file containing the oXygen framework file and, in subdirectories, the schema and Schematron files used in the framework. Is there anything about the layout in the Zip file that needs to change? oXygen says the add-on is installed, but where do I look to see what was downloaded, since the framework doesn't show up in the "Document Type Associations" preferences? It's making no difference whether or not I specifically run as "Administrator" on this Windows machine.
