Protocol Handler Plugin
by Eliot Kimber 31 Oct '07

31 Oct '07

I seem to have my protocol handler working so that I can now open and save (commit) files back to the RSuite repository. A couple of feature requests that would make things a little cleaner/more complete: - The ability to set the read-only flag on the file, either on open or following a save. In my case, one can commit a file and release the lock on the file. But the file is still open in the editor so it needs to be set to read-only since the user cannot at that point save it back to the repository. - A way to silently cancel the save or otherwise provide a non-failure message. In my case, on save the user has to provide some check-in information (message, etc.) and can cancel the check-in at the point. All I can see to do is throw an IOException in that case, which results in a "Cannot save" message box, rather than either a "Save canceled" or just silence (either would be OK in this case). - A call on close so that I can, for example, give the user the opportunity to do a final commit or change the lock status or whatever. This is scenario where users might be saving to a temp location as they work and then want to save to the final location on close. Alternatively, a way to add my own save menu items, e.g., "save as new version", "commit and release lock", etc. I can provide these choices during save but users would expect those options on the File menu. It would also be useful to be able to get access to Oxygen-specific properties of the file, such as its validation status, so that I can prevent commit of invalid or non-well-formed docs. Obviously I can do those checks in my own code, but Oxygen already knows (or can know) those things. Thanks, Eliot -- W. Eliot Kimber Senior Solutions Architect Really Strategies, Inc.

I'd also like to know if there is some way one can assign the current file to a "for" variable to output it... I'd like the XQuery to be able to identify from which file it has gotten each result as it outputs the results... Brett

For debugging, I want to turn on the Log4J logging I have in my plugin components. How exactly do I do this for a plugin? Thanks, Eliot -- W.

Hi, I've this situation : file.xml: <effectiveTime xsi:type="PIVL_TS" operator="A"> file.sch: <assert test="child::cda:effectiveTime[position()=1]/@xsi:type='IVL_TS'"> error </assert> Testing with the other attribute (operator) works.

File opening
by Brett Zamir 26 Oct '07

26 Oct '07

Hi, After testing Oxygen, I've decided to purchase, but there is one bug which is very annoying. It seems that Oxygen doesn't exactly remember the last file folder I opened, and this can be problematic when I presume the file names showing up are the most recent ones (rather than some old backup folder I had accessed a while ago). thanks, Brett

oXygen 9 beta 2
by Khaled Aly 25 Oct '07

George Thanks for the great product and your responsiveness. I'm just thinking if there is currently a way, or if it would be within feasible means, to embed the ability to recognize and perform auto-complete and most important attribute menu selection for the LREs within an XSLT document. Of course I'm not looking for pre-validation of result. But with both HTML and FO, this could be a great feature and would cut on the development time specially if the number of attributes is large as is the case with XSL-FO. Involved LRE vocabularies can be identified from the xslt namespace declaration.

Ajax-like content completion list in oXygen?
by David Sewell 24 Oct '07

24 Oct '07

I'm wondering how the following might be accomplished in oXygen. Suppose I have an index of terms stored in an XML file, call it "index.xml". The file looks like this: <index> <entry>cats : and dogs</entry> <entry>cats : and mice</entry>  <index> I am editing an XML file, call it "doc.xml", in which I want to insert index terms contained in the index file, like so: <p>In 2006 Felix the cat caught over 200 mice.<index><term>cats: and mice</term></index></p> While editing doc.xml, after I type "<term>", I want to access a list of possible entries drawn from index.xml. Ideally this would be implemented in the manner of popular Ajax-based form entry, so that typing the first few letters would call up a window containing a list of all index entries beginning with those letters. Because index.xml could contain thousands of entries, this goes beyond what oXygen content completion or code templates are designed to do. Would this task require writing a plug-in for oXygen? Or are there off-the-shelf Ajax tools that would work with the Eclipse version of oXygen to enable this kind of interaction?

Implementing a URI Protocol Handler Plugin
by Eliot Kimber 23 Oct '07

23 Oct '07

I'm trying to implement a custom URI protocol handler and as part of that I'll be creating my own dialogs for choosing objects from the RSuite repository. My question is: does the URLChooserPluginExtension have access to the parent frame of the Oxygen application? I see that for example selection plugins do but I don't see any indication that URL chooser plugins do, but I think it would be good, for example, to be able to position my dialog relative to the Oxygen window or get minimize events or whatever (which I think getting the frame lets me do--I'm very new to Java GUI programming).
