XML Schema & XInclude ?
by Timothy Reaves 26 Jul '07

26 Jul '07

I have an xml schema I've created. I'd like to have several XML documents that are combined into a larger one (I do this with DocBook & chapters). But I can't figure out how to do this with XMLSchema. Basically what I have is one xml document per environment (it's for configuration information). I'd like to have a parent document that has elements from the schema that are generic to the overall base, then includes the several smaller environment xml documents. Any ideas? Thanks!

iso schematron reports cause validation failure
by lars 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

Hello, I'm using Schematron to validate XML documents in Oxygen 8.2. My Schematron schema includes "asserts" (as usual) and also "reports." When a "report" is triggered, the message is displayed by oxygen (as it should be), but Oxygen also says "Validation failed: n errors", which I think is incorrect. My understanding from the Schematron spec is that "asserts" are for detecting validation errors, while reports are for giving the user neutral information. I couldn't find a very authoritative source for this, but these two articles support it: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2000/11/22/schematron.html?page=2 (The general intent is that /assert/ is used to detect errors, while /report/ can be used to report affirmative qualities of an instance.) http://www.ldodds.com/papers/schematron_xsltuk.html#c35e2592b6b3 While reports and asserts are effectively the inverse of one another, the intended uses of the two elements are quite different. An assert is used to test whether a document conforms to a particular schema, generating actions if deviations are encountered. A report is used to highlight features of the underlying data: *Example 6. A simple report* <report test="not(roof)">This house does not have a roof</assert> The distinction may seem subtle, especially when grapplying with a constraint which may be expressed simpler in one way or the other. However Schematron itself does not define the action which must be taken on a failed assert, or successful report, this is implementation specific. The default behaviour is to simply provide the user with the provided message. An implementation may choose to handle these two cases differently. So, it seems to me that when a "report" is triggered, oxygen should display the message but should not say that validation failed unless some "assert"s have failed. Lars

DocBook to PDF on v8.2 (w/ attachment)
by Khaled Aly 23 Jul '07

23 Jul '07

Hi I'm trying DocBook transformation to PDF for the first time. I followed the configuration parameters as per the Help pages (btw, some menus in Help pages are not up-to-date with 8.2). I tried all Saxon and Xalan transformers. I consistently get a Java error message, on one very long line, in the attached file. Would much appreciate any guidance of getting it to work (I didn't have this problem with v.8.1). Regards, Khaled Aly

[defect] Eclipse plugin & full size editor
by Timothy Reaves 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

With 8.2 Eclipse 3.3 plugin, there is a defect where when I am editing with the edit area maximized, any error pops up the console/problem area, removing focus from the edit area. This is more than a little annoying! Damn near every single keystroke causes this. So for example, simply typing <mytag Will cause this to happen six times, once after each keystroke! Yes, I under stand that < and <m and <my and <myt and <myta and <mytag are each invalid. But I'm still typing. The same applies to attributes of compleated tags. In full size mode, validate should show errors on the edit window, but should not transfer focus to the errors tab.

Is it possible to have a folder added to a project scanned for new files? Or must they always be added manually?

Save Failed:null
by Michael Allman 17 Jul '07

17 Jul '07

Hi, Since upgrading to Oxygen 8.2 from 7.2 I've encountered a very annoying error with the XQuery editor. If I load an XQuery file, modify it, and then attempt to save it I get an error dialog stating simply "Save Failed:null". I'm running Oxygen as an Eclipse plugin. The Eclipse error log entry looks like eclipse.buildId=M20070212-1330 java.version=1.5.0_07 java.vendor=Apple Computer, Inc. BootLoader constants: OS=macosx, ARCH=x86, WS=carbon, NL=en_US Framework arguments: -keyring /Users/msa/.eclipse_keyring -showlocation Command-line arguments: -os macosx -ws carbon -keyring /Users/msa/.eclipse_keyring -consoleLog -showlocation Error Mon Jul 16 10:35:47 PDT 2007 Save Failed I have "Check errors on save" enabled. If I turn it off, I don't have this problem. If I validate the file before saving, I don't have this problem. The problem only occurs if I attempt to save the file without validating it first. This is very annoying. I hope you can help. Thanks. Michael

Currently the only VM supported is 1.4. When will 1.5, and the current 1.6 (on 10.5) be supported?
