Peter, I saw your question on the XSLT and Oxygen mailing lists... On 10/7/2008 10:25 AM, Bradley, Peter wrote:
Hi,
I am producing a very large (50MB) XML file via a transformation. Once the file has been produced, it passes through a validation process (another transformation) - for business rules compliance of the original data - as a result of which we occasionally need to examine the xml file in an editor.
One question I have - do you need to *edit* the resulting XML file, or just examine it? If you only need to *see* it, that would open up other alternatives. E.g. opening the file in a browser. Currently Firefox is slow on opening large XML files -- you have to wait till the whole file is rendered with styles before you can see any of it -- but I have modified the stylesheet it uses so that it only renders the first n (e.g. 1000) elements. That in itself may not be what you want but my point is that browsers do indent-and-display XML documents, and there may be some browsers / configurations that are fast enough. I don't remember how IE performs when rendering XML documents. Google Chrome won't work -- it just displays the text content. Lars
When I use oXygen to view the file, it takes over 30 minutes to load.
The large file viewer is of no use because it does not format the input. Without formatting, the input is just a single long line of unformatted XML.
The contents of the oxygen.vmoptions file is:
-Xmx1450m -Dcom.oxygenxml.language=English
Oxygen is set to format and indent on load.
Is there any way that oXygen can be configured to load and display the data more quickly?
Cheers
Peter
