Hello everybody, The *best version of <oXygen/> ever* is ready for a first run :). We just uploaded a beta build of the new oXygen 6 at the URLs below [1]. Please give it a try and let us know your feedback. The first main new feature is the *schema visual diagram*. Strong points are: - support for both *XML Schemas* and *Relax NG schemas* - side by side source and diagram presentation - source and diagram are synchronized in *real time* (no background parsing) - print and save as image support Another important feature is the *diff and merge* support (available only from the standalone distributions). It is in fact a *complete diff and merge solution featuring - 6 diff algorithms (*XML Accurate*, *XML Fast*, *Syntax Aware*, *Line* level, *Word* level and *Character* level) - both *file and directory* comparison and merging - a nice GUI presentation of the diff results with *change guide lines* and *synchronized scrolling* - support for automatic selection of the diff algorithm - the possibility to *go into details* at word or character level on the found modifications - *editing* any of the documents directly in the diff GUI - easy invocation of the diff from the project panel and more. The third main feature is the import support from a number of external data sources like - any JDBC enabled database - comma, space, tab, semicolon separated text files - Excel sheets Of course there are a lot of other features, like XML Signature support (sign and verify), XML Canonicalization support, the possibility to define proxy namespace mappings for the XPath evaluations, support for the latest Saxon 8.4 for XSLT 2.0, improvements in the performance and in the user interaction and more. Enjoy, and do not forget to send us feedback ;) ! Hmm...
