Hello,

Oxygen does not follow Mac aliases from paths (nor Windows shortcuts for the matter). There is no setting that can be enabled to support this. Note that you can browse for files to open/save and navigate aliases, but they are immediately resolved as soon as they are opened. Unfortunately this is rather difficult to implement in Java since Java itself is not aware of aliases. I've submitted this on our issue tracking tool to be analyzed.

Aliases and symbolic links still create local dependencies. Why not use an XML catalog instead?

I hadn't thought of that. Thanks for the tip. Tara

I set up an alias in the Mac finder to point to some schemas that are imported into another (Relax NG) schema. The importing schema does not validate - it doesn't seem to follow the alias.

System ID: /Users/taraathan/Repositories/.../trunk/schemas/relaxng/a.rnc Main validation file: /Users/taraathan/Repositories/.../trunk/schemas/relaxng/a.rnc Engine name: Jing Severity: error Description: FileNotFoundException - /Users/taraathan/Repositories/.../trunk/schemas/relaxng/c/modules/b.rnc (Not a directory)

Is there a setting to enable alias-following, or is this a bug? I suppose I can go to the command line and make a symbolic link, but I was hoping for a convenient GUI option here.

Thanks, Tara
