Defining a transformation scenario is the first step in the process of transforming a
document. The following types of scenarios are available:
- XML
transformation with XSLT - specifies transform parameters and the location of
an XSLT stylesheet that Oxygen XML Editor applies to the
edited XML document. This scenario is useful when you develop an XML document and the XSLT
document is in its final form;
- XML
transformation with XQuery - specifies transform parameters and the location
of an XQuery file that Oxygen XML Editor applies to the
edited XML document;
- DITA-OT
transformation - specifies the parameters for an Ant transformation that
executes a DITA-OT build script. Oxygen XML Editor comes with a
built-in version of Ant and a built-in version of DITA-OT but different versions can be set
in the scenario;
- ANT transformation -
allows you to configure options and parameters of an ANT script;
- XSLT
transformation - specifies transform parameters and the location of an XML
document to which the edited XSLT stylesheet is applied. This scenario is useful when you
develop an XSLT document and the XML document is in its final form;
- XProc
transformation - contains the location of an XProc script and other transform
parameters;
- XQuery
transformation -specifies transform parameters and the location of an XML
source to which the edited XQuery file is applied. When the XML source is a native XML
database the XML source field of the scenario is empty because the XML data is read with
XQuery specific functions like document(). When the XML source is a local
XML file, the URL of the file is specified in the XML input field of the scenario;
- SQL transformation -
specifies a database connection for the database server that runs the SQL file associated
with the scenario. The data processed by the SQL script is located in the database.
