[oXygen-user] Using Catalogs with Saxon8B XQuery Processor

[Sorin Ristache]

Hello,

If the collection query does not specify an XML catalog enabled XML 
parser as the "parser" parameter then Saxon 8 uses the default JAXP 
XMLReader implementation for parsing the collection files which is 
usually not catalog enabled. In order to use the XML catalog set in the 
oXygen preferences you have to specify the class name 
ro.sync.xml.parser.CatalogEnabledXMLReader in your query:

   let $docs := 
collection(iri-to-uri("mydocsdir?recurse=yes;select=*.xml;parser=ro.sync.xml.parser.CatalogEnabledXMLReader"))


Regards,
Sorin
