[oXygen-user] Batch transformations

[John Fitzpatrick]

Batch transformations is something I've been trying to do for a while. I
have one XSL and I was to run it against ~50 XML files.  Currently I
have to run something like this in a dos shell: 

java  -jar saxon9.jar -s:. -xsl:transform.xsl

Under "Configure transformation scenario..." it allows you to select one
XSL and one XML. It would be nice if you could select a directory for
the XML (so run against all XML in that directory), or specify *.xml

Is there a way around this?

Hi Wendell,

That functionality should be covered now with the support to associate 
transformation scenarios on the project selected files, including 
folders. So you can use the "Configure transformation scenario..." 
action on a folder (or on your selection) and select the scenario then 
close the dialog with the "Transform now" button if you want the 
scenario to be applied immediately after closing the dialog. Further you

can trigger the transformation again with the "Apply transformation 
scenario" action.

Thinking now about this I think it may be good to add also the 
"Transform with..." action back as that allows applying a scenario 
without associating it with the documents (or folders). Let me know also

if your use case is not covered by this scenario association that we 
have in version 11.

Best Regards,
George
