Problems with xalan translator

Post by Proofin »

Hi,

I would like to test the oxygen plugin for eclipse in the version 9.3.
I need the xalan translator. I get the
following error message if I would like to debug my scenario:
The required Xalan version is 2.7.0 !
Please put xalanOxygen.zip - from the lib directory
of this plugin - in the endorsed folder from your JRE/JDK
'D:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.6.0_05\lib\endorsed'
that is used for running Eclipse and restart Eclipse. Thank you!
There is no xalanOxygen.zip on my computer.
Where is my mistake?

I use:
winXP 64bit
Eclipse 3.4
oxygen 9.3

Thanks for help!

Hello,

Thank you for letting us know. The debugger perspective of the Oxygen plugin does not detect the Xalan version correctly. It should allow you to use Xalan for debugging the transformation without that error message. We will fix the problem in a short time.

We uploaded a new build (build number 2008071705) to the Download page. Please reinstall the Oxygen plugin in order to use Xalan in the Oxygen XSLT Debugger perspective.

You can check the build number from menu Window -> Preferences -> oXygen. If you install the Oxygen plugin now the build number will be 2008072212 because we uploaded a new build with a fix for other problem. You can see a list of all the fixes by clicking on the build number on the Download page of the Oxygen website.

It is the same version of the plugin (only the build number changed) so you have to uninstall teh old build, restart Eclipse and install the new build from the Download page. Please make sure you do not use a proxy server which cached the old version of the downloaded plugin (the file URL is the same).

Ok i have solved the problem. A colleague has shown me how i can update the perspective link.
(window -> show view -> other... -> oxygen debugger -> xslt debugger)

Now the debugger starts and use the xalan. :)

Thanks for the help.
