Predefined values in "ask" variable

[xephon]

Hi,

I have a custom parameter in the plugin.xml of my plugin:

Code: Select all

<transtype name="termchecker-dita" extends="html5" desc="Termchecker for DITA">

    <param name="args.language" desc="Language of the terminology check rules" type="enum">

      <val>af</val> 

      <val>ar-AE</val> 

      <val>ar-BH</val> 

      <val>ar-DZ</val> 

      <val>ar-EG</val> 

      <val>ar-IQ</val>

      ...

As you can see, the parameter has a limited set of values that indicate languages. In the Edit Parameter window, <oXygen/> shows me a list of those values. Now I want the author to choose one of these values when starting the transformation scenario. (How) can I use ${ask} (or something similar) for that? As I understand ${ask}, I always have to define a list of values in the Edit Parameter window. Do I have to redefine them here?

So what I'd like to do is using ${ask} without values: ${ask('Choose language', combobox)}

Hi Stefan,

I cannot think of another solution other than redefining the values in the $ask expression.
