At the moment, switching from the xslt debugger perspective to any different perspective and then back again causes the selected engine to revert to saxon 6.5. I think that it would be much better if it retained the previously selected engine. That is, if I have saxon 8b selected, and I switch to an...

Oh, OK, I hadn't noticed that view. Thanks.

If you try to place a breakpoint on an empty line or on a line with only an end tag then the oXygen plugin displays the error "Breakpoints can only be created on a line containing the end of a start tag". Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. Take this template <xsl:template match="sls:SLS&...

for example Ctrl+Shift+F5 the new shortcut executes Step In when you are in the XSLT Debugger perspective. It does not matter the view or the editor that has the focus when you use the shortcut. This is not correct. "Category" merely groups the various commands together. You'll notice tha...

I want to have the run/debug keyboard shortcuts to be the same when I am debugging XSLT as when I am debugging Java. the XSLT debugger shortcuts are present in the "keys" preferences section, which is great, but I can't access an appropriate context to set them in. What I want is a "O...

I notice that this is still the behaviour in oxygen 9. When debugging java with eclipse, if you try to place a breakpoint somewhere where it will not work, eclipse automatically moves the breakpoint to the next line where it will successfully break. I think that this behaviour is far more user-frien...

When debugging and you click on a variable, the editor context automatically jumps to the variable declaration. I can see that this could be useful at certain times, but I find that I almost always would rather that the editor stayed exactly where it was - ie the current execution point. This is muc...

I have been using xsl:message to debug my stylesheets, and when running them with oxygens debugger I can't find my messages appearing anywhere. Messages that terminate the transformation appear as problems, but even in this case I can't find my message text which contains the actual information abou...

This is still a major issue with oxygen 9. It can produce the following very irritating situation: An XML file is open in eclipse when it is exited. While eclipse is closed, another process changes that file and it becomes very large. Then eclipse will not start because oxygen spends forever trying ...

It would be great if it was possible to call xslt-2.0 functions (ie ones declared in the stylesheet using <xsl:function>) from the XWatch window. Also, I frequently use entities to replace repetitive or verbose XPath expressions with shorter more meaningful names. This works nicely, until I need to ...

I find it maddening when debugging XSLT when the processor is paused on an instruction, and I cannot examine variables which "should" have been processed before that instruction. I realise that the processor (I am using saxon 8b) executes variable descriptions in a lazy fashion, but when t...

Hi, I just read through this post again to try to figure out a solution to the persistent problem of oxygen hanging when you (inadvertantly) try to open a large XML document. I am running Linux and JRockit and Eclipse, and I turned off code folding, validate as you type, and also the parser validati...

Just noticed another issue with toolbars in oxygen 8.2. I had just loaded eclipse and had not yet done anything with it. The perspective opened up with my previous files, which were one xml document and one xslt document. There were 2 oxygen toolbars on screen, one greyed out. It looks like they mus...

At the moment this view takes up the equivalent of 4-5 lines of screen realestate. It would be much better if the widgets within this view were all moved into a toolbar, just as they are in the standalone version. Then they would consume much less screen space. Ditto for the xquery toolbar. Also, it...

That is to say, clearly there is little use for "replace", but when the result document is large "find" is very helpful.

Currently this seems to be disabled. It would be great if it worked.

It would be even better if the outline view could display the outline of the active result view.

Hi, There's a number of features that the eclipse java environment provides that would be very useful for debugging complex xslt/xqueries. These include: - Mark occurrences - Tooltip for user-defined functions showing function prototype (ie argument names) - F3 to navigate from a function call to th...

It would be great if the XSLT editor supported "show definition" for variables/functions/templates/parameters (from with-param to param in the called template) and so on.

It would also be great if all of the editors supported "show definition" for entity references.

Currently, it appears that auto-complete (for example for functions/templates/variables in XSLT, or elements/types in XSD) only lists types visible directly in the current document or others imported by it. It would be great if auto-complete could also pick up other objects that are visible in the a...

they have different install links. Yes, I noticed that. I looked at the 3.3 link and (incorrectly) concluded that the update manifest for both eclipse 3.2 and eclipse 3.3 had oxygen version 8.2.0 and that therefore I already had the right version. Maybe it would be good for oxygen to inform me that...

Validation across multiple stylesheets is supported. :oops: Thanks for letting me know about this. It will resolve no end of hassles for me. Do you mean that the problem tag does not contain a location specified by file name and line number? No, my problem (now partially solved) was finding the pro...

Is the renamed file already opened in an editor panel when the Rename operation is executed in the Navigator view? Yes If yes then I can see that the title of the editor panel is updated correctly when the Eclipse resource is renamed Yes, that is the same for me. and also I can see that the result ...

When the XSLT debugger quits part-way through a transformation, the only feedback given is a problem tag. This is good, but when using multiple included stylesheets it is very time-consuming to locate this tag. This is because at the moment validation across multiple stylesheets is not supported and...

1. Switch to XSLT debugger perspective. 2. open an xml file via the navigator view. 3. right click on that file in the navigator view and select rename. 4. type in a new name. 5. The debugger panel still shows the old filename, and when run is selected, nothing happens. No error message is shown eit...

These are two features that although useful, sometimes get in the way. I think that it would be ideal to have a separate tab for diagram view, much as XMLSpy and now the native eclipse schema editor do. That way, if you prefer to edit the schema source directly, you don't have to continually resize ...

It sounds like I may have a similar problem. I have found that I cannot open an XSLT editor using oxygen 8.2 and eclipse 3.3, in either linux or windows. I get an SWT error, and the error log contains the attached exception. If I open the same file using an XML editor I have no problems. !ENTRY org....

Hi, There are some significant inconsistencies in behaviour between the eclipse version of Oxygen 8.1 and the standalone version. While this is not serious, it would be good for things to be consistent. Specifically, when double-clicking on an attribute value, oxygen in eclipse selects the entire at...

Hi Sorin,

Great! Thanks. I look forward to the new version.

Regards,
Joe.

Thank you for letting us know how to reproduce this. No problem. I only just figured out what is going on. logged the issue on our JIRA and we will try to fix this. Have you ever considered opening your JIRA up to users to provide a more formal bug tracking mechanism? I think that compared with thi...

If I use this XML <root> <anotherElement> <element attribute="true"/> </anotherElement> </root> and this stylesheet <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0"> <xsl:output method="text"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <...
