Hi Paul,

We will provide support for this in the next release.
The next release will be called 2.0.3 beta and will be out this week so that in August we will have a full 2.0.3 release for both desktop and eclipse versions.

Best Regards,
George

Hi Pierre,

There is no way currently to view special characters. We will provide support for this in the next version.

Hi, We managed to get the plugin working on Linux - tested with Eclipse 2.1 on Mandrake 9. There was some AWT interference that was factored out. A new eclipse plugin release will be out at the end of this week, probably it will be called 2.0.3 beta so that the 2.0.3 that will be in August will cont...

Hi, Update: there is support for line wrapping in Eclipse. We added support in oxygen to use it and the next release will feature soft wrapping. There are some problems when soft wrapping is used together with line numbers as the line numbers will count a wrapped line as a new line. Best Regards, Ge...

Hi, One way to make it use Java 1.4 is to get the installation kit which includes a Java VM. Another way is to edit the oxygen.lax file, look for lax.nl.current.vm and edit its value to point to the 1.4 java executable. And the third possibility is to use the batch file to start oXygen (oxygen.bat) ...

Hi Sandrine, Please note that the view you are refering to is for XHTML. When you put method="html" the XSLT processor (Xalan) will generate a meta element without a closing tag which makes the result not well formed, thus the XHTML view fails to render it. You can configure the transforma...

Hi,

From what I know wheel mouse is supported by Java since Java 1.4 therefore if you use Oxygen with Java 1.4 you will have the wheel mouse working.

Hi, Oxygen should work with relative DTDs. Please let me know: the Oxygen version you are running the full path to the dtd the full path to the xml file Now trying to guess... It may be that you create a file with new and do not save this file. In this case we assing as system ID for the not yet sav...

Hi Thomas,

That is a bug, I will add an entry in bugzilla also for improving the DTD highlighting support.

Thank you,
George

Hi, If you have a DTD and you want to create a document based on that you can follow the steps below: Go to File and select New Select XML Document and click Ok Click on the DTD tab Enter http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/simple/1.0/sdocbook.dtd in the SystemID input field Press enter - the root...

Hi, It is not possible to have soft line wrapping for the Eclipse version. As far as I know there is not line wrapping support in the Eclipse TextEditor and implementing it is not a simple task. More, this is not a feature at XML support level but rather at framework level. The framework from the oX...

Hi, The tree based editor supports XML documents. It has no special support for XML schema, XSL or RelaxNG schema. When you open a schema document and start a validation it tries to validate it as an ordinary XML document and complains about missing declaration for the root element. Currently an wor...

Hi, The tree based editor is not implemented in the Eclipse plugin version. The Eclipse plugin does not support currently all the functionality available in the oXygen standalone version, we are working to increase the coverage of the supported features. Anyway, the oXygen license allows you to use ...

Hi,

Please use a font that knows how to render the characters you enter.
To select the font go to Options->Preferences->Editor->Font.

Hi, Have a look at the "Configure Transformation" dialog. On the "Output" tab you have an option "Open in browser" that becames enabled once you specify a file for the transformation result. If you select that option the transformation result file will be opened with yo...

Dear Chris, Oxygen uses the latest Xerces J (2.4.0) for validating schemas. It is true that other validators can say that your schema is valid and Xerces reports errors on it but in the majority of the cases I saw Xerces was right. The error codes you see immediatelly after the error level are the c...

What do you mean when you say you 'ran a conversion'? With Trang you can convert from DTD or RelaxNG schemas (compact or XML syntax) or a set ox XML files to DTD, RelaxNG schemas (compact or XML syntax) or W3C XML Schema. Running a conversion in this context means converting a DTD to W3C XML Schema...

Hi Simon, Oxygen supports editing of WSDL documents, only that you should specify the schema for each namespace you use. It offer validation and code insight across namespaces, for instance inside a wsdl:types element you will see also elements from xml schema namespace. You can easily create a new ...

Dear Dave, Thanks for pointing out this issue. Currently if you specify a DTD the validation will be tried agaist that DTD only, disregarding the schema. We will add an option in the next release that will allow you to validate against the specified schema even if a DTD is also specified. Thus you w...

Hi Pete, We are using the latest version of Xerces to perform validation, that is Xerces J 2.4.0. The problem with your document is that you specify both a DTD and an XML Schema and the parser choose to validate against the DTD. DTDs are not namespace aware so the xmlns, xmlns:xsi and xsi:schemaLoca...

Hi,

Thanks, this is indeed an important clarification, please see my reply on

All the best,

The problem may have to do with a conflict between SWT and AWT. We are using a couple of AWT classes java.awt.Color is one of them and on Mac OS X this may cause a deadlock. There is a message on news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.platform.swt with subject bug when calling java.awt.Color on MacOSX that...

I read recently a news thread on news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.platform.swt (subject: bug when calling java.awt.Color on MacOSX) that shows that these situations can appear if the AWT is used together with SWT. Now there are a couple of points where we use some AWT classes as we reused most of the...

Thanks Olaf, We know about this and we discussed some possible solutions. The solution we will implement is to add problem markers in the file that causes the error if that resource can be found in the workspace, otherwise we will add a problem marker on the first line of the current file and put th...

Hi, We are using in fact these swing classes, they are not visual components. The idea was to reuse easily the same code that works in the standalone version. You can try to get the Swing 1.1.1 from http://java.sun.com/products/archive/jfc/1.1.1/index.html and put the swingall.jar in the plugin lib ...

Thanks Warren, We already fixed this problem in the current development. We fixed it also on the 2.0.2 branch; you can get an updated oxygen.jar that includes this fix from http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/oxygen2.0.2.fix.jar . Please rename it as oxygen.jar and replace the one from your installation...

Hi, The outline view is a nice feature and we will consider adding it, but first we have to integrate existing oXygen features in order to minimise the differences between the standalone version and the eclipse plugin version. Since 2.0.2 beta3 we have added new wizards (new XML from schema, new XML...

Hi,

Please look in the workspace/.metadata/.log file. There should be a trace of the error there, please reply with that. Also if you make the PDE Runtime/Error Log view visible it is possible to see an entry there with more details about the problem.

Thank you,
George

More updates... We compiled oXygen with 1.3 and tried it with Eclipse 2.1 on Mac OS X buit got the following error: !SESSION Jun 10, 2003 09:58:46.235 --------------------------------------------- java.version=1.3.1 java.vendor=Apple Computer, Inc. BootLoader constants: OS=macosx, ARCH=ppc, WS=carbo...

Hi, This error appears when Eclipse is run with Java 1.3 because oXygen is compiled with Java 1.4. If you look at the http://www.oxygenxml.com/download.html#eclipseBeta you will see that there is a note there: You must run Eclipse 2.1 using with Java virtual machine 1.4 or later. You can try running...
