Scheduled transforms?

Here should go questions about transforming XML with XSLT and FOP.

Scheduled transforms?

Post by alyxandr »

I need to automatically run a transform on a nightly basis, using an uncrippled version of Saxon. (My xsl makes heavy use of java.lang.Math)

1) Can I do that in oXygen?
2a) If not, can I do it from a shell script that calls oXygen's Saxon library?
2b) Is that even allowed by my license?

Worst case I use Saxon 9.1.0.8, but purposely using that old of a version makes me itch, a bit.

TIA, --alex.

Hi Alex,

1. Unfortunately, this is currently(v13.2) not possible. The transformation scenario can be run only manually from the Oxygen GUI. We have already logged this feature request in our issue tracking tool. I've added your vote for it.

2. I'm afraid that the Saxon-EE bundled with Oxygen is only licensed to be used from within the Oxygen GUI. If you want to use it from the command line, you need a separate Saxon-EE license from Saxonica.
