Oxygen XML Forum

Hi,
I am working with a large Ant build file in eclipse, which uses normal XML include notation to bring in project specific configuration from a separate file. Because the included file is not 'well formed', oXygen reports it as faulty (an indication which propagates to the top level of my eclipse project), and provides little additional support.

I suspect this is the exact situation that projects described in the 'Working with Large Documents' paper is dealing with. But I can't find any support for this in eclipse. Can anyone confirm that 'oXygen projects' are the way this is supposed to be handled, and that it is NOT currently supported in the eclipse plugin (is it planned?). Is there another way (apart from merging all the files)?

Thanks, Ross.

Hi Ross,

In order not to get these errors you can either remove the well formedness check when documents are saved (Windows->Preferences--oXygen->Check wellformedness on save) or you can use the "Clear validation markers" from the oXygen toolbar or XML menu.

There should not be signifiant differences between the standalone version and the Eclipse plugin version with respect to using entities to include external content in an XML document.

Best Regards,
George
