XProc 3 as a copy of XProc framework but with RNC file from XProc 3 spec

Using oXygen 22, I would like to find a way to write/edit XProc 3.0 scripts, using the schema provided at
https://spec.xproc.org/master/head/xproc/xproc30.rnc.
I tried to make a copy of the exisiting XProc document type association, named it XProc 3 and in the schema section linked to a local copy of the above schema.
Additionally, I edited the association rules and put in version="3.0" for Attribute.
Should that suffice to get oXygen to provide validation and content completion based on the XProc 3 schema when I edit a document with .xpl suffix and use version="3.0" on the root element?
Unfortunately I find no change to my XProc editing, I only get XProc 1 content completion and validation.

Hello Martin,
Thank you for the feedback.
Unfortunately (
https://spec.xproc.org/), there is no XProc 3.0 engine ready yet, so we do not have support for the 3.0 version.
The schema used for content completion and for validation are hardcoded for 1.0
We plan to add this feature in 22.1 version of Oxygen.
Regards,
Mircea

Yes, I understand there is no XProc 3 engine yet, but as a beta version III of MorgaxXProc has been announced for the end of this month I wanted to see whether I can learn to at least write and edit some XProc 3 code with the help of oXygen and the schema I linked to.
If the schema for XProc 1 is hardcoded, I guess I won't be able to use a copy or extension of the XProc document framework in oXygen 22.
Nevertheless, should it be possible to write XProc 3 documents as normal XML documents referencing the schema with <?xml-model?>?
I have also tried that but it seems I run into some errors from Jing:

Would such errors prevent any content completion from working?

Hello,
In order for the schema to be validated you need to go in the
Options/Preferences/XML/XML Parser/RELAX NG and disable the
Check ID/IDREF option.
Then create a new XML file, and associate the XProc 3.0 schema.
The file should be like:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-model href="xproc30.rnc" type="application/relax-ng-compact-syntax"?>
<p:declare-step xmlns:p="http://www.w3.org/ns/xproc" xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/ns/xproc-step" version="3.0">
</p:declare-step>
The
xml-model should point to the location where your schema is located.

Thanks, Mircea , after disabling the ID/IDREF check I can use the schema with the <?xml-model?> directive.
