Copy paste strips xml:id

When I copy/paste from one file to other in Author view it strips the xml:id. How do I modify that behavior?

I found the code responsible for this. I want to override it but still keep some of the behaviour. Basically, if I am copying from the same file I want ids to be stripped but if I copy from other file then I want to keep IDs. I got something working but its not quite what I want.
Code: Select all
@Override
public ClipboardFragmentProcessor getClipboardFragmentProcessor() {
final ClipboardFragmentProcessor originalImplementation = super.getClipboardFragmentProcessor();
return new Docbook5UniqueAttributesRecognizer()
{
/**
* @see ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.content.ClipboardFragmentProcessor#process(ro.sync.ecss.extensions.api.content.ClipboardFragmentInformation)
*/
@Override
public void process(ClipboardFragmentInformation fragmentInformation) {
if(!fragmentInformation.getFragment().isEmpty() &&
fragmentInformation.getFragment().getContentNodes().size() > 0 &&
fragmentInformation.getFragment().getContentNodes().get(0).getName() == "table") {
// do not strip ids for tables
}
else
originalImplementation.process(fragmentInformation);
}
};
}

Hi Mike,
You are on the right path.
Maybe you can look at the Java code (which is available in the SDK) for the:
ro/sync/ecss/extensions/commons/id/DefaultUniqueAttributesRecognizer.java
and see how the method:
public void process(ClipboardFragmentInformation fragmentInformation)
is implemented.
The code which decides the IDs will be stripped in the target file is this:
Code: Select all
.................
if(fragmentInformation.getFragmentOriginalLocation() != null
&& ! fragmentInformation.getFragmentOriginalLocation().equals(authorAccess.getEditorAccess().getEditorLocation().toString())) {
//Paste from another document. Remove the IDs
removeUniqueIDs = true;
}
................

Radu

Thanks. Yes I saw that code. What I don't know is how do I change the condition
Code: Select all
fragmentInformation.getFragmentOriginalLocation().equals(authorAccess.getEditorAccess().getEditorLocation().toString())
in such a way so it returns true when copying from the same file and false when copying from another file opened in the same Editor.

Hi Mike,
The
fragmentInformation.getFragmentOriginalLocation() represents the URL from where the fragment was cut/copied or dragged.
And
authorAccess.getEditorAccess().getEditorLocation() represents the URL of the current editor in which the fragment is pasted or dropped.
So just reverse the condition like:
Code: Select all
.................
if(fragmentInformation.getFragmentOriginalLocation() != null
&& ! fragmentInformation.getFragmentOriginalLocation().equals(authorAccess.getEditorAccess().getEditorLocation().toString())) {
//Paste from another document. Do not remove the IDs
removeUniqueIDs = false;
}
................
Actually we've discussed and in the next version we'll also change the default implementation bundled with Oxygen not to remove IDs when pasting to other files.
Regards,
Radu

Thank you very much. That was easier than I expected.
