[oXygen-user] Go to or search a particular line from command prompt

[Oxygen XML Editor Support (Radu Coravu)]

Hi Andreas,

We added in the latest version of Oxygen (Oxygen 17.0) support to open a 
file at a certain line and/or column:

> http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/#topics/opening-document-from-cli.html

There would be other two possibilities (besides using our Java API from 
a plugin):

1) Integrate the external tool as an external validator, an external 
validator can return messages with a particular format which will be 
displayed by Oxygen as a list of links:

> http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/#topics/linked-output-messages-of-external-engine.html

2) The external tool could produce an HTML document with a table of 
links like:

> <a href="samples/personal.xml#line=4"/>

You could save that HTML document somewhere, open it in Oxygen in the 
Author editing mode and click links in order to open the file in Oxygen 
at that specific line. So you would no longer need to call the Oxygen 
main executable with a parameter.

Regards,
Radu
