[oXygen-user] Storing FO processor configuration inside framework

[George Bina]

Dear Jirka,

There are two possibilities to solve this:

1. Use ant based transformation scenarios

As part of your framework define transformation scenarios based on ant 
scripts and those scripts can use the framework provided xep for example 
using a relative reference to its location.

2. Use a plugin that will update the options and will contribute also 
the framework

If you create a plugin then you should be able to modify oXygen's 
options and one of the plugin extension points allows it to contribute a 
framework:
https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/20.0/ug-editor/topics/additional-framework-extension.html
One issue with this approach is that you cannot directly read the 
existing option value through the API, so you can only set the external 
FO processors to some value, which may not be ideal, as users may loose 
existing settings... Of course your plugin may show a dialog explaining 
that they gave the option to set that manually or accept the automatic 
setting which will overwrite the custom FO processors to that provided 
XEP only.

Taking into account this issue I would recommend option 1. If you want 
to explore the second option more, let us know.

Best Regards,
George
