Oxygen XML Developer 14.1

October 19, 2012

Version 14.1 of Oxygen XML Developer allows XML developers to start experimenting with the XML Schema 1.1 standard.

Opening very large XML files is no longer an issue. Support for huge XML files allows editing of multi GB documents.

Oxygen XML Developer updates many components, the embedded SVN client supports Subversion 1.7 and the Eclipse plugin distribution works with Eclipse version 4.2.

XML Schema 1.1 Support

Oxygen improves the XML Schema 1.1 support, extending most of the XML Schema features to include XML Schema 1.1 capabilities. The XML Schema 1.1 support can be enabled from Options / Preferences / XML / XML Parser / XML Schema.

XML Documents Validation and Content Completion Assistance Based on XML Schema 1.1

The validation and Content Completion Assistant is available when editing XML documents against the XML Schema 1.1 schemas.

Resource Hierarchy/Dependencies and Refactoring Actions

The Resource Hierarchy/Dependencies view, Component Dependencies, and the Search and Refactoring actions were updated to support XML Schema 1.1.

Schema Model View

The Model view provides XML Schema 1.1-related information for elements and attributes of the edited document (open content, wildcards, type alternatives, etc.)

Master Files

The Master Files support was updated to handle also XML Schema 1.1 schemas.

XML Schema 1.1 Support Limitations

  • Editing XML Schema 1.1 files in the Schema Design mode does not present XML Schema 1.1 specific components
  • Generating XML Schema Documentation does not handle XML Schema 1.1 specific components
  • The support for generating XML instances based on XML Schema ignores XML Schema 1.1 specific components

SVN Client

Support for SVN 1.7

Extended Support for Exporting Files

The support for exporting files from a repository was also made available in the Repositories and Revision Graph views. In the Repositories view it is now possible to export both directories and individual files.

Full Support for "svn add"

The "svn add" command and all its options are fully supported. The resources not under version control are collected automatically from any directory of a working copy.

Improved Handling of Unversioned and Ignored Directories

Processing content of unversioned or ignored directories can be avoided using options added in the Working Copy view. The SVN Client can be configured to ignore content of such directories, speeding up the loading of a working copy as well as other SVN operations.
