Oxygen XML Editor 10.1
February 25, 2009
XML Schema Diagram
The XML Schema diagram offers a nice and compact representation of the schemas
and allows intuitive schema authoring with drag-and-drop and in-place editing.
Documentation for XML Schema
Oxygen provides a flexible, carefully designed and fast XML Schema
documentation tool.
Author Mode
Generate Compiled HTML Help from DITA
Oxygen XML Editor detects the installed Microsoft HTML Help Workshop and
uses it to automatically generate the Compiled HTML Help output from DITA
maps.
Resolve Links Through XML Catalogs
The references presented as links in Author mode such as the
DocBook elements link and xref or the XHTML
a element are resolved through the XML catalogs registered in the
Oxygen preferences.
[API] Execute XPath from an Author Extension
The API for developing custom Author actions was enhanced with two functions
for executing XPath expressions on the edited document.
[API] Author Extensions Can Receive Document Change Notifications
The API for developing Author extensions provides support to receive
notifications when the XML document is changed.
Outline
XSLT Outline View
The Outline view for XSLT displays the stylesheet components (templates, functions, variables, parameters, attribute-sets, character-maps) from the currently edited file and from the included and imported stylesheets. The components defined in a stylesheet different from the current one are grayed-out.
Filter Components in Outline View
You can easily focus on a subset of components using the Outline view filtering
feature. Simply type a text fragment in the filter box and only the components matching it
will be presented. For advanced filtering, you can use wildcards (*, ?) and separate
multiple patterns with commas.
Content Completion Assistant
Content Completion Assistant Offers the List of Components from Included/Imported XSLT Stylesheets
The Content Completion Assistant offers XSLT variables, templates, functions and modes not only from the current stylesheet but also from the included or imported ones.
XSLT and XQuery
Advanced XSLT and XQuery Transformation Options
The advanced options of Saxon SA and Saxon B are available at the
transformation scenario level. Options such as validation of the source XML file, handling
of recoverable errors, whitespace stripping and the initial XSLT mode or template can be
customized for each scenario.
The Default Validation Engine is Taken from the Associated Transformation Scenario
If a transformation scenario is associated with the edited XSLT file, XQuery
file or SQL file the default validation processor is the processor set in the
transformation scenario. For example, if you run an XQuery against an eXist database that
XQuery will be validated by Oxygen with eXist and not with Saxon, the default XQuery
engine.
