What is new in <oXygen/> XML Editor 10.1

February 25, 2009

There are changes in:

XML Schema Diagram

The new 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.

  [read more...]

In-place Editing   [read more...]

You can edit XML Schema components features directly in the diagram, for instance the component name, its type, etc. Valid proposals are offered in the contextual menu allowing you to easily insert new components in the current context.

Drag and Drop Editing   [read more...]

You can design your schema in the new XML Schema diagram by using drag-and-drop to move, copy or make references.

Attributes View   [read more...]

The Attributes View provides an easy way to edit attributes for all XML Schema components. You can choose valid values from a list or you can specify your own values. If an attribute has an invalid value it will be highlighted in the table so you can easily spot the error and fix it.

Facets View   [read more...]

Using the Facets View you can easily check the existing facets of the current simple type (including the default facets), edit values or add patterns and enumerations. If a facet has an invalid value it will be highlighted in the table.

Visual Error Markers   [read more...]

When an editing action introduces an error the XML Schema validator signals it by painting in the diagram the border of the component containing the error with red.

Documentation for XML Schema

<oXygen/> provides a flexible, carefully designed and fast XML Schema Documentation tool.

Multiple Output Formats   [read more...]

It is possible to generate XML Schema documentation in various formats including HTML, PDF and DocBook.

For large XML Schemas a "generate chunks" option is available for the HTML format that will output documentation in multiple files. The documentation includes diagrams representing the models for the XML elements, attributes, types, etc.

Support for Imported and Included XML Schemas   [read more...]

The generated documentation includes all the components defined in the imported or included schemas.

Best Look and Performance   [read more...]

The documentation output is carefully designed with a balanced selection of colors and a neat layout.

<oXygen/> XML Editor delivers the best available performance for generating XML schema documentation. Even for the largest XML schemas (thousands of components), <oXygen/> generates the complete documentation within a couple of minutes.

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 now 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

Filter components in Outline view

You can easily focus on a subset of components using the new Outline view filtering feature. Just type a text fragment in the filter box and only the components matching that will be presented. For advanced usage you can use wildcards (*, ?) and separate multiple patterns with commas.

XML Schema Outline View   [read more...]

The Outline view for XML Schema presents the XML schema components from the current schema and from the included and imported schemas. All the global components can be sorted by name and grouped by type, location and namespace.

XSLT Outline View   [read more...]

The Outline view for XSLT presents 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 the other than currently edited stylesheet are grayed-out.

Components can be sorted by name and grouped by type, location and mode.

XQuery Outline view   [read more...]

The outliner presents the list of all components (namespace declarations, variables and functions) from the imported modules together with the components declared in the current file. Components can be sorted by name and grouped by type, location and namespace.

Content completion

Content completion offers the list of components from included/imported XML schemas   [read more...]

XML Schema editing is made easier as you can insert references to components from other XML Schema files assisted by the content completion assistant. <oXygen/> automatically detects the modified included/imported schemas and adjusts the content completion list of proposals.

Content completion offers the list of components from included/imported XSLT stylesheets   [read more...]

The content completion offers XSLT variables, templates, functions and modes not only from the current stylesheet but also from the included or imported ones.

Content completion offers the list of components from imported XQuery modules   [read more...]

The content completion offers variables and functions not only from the edited file but also from the imported XQuery modules.

Content completion offers XQuery functions, including XML databases extensions   [read more...]

For all the supported XML database engines (eXist, MarkLogic, Tiger Logic, Oracle, SQL Server, Documentum xDb (X-Hive/DB), etc..), the content completion displays both the XQuery standard functions and the extension functions available for that engine.

XSLT and XQuery

Advanced XSLT and XQuery transformation options

The advanced options of Saxon SA and Saxon B are available now at the transformation scenario level. Options like 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.

Databases

Support for PostgreSQL 8.3 database

The PostgreSQL 8.3 database is supported in the Database perspective of <oXygen/> XML Editor. The tables of a PostgreSQL 8.3 database can be browsed, opened and updated.

Updated TigerLogic database support for version 3.1

Version 3.1 of the TigerLogic XML database is now supported in <oXygen/>.

Updated eXist database support for version 1.3

Along with the support for the 1.2 version of eXist <oXygen/> supports now also version 1.3 of the eXist XML database.

Components and frameworks

Updated Saxon SA to version 9.1.0.5

The Saxon SA XSLT and XQuery processor was updated to the latest version 9.1.0.5.

Updated the TEI framework

The TEI framework was updated to version 1.3.0. The TEI XSL stylesheets were updated to version 5.15.

Updated DocBook Stylesheets

The DocBook stylesheets were updated to version 1.74.3. The syntax highlighting of source code included in DocBook documents is enabled by default for the built in transformations to PDF and HTML.
