| oXygen XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT/XQuery Debugger 8.0 Syncro Soft has announced the immediate availability of version 8.0 of its XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT/XQuery Debugger. Version 8.0 of the oXygen XML Editor adds as main features a spreadsheet-like XML Grid Editor, management support for major XML and relational databases, options and transformation scenarios that can be stored into the project file and support for NVDL (Namespace-based Validation Dispatching Language) scripts. New features: - The new oXygen's grid editor allows you to edit repetitive XML content in a special layout similar to a spreadsheet application, without the need to interact with the markup. Using the new Database perspective you can browse tables or collections from databases, execute XQuery or SQL queries, inspect or modify data, specify XML Schemas for the XML fields and collections. The database support includes many of the popular servers, operating either as native XML storage: Tamino, XHive, MarkLogic, TigerLogic, eXist, Berkeley or mixed, as relational and XML at the same time: DB2, SQLServer, Oracle. The transformation scenarios can now be stored in the project file. This simplifies the scenario management by attaching only the relevant scenarios to a project. Furthermore, you can pass over to your teammates a set of pre-configured project scenarios. - You can save the current editor layout (what views and toolbars are visible and their position) and reuse it later, or even share it with your team by taking advantage of the new support for saving/loading the editor layouts. - You can edit NVDL scripts using the new NVDL Editor. oXygen distributes an NVDL implementation allowing the validation of XML documents against NVDL scripts. The support includes validation on demand, continuous validation, validation with external schema, batch validation from the project, etc. The content completion is now able to use NVDL Scripts to offer proposals; this makes possible editing documents with complex structure, that contain multiple languages defined by different schemata, for instance XHTML with embedded XForms. - You can specify almost all of the oXygen settings at project level. This makes possible to pass along with the project XML Catalogs settings, transformation scenarios, formatting options, validation options, editor layout, etc. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
