Summary Re: [gentoo-user] XML editor
Many thanks for the answers. Unfortunately, nothing really fit my needs, so programming it'll have to be ... In summary, the editors are helpful in visualizing doc structure and oXygen has the most features, while for docbook the specialized apps may be better. Amaya is no longer in gentoo (I recall it the editor of choice for MathML). After oXygen, I'd have liked xxe best, as it doesn't draw a rat tail of KDE, GNOME or wxWidgets dependencies but that's only because I have java handy. ralf -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

I know that you're looking for a free XML editor, and I'm not sure how full-featured an editor you need. But for the record and those googl'ing for XML editors, I can say that I've tried most of the open source xml editors out there. I need a full-featured XML editor, one with an xslt debugger, css WYSIWYG presentation of xml documents, handles schema/relaxng, everything you can think of. And the one that is multi-platform (written in Java) that fits those needs *and* is affordable is : http://www.oxygenxml.com/. A personal or academic license is only $48 and even a business license isn't outrageous (~$300). If you are doing serious xml development (and not simply document markup), then this is one that I have found to be a practical solution. Kirk -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

From what I can see, it allows you to build an xml file using a natural tree structure, or view the raw text, as you prefer. It's not in that large list as far as I can see.

Re: [gentoo-user] XML Editor
My favorite one is Komodo, but you cannot speak about an XML editor anymore: it's more likely a XML IDE :-) It's shareware, but only cost about $20 -and damn, it's woth them!

For a WYSIWYG-based XML editor, check out Vex. http://vex.sourceforge.net/ It lets you define a custom DTD and CSS for an XML file. One nice thing about Vex is that it doesn't make you type XML tags manually. The program presents a list of valid elements based on the DTD, then you just pick which you want. This also cuts down on potential errors. Matt -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] XML Editor
I've been looking for something along these lines, myself, although I'm also looking for one that does WYSIWYG based on arbitrary XSLTs. Anyway, I've looked around and found a few things. Jaxe looks like a promising possibility, over at http://jaxe.sourceforge.net/. It can validate based on a schema, as you need. It is a Java-written project, so it will run on your linux boxes, or anything else, of course. There is a very large list of editors at http://www.xml.com/pub/pt/3 you can look through, as well.

[gentoo-user] XML Editor
I have a few bespoke XML schema specs, and I want to find a generic tool to construct XML files which are syntactically valid with respect to the schema specs. The schemas represent data-structures for domain specific records with moderately complex structure. It would not make sense to use a WYSIWYG editor as the XML tags don't correspond to textual mark-up... I don't want to use a text-editor as it would be time-consuming to manually type the tag and attribute names... as well as being more error prone and less productive to batch validate.
