Creating and Editing an XML Catalog

The IDE provides a template for creating new OASIS XML Catalog files. It is highly recommended that you use this format instead of depricated formats such as XCatalog v0.2 and XMLCatalog v0.4.

To create a new OASIS XML Catalog:

  1. Choose File and chose New from the main window.
  2. Expand the XML and DTD node and select OASIS XML Catalog. Click Next to proceed.
  3. Select a location for the file and click Finish. You can edit catalog files as you would any other XML document.
tip You can use the Runtime tab of the Explorer to view any currently mounted XML catalog in read-only form. If you want to edit an existing catalog, you must first mount it as a filesystem in the IDE.

To view a catalog entry in read-only form:

  1. Click the Runtime Tab.
  2. Expand the XML Entity Catalogs node and the node for the desired catalog.
  3. Right-click the catalog entry node (icon) and choose View.

    If the mapping is valid, the entity is displayed in read-only mode.
