Oxygen XML Developer scans the following locations when looking for XML Refactoring
operations to provide flexibility:
- A refactoring folder, created inside a directory that is associated
to a framework you are customizing.
- Any folder. In this case, you need to open the
Preferences dialog box, go to , and specify the same folder in the Load additional refactoring
operations from text box.
Note: If you
share a project with your team, you can also share the custom operation by saving them
in a folder that is part of your project. Then switch the
XML
Refactoring option page at project level (
open the
Preferences dialog box, go to
, and select
Project Options at the bottom
of the dialog box), and in the
Load additional refactoring operations
from text box, use the
${pd} editor variable so that the
folder path is declared relative to the project.
- A folder specified by the XML Refactoring Operations Plugin
Extension.
- The refactoring folder from the Oxygen XML Developer installation
directory ([OXYGEN INSTALLATION DIRECTORY]/refactoring/).
Sharing Custom
Refactoring Operations
The purpose of Oxygen XML Developer scanning multiple locations for the XML Refactoring
operations is to provide more flexibility for developers who want to share the refactoring
operations with the other team members. Depending on your particular use case, you can
attach the custom
refactoring operations to other resources, such as frameworks or projects.
After storing custom
operations, you can share them with other users by sharing the resources.
