Organizing the Framework Files

First, create a new folder called sdf (for "Simple Documentation Framework") in [OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR]/frameworks. This folder will be used to store all files related to the documentation framework. The following folder structure will be created:

oxygen
  frameworks
     sdf
       schema
       css

The frameworks directory is the container where all the Oxygen XML Author framework customizations are located. Each subdirectory contains files related to a specific type of XML documents (schemas, catalogs, stylesheets, CSS stylesheets, etc.) Distributing a framework means delivering a framework directory.

It is assumed that you have the right to create files and folders inside the Oxygen XML Author installation directory. If you do not have this right, you will have to install another copy of the program in a folder you have access to, the home directory for instance, or your desktop.

To test your framework distribution, copy it in the frameworks directory of the newly installed application and start Oxygen XML Author by running the provided start-up script files.

You should copy the created schema files abs.xsd and sdf.xsd, sdf.xsd being the master schema, to the schema directory and the CSS file sdf.css to the css directory.
