xliffRoundTrip Tool

Title: Message

Hello,

 

Tony asked my to 
resend part of the note I initially sent to him regarding the improvements in 
the xliffRoundTrip Tool, and its new residence at sourceforge.net.  I just 
stuck the two XSL's out there, along with a rushed readme.  There's lots of 
room for improvement in the documentation and the code.  I want to be sure 
to position this tool as generic starting point for doctypes that the TC has not 
yet published a profile for.

 

Any comments, 
critiques or suggestions will be happily welcomed by me.

 

Here's a snip from 
the note

Hi 
Tony,

 

I have two things to 
report to you about the generic XLIFF XML parser I showed you and the TC last 
month.

 

1. Based on your 
suggestion, I opened a sourceforge project for it, and will soon place the 
source code there.  It will be a nice place for people to download the 
tool.  And it will be good for people to get feedback, suggestions, bug 
reports, etc. to me.  It now consists just of the two XSL files, but I 
think it would be good for me to code up a Java application so the user can just 
pick a source and target from a little GUI. ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/xliffroundtrip/ 
 )

 

2. I made some VERY 
GOOD improvements to the tool based on a conversation Yves and I had regarding 
the proper way to map elements based on their content, hierarchy, whether they 
are mixed content, PCDATA, or inline.  We had the conversation in the 
context of the HTML profile, but the results were applicable to XML elements in 
general.
