Oxygen XML Author plugin 13.2.0

Author for DITA | 123Figure 74: Advanced settings tabYou have several parameters that you can specify here:• Custom build file - If you use a custom DITA-OT build file you can specify the path to the customized build file.If empty, the build.xml file from the dita.dir directory configured in the Parameters tab is used.• Build target - You can specify a build target to the build file. By default no target is necessary and the default inittarget is used.• Additional arguments - You can specify additional command-line arguments to be passed to the ANT transformationlike -verbose.• Ant Home - You can specify a custom ANT installation to run the DITA Map transformation. By default it is theANT installation bundled with Oxygen XML Author plugin .• Java Home - You can specify a custom Java Virtual Machine to run the ANT transformation. By default it is theJava Virtual Machine used by Oxygen XML Author plugin .• JVM Arguments - This parameter allows you to set specific parameters to the Java Virtual Machine used by ANT.By default it is set to -Xmx256m which means the transformation process is allowed to use 256 megabytes of memory.Sometimes, when performing a large DITA map transformation you may want to increase the memory allocated tothe Java Virtual Machine from the default value (256 MB) to a higher value, like 512 MB. In this way, you can avoidthe Out of Memory error messages (OutOfMemoryError) received from the ANT process.Note: If you are publishing DITA to PDF and still experience problems, you should also increase the amountof memory allocated to the FO transformer. To do this, open the Parameters tab and increase the value ofmaxJavaMemory parameter (default value is 500).• Libraries - Oxygen XML Author plugin adds by default as high priority libraries which are nottransformation-dependent and also patches for certain DITA Open Toolkit bugs. You can specify all the additionallibraries (jar files or additional class paths) which are used by the ANT transformer. You can also decide to controlall libraries added to the classpath.
