Contextual Project Operations Using 'Main Files' Support

Oxygen XML Author Eclipse plugin allows you to define Main Files at project level. These main files are automatically used by Oxygen XML Author Eclipse plugin to determine the context for operations such as validation, transformation, content completion, refactoring, or searches for XML modules. Oxygen XML Author Eclipse plugin maintains the hierarchy of the main files, helping you to determine the editing context.

Oxygen XML Author Eclipse plugin also provides unique support for using the Main Files support in DITA projects. In DITA, when you rename or move non-DITA resources, it allows you to update all the references to these resources in the scope of the Main Files (in this case the main DITA map (root map)). For more information, see Main Files Support in DITA.
