Contribute External DITA-OT Distribution Plugin Extension

This type of plugin allows you to contribute an external DITA-OT distribution to Oxygen XML Developer.

Oxygen XML Developer comes bundled with DITA-OT version 4.1.2. If you want to use a different DITA-OT version, the AdditionalDITAOT plugin extension provides the ability to contribute an external distribution of the DITA Open Toolkit to Oxygen XML Developer.

Example

For instance, if you wanted to use a DITA-OT version 1.8, your plugin.xml file might look like this:
<plugin
 id="dita-ot-18"
 name="Contribute DITA-OT 1.8"
 description="Contributes DITA-OT 1.8"
 version="1.0"
 vendor="Syncro Soft"
 class="ro.sync.exml.plugin.Plugin">
 <extension type="AdditionalDITAOT" path="DITA-OT1.8.5" description="DITA-OT 1.8"/>
</plugin>

The @path attribute points to a folder located relative to the plugin.xml file and this folder is where the additional distribution of DITA-OT would be located.

When Oxygen XML Developer is started with this plugin enabled, that addition DITA-OT version can now be selected in the DITA Open Toolkit option in the DITA preferences page.
