I am trying to test usage of the sql extensions of Saxon EE thru Oxygen. I am getting an error that the driver failed to load:
Engine name: Saxon-EE 11.4

I tried to copy the latest SQLite driver jar (sqlite-jdbc-3.42.0.0.jar) to the Oxygen lib folder and it complained. I them moved it to the lib/connectors folder. It has not complained about it being located there but also still fails. I am not sure where to locate the jar in order for Saxon to load the JDBC.
Any help is much appreciated.
The documentation https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/25.1/ug-editor/topics/application-reports-errors-on-startup.html suggests, to allow you to add e.g. sqlite-jdbc-3.42.0.0.jar
to Oxygen XML's lib folder and to not have it complain, you can put the file in the folder and edit the file libraries.list
in there to add e.g. ;sqlite-jdbc-3.42.0.0.jar
at the end of the list. I have tested that oXygen then runs Saxon EE 11 successfully doing an sqlite connection with the sql extension elements. Note that while I put the jar in the lib folder and edited the libaries.list
I had oXygen closed and then restarted it for the changes to take effect.
Nevertheless, wait for the oXygen support to tell what they consider the easiest/straight-forward way to have Saxon pick up the sqlite jdbc driver for an XSLT scenario.
