NEW JSON Schema Editor in Liquid XML 2016

NEW JSON Schema Editor

We are happy to announce Liquid XML 2016 is now available for download including a all new graphical JSON Schema Editor.

The new JSON Schema Editor abstracts away the complexities of JSON Schema structure by providing an intuitive graphical drag and drop user interface.

Graphical JSON Schema Editor

The Graphical JSON Schema Designer included in Liquid XML Studio massively simplifies visualizing, authoring and navigating complex JSON Schemas. The Graphical JSON Schema Editor provides an interactive logical view of the JSON Schema enabling simple and intuitive editing and validation of the JSON Schema, without compromising the ability to work with all the complexities of the Internet Engineering Task Force draft 4.0 JSON Schema Standard.

Comprehensive JSON Schema Validation

Support for the IETF draft 4.0 Standard

The JSON Schema Editor supports the IETF draft 4.0 Standard. The schema items are displayed graphically and can be edited and validated.

Errors and warnings are reported via the Error Window in real time, clicking on an error selects the source of the error in the Source and Logical (graphical) view.

 

Validate JSON Schema against the IETF draft 4.0 Standard

Issue Installing on Windows 10 - External exception 80000003

Happy New Year

At least it was until some of our customers pointed out that our installer had stopped working with Windows 10!

On investigation, it appears a Microsoft update on 28th December caused some 3rd party software issues including stopping the Liquid XML installer from running an internal Flash video, and worse causing an exception and crash:

 

Runtime Error in Setup Script. External exception 80000003.

After been made aware of this, we have issued an updated installer (v13.2.3) to resolve this issue.

Further information can be found in our knowledge base:

Thanks to those who reported this issue. Please remember, we always welcome your feedback, good or bad.
