How to properly run SQL extensions thru Saxon in Oxygen

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
Severity: fatal
Problem ID: SXSQ0003
Description: Failed to load JDBC driver org.sqlite.JDBC
Start location: 30:106
URL: http://www.saxonica.com/html/documentation/javadoc/net/sf/saxon/trans/SaxonErrorCode.html#SXSQ0003

This is my XSL:

This is the SaxonEE config file in our project:

    <global allowMultiThreading="false" 
        timing="true"

        compileWithTracing="false" 
        lineNumbering="true" 
        traceExternalFunctions="true"

        allowSyntaxExtensions="true"/>
    <xslt>
        <extensionElement namespace="http://saxon.sf.net/sql" factory="net.sf.saxon.option.sql.SQLElementFactory"/>
    </xslt>
</configuration>

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.

Solution

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.
