Re: [docbook-apps] Resolving entity references and xinclude statements

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

There should be no problem mixing entities and XIncludes.  There is a small section in my book on mixing entities and XInclude:

Is there some particular problem you are finding?

Subject: [docbook-apps] Resolving entity references and xinclude statements

Hello,

 

I am sure that this is a very simple question; perhaps, if I have a few more cups of coffee, I�ll discover the answer. J Nonetheless:

 

I have several xml files that use DocBook. These files contain both xinclude statements and custom entity references. I�d like to transform these files into DocBook files that have these xincludes and entities resolved. In other words, I�d like to take:

 

<para>This is a sample &custom;.</para>

<xinclude � >

 

And turn it into:

 

<para>This is a sample function.</para>

<para>This para was created with an xinclude statement.</para>

 

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

 

Regards,

Dave Shevitz
