Nice comment from a happy user about the new @processing-role
attribute. Good work, Su-Laine, in catching that we needed to include such an
attribute!
Best

I usually include DITA topics that
contain elements designed for reuse in my master DITA map, so that the map
serves as a manifest. Depending on whether you are using DITA 1.1 or DITA 1.2,
there is markup that you can add to your map in order to ensure that the “reuse
topic” in not included in the output:
DITA 1.2
<topicref href="”conref.dita”"
processing-role=”resource-only”/>
DITA 1.1
<topicref href="”conref.dita”"
toc=”no” search=”no” print=”no”/>
Thanks Kristen, this is the best solution as it documents
the fact that the resource file actually is used. I have tested it in my setup,
used the DITA 1.2 syntax and it worked fine.
It's also nice to see the development in the DITA standard -
in 1.1 you can sort of deduce from the topicref attributes that this is a
resource file that isn't supposed to be shown to the user, while in 1.2 it is
plainly spelled out that this is a resource file only - nice!
