Usually it is sufficient to change parser configuration using
appropriate property. If your XML parser is Xerces then it is sufficient
to use the following property:

-Dorg.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration=org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeParserConfiguration

So for example in order to get XIncludes resolved before validation in
onvdl you have to use the following command:

java
-Dorg.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration=org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeParserConfiguration
-jar /path/to/oNVDL/bin/onvdl.jar /path/to/docbook.nvdl document.xml
