I think the include is in the wrong
location? Shouldnât it be more like this:
Â
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-model href=""
type="application/xml"
schematypens="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"?>
<assembly xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude">
 <resources>
  <resource xml:id="local-file" fileref="some/path/file.xml"/>
  <resource><xi:include href="stock-blocks.xml"
xpointer="standard.disclaimers" parse="xml">
   <xi:fallback>
    <para><emphasis role="strong">Boilerplate
got lost!</emphasis></para>
   </xi:fallback>
  </xi:include></resource>
 </resources>
 <structure>
  <info>
   <title>My Test Assembly</title>
   <author>
    <personname>Some Poor Volunteer</personname>

   </author>
  </info>
  <module resourceref="standard.disclaimers"/>
 </structure>
 <xi:include href="./resource-block.xml"/>
</assembly>

Hi Larry,
I loaded the assemblyxi.rng into
Oxygen XML for testing. I opened your test file that you
included in the zip file "assembly-with-xinclude.xml" and I
see that it XIncludes a file containing a <resources>
element.ÂÂ But when I try to add a structure element after the
<xi:include> element, it won't let me. I think a common
scenario would be to XInclude a common resources file and then
create a structure using those resources.ÂÂ
I am able to add a structure element
after the literal resources element in the test file and
before the xi:include, but not after the xi:include. I don't
see what in the schema prevents that.
