Re: [docbook] inserting general entities

[Roger Meier <roger@bufferoverflow.ch>]

here is an example document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN"
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd";>
<book lang="de">
   <bookinfo>
 <xi:include href="../author.xml"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";></xi:include>
  <title>User Guide</title>
  </bookinfo>
  <xi:include href="example.xml"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";></xi:include>
  <xi:include href="debian.xml"
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";></xi:include>
</book>

every included File needs also a DTD

example.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE chapter PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN"
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd";>
<chapter id="example" lang="de">
<title>Beispiel</title>
    <para><ulink type="text/html" url="example/">Beispiel</ulink></para>
</chapter>

i use it with xsltproc on debian:
xsltproc --xinclude --stringparam base.dir html/ stylesheet.xsl
docbookfile.xml
i don't know how to use xincludes with saxon
