[oXygen-user] Validating merged grammars

[George Cristian Bina]

Hi Paul,

I guess it is a case similar with including XML content using external
entities.
Take for instance the following example:

test.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE test SYSTEM "test.dtd" [
  <!ENTITY test '1234'>
  <!ENTITY incl SYSTEM 'incl.xml'>

]>
<test>
  &test;
  &incl;
</test>

test.dtd:
<!ELEMENT test (#PCDATA|x)*>
<!ELEMENT x (#PCDATA)*>

incl.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<x>&test;</x>

In this case incl.xml is not valid but the test.xml document is valid.

Similarly the correctRelax_0.rng is valid while the included schema is not
valid.

Best Regards,
George
