[oXygen-user] xinclude error for docbook block

[George Cristian Bina]

Dear Bram,

The error should be obtained when you validate the info.xml file and not 
the manual.xml file, right? At least this is the behavior I can reproduce.

This is an interesting case. The problem is that the DocBook grammar 
does not specify info as one of the allowed start elements and thus the 
error. There are two solutions, both possible with oXygen:

- use a modified DocBook schema that allows info as root
- validate the info.xml file in the context it is used from

In the first case you can include the DocBook schema and then add a 
choice start pattern like below:

<grammar xmlns="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0">
     <include href="docbookxi.rng"/>
     <start combine="choice">
         <ref name="db.info"/>
     </start>
</grammar>

In the second case you just need to define a validation scenario and add 
an entry to validate manual.xml with the default engine. Thus, intsead 
of validating info.xml directly oXygen will validate starting from 
manual.xml and info.xml will be validated in the context it is used.

Best Regards,
George
