[oXygen-user] Using cref, oxygen, and transforms

Mon Jun 15 13:15:41 CDT 2009

I have two files, one with a topic and one with definitions:
* TOPIC*
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE topic PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Topic//EN" "Topic.dtd">
<topic id="CREF_TOPIC">
    <title>Topic with crossref</title>
        <body>
        <p>The best thing since sliced bread is <ph
conref="cfs.dita#cfs/mpm"/>.</p>
    </body>
</topic>

*DEFINITIONS*
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE topic PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Composite//EN" "Topic.dtd">
<topic id="cfs">
    <title>Cross References</title>
    <body>
        <p>
            <ph id="mpm">My Payment Method</ph>
        </p>
        <p>
            <ph id="stx">SuperTransactions</ph>
        </p>
    </body>
</topic>

If I set this up & view in Oxygen 10.2, the first tile (TOPIC) displays the
cref values just fine.

When I run any of the default transforms in Oxygen (to PDF, HTML, etc.), the
cref value is blank. I'm not getting an error in the transform - says it
transformed fine. But cref isn't working.

Clues on how to debug this? The cref is a major component of my
documentation plans - I want to have pre-defined values that I can use in
documentation so I don't need to update product names, release dates, and so
on, inside the final documents.
