Link to external file content

Post by plumblei »

Hi.

We have a number of source code files, and we want to insert their code to DITA topics. Is it possible to do so like it's done with images - to put a link to a source code file, and if its content changes it also changes in a topic?

Hi,

In a DITA <codeblock> you can add a <coderef> element.
More about this in the DITA 1.2 specs:
