Extended Subject Scheme Maps

[Nadine K]

Hi there
I am quite new to Oxygen and looking into a problem now for quite a while.
Help would be appreciated

So, I have a project with a "common" subject scheme map and an "extended" subject scheme map. For each dita map I will in the end use a seperated "extension" scheme, and all will have the same common subject scheme.

my Problem: The values in the extension (e.g. audience--> SAMPLES" do not appear in the ditamap (and inherited topics), but the values of the common scheme map do appear. So there seems to be a problem with the keyref i guess?

I work with oxygen 17 and dita 1.2

here is part of my common scheme (commonscheme.ditamap):

Code: Select all

<subjectScheme>

    <subjectHead>

        <subjectHeadMeta>

            <navtitle> Cendric Subject Scheme</navtitle>

        </subjectHeadMeta>

    </subjectHead>

    <hasInstance>

        <subjectdef keys="audiencekey">

            <!-- A tree of related values -->

            <subjectdef keys="public_DS"/>

            <subjectdef keys="public_UM"/>

            <subjectdef keys="public_UM_history"/>

        </subjectdef>

And here is my extension (extendedscheme.ditamap)

Code: Select all

<subjectScheme>

    <schemeref href="commonscheme.ditamap"/>

    <!--  <schemeref href="Cendric_Subject_Scheme.ditamap"> </schemeref>-->

    <subjectdef keyref="audiencekey">

        <!-- A tree of related values -->

        <subjectdef keys="RAM"/>

        <subjectdef keys="SAMPLES"/>

    </subjectdef>

</subjectScheme>

I reference in my ditamap to it. (i also tried mapref, does not work as well)

Code: Select all

	<topicref href="Extendedscheme.ditamap" type="subjectScheme" format="ditamap"/>

Thanks for your help in advance

Hi Nadine,

Looking at this example in the DITA 1.3 specification:

https://www.oxygenxml.com/dita/1.3/spec ... nsion.html

I think what you are trying to do is correct. Indeed right now Oxygen does not seem to properly combine the subjectdef keyref with the subject definitions placed inside it. I will add an internal issue on our side to look into this.

Hi Nadine,

We released Oxygen 21.1 which should have a fix for the problem you reported.
