Hello,

I've made a xinclude call like that:

<xs:appinfo>
<Actions>
<xi:include href="testXI.xml" xpointer="A1"/>
</Actions>
</xs:appinfo>

and here is the file where i have my information:

<Noms>
<Nom Init="DF" xml:id="A1" ><LastName>Faveur</LastName><FirstName>David</FirstName></Nom>
<Nom Init="MD"><LastName>Dorne</LastName><FirstName>Manuel</FirstName></Nom>
<Nom Init="PR"><LastName>Rajaud</LastName><FirstName>Patrick</FirstName></Nom>
</Noms>

I don't know how to get the firstname of the element id="A1" via my xpointer ?

Could you help me ?

Thanks

Hello,

oXygen offers XInclude support through Xerces which does not support the entire xpointer() scheme. However you can include only the FirstName subelement that you want using the element() scheme:
Also oXygen adds support for including an XPointer fragment through the xml:id attribute as in your case:
but the element
includes the entire element Nom.

Thanks for your quick answer !

Hi again !

When i generate the result file, i get this

<Text>
Voici les noms des personnes de la société
<Noms xml:base="testXi.xml">
<Nom Init="DF"><LastName>Faveur</LastName><FirstName>David</FirstName></Nom>
<Nom Init="MD"><LastName>Dorne</LastName><FirstName>Manuel</FirstName></Nom>
<Nom Init="PR"><LastName>Rajaud</LastName><FirstName>Patrick</FirstName></Nom>
</Noms>
</Text>

But, this file is not valid with my XSD because of the xml:base="textXi.xml" !
Do you know how to remove residual element like xml:base on my final generated file ?

Thanks

You can avoid generating the xml:base attribute by disabling the Base URI fix-up option in Options -> Preferences -> XML -> XML Parser but generally this is not recommended. Why don't you modify your XSD to allow the xml:base attribute ?

Use the XPointer expression which I specified to obtain only the FirstName element that you want. With the following XInclude element
you get
