Dear Tara, The XInclude namespace is wrong, it should be: http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude If I remember correctly, there were some changes from ..2001.. to ..2003.. and then back to ..2001.. - but the final form is http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude Best Regards, George -- George Cristian Bina <oXygen/> XML Editor, Schema Editor and XSLT Editor/Debugger http://www.oxygenxml.com On 5/22/14, 6:25 PM, Tara Athan wrote:

Dear George,

Here is a small version.

There is an instance document that has the xi:include element.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <?xml-model href="../../xcl2_short.rnc" type="application/relax-ng-compact-syntax"?> <Construct xmlns="http://example.org" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude"> <xi:include href="includes/1.xml" parse="xml"/> <Atom><Name>Q</Name><Name>b</Name></Atom> </Construct>

and here is the includes/1.xml file to be included (showing an error)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Construct xmlns="http://examples.org"> <Atom><Name>P</Name><Name>a</Name></Atom> </Construct>

Here is a short version of the schema xcl2_short.rnc

default namespace = "http://example.org" namespace xi = "http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude"

start = clText

## Texts clText = Construct | Import

## -Text Constructions Construct = element Construct { Construct.type } Construct.type = (clText|clSentence)*

## -Imports Import = element Import { Import.type } Import.type = Name

## Sentences clSentence = Atom

## -Atomic Formulas Atom = element Atom { Atom.type } Atom.type = clTerm, clTermSequence

## Term Sequences clTermSequence = (clTerm)*

## Terms clTerm = Name

## -Names Name = element Name { Name.type } Name.type = text

# XInclude Import |= element xi:include { attribute href { xsd:anyURI } }

I have tried it with and without the pattern for the xi:include element in the schema.

If the xi:include pattern is in the RNC schema, then the instance validates, and does not pick up errors in the included file. If the xi:include pattern is not in the RNC schema, then the instance does not validate, even when the included file does not have an error.

Thanks, Tara

Dear Tara,

It is not very clear if you try to use XInclude in a Relax NG schema or in an instance document that uses a Relax N G schema that allows xi:include elements. Can you please provide a small cut down sample, that will help a lot.

I am using Version 14.2.

I have a Relax NG schema that allows xi:include elements. But the validator does not appear to process the xi:include element prior to validation, as it does not pick up errors arising from the included file.

I have checked Enable XInclude processing in the XML Parser settings.

Is there anything else to do, or is this just not available (in my version)?
