[coldspring-dev] Include tag... written and working on my dev machine.

[Chris Scott]

I like it, that sounds very useful indeed, and changing to the <import> tag to stay with the Spring DTD will be very good. Nice job work! Community frameworks are the greatest!

Jared and I have been discussing this and Spring has an <import> tag that is close to this include so in the interest of staying (nearly) Spring-compatible, we both think the actual implementation should be: <import resource="path/to/file.xml"/> We also noted that Spring only supports a relative path, e.g., includes/myfile.xml or ../other.xml which probably ought to be supported as well (a little tricky when using recursive includes :) as well as the originally intended absolute path and mapped path (which, of course, Spring does *not* support!). --  Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood
