Support for xi:include
----------------------

                 Key: DBF-10
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DBF-10
             Project: DocBook Framework
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 1.0
            Reporter: S.W.


I have the following use-case: I created a software-guide with docbook and in 
the appendix I need to include a long license text. I have the license text in 
another docbook-file. It's possible that the license text needs to be 
referenced in several documents. As I don't want to copy & paste the license 
text in the main document, I tried to include it by using the xi:include 
mechanism. At the end of the docbook (but before the </book> tag of course), I 
inserted the following line:

<xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"; href="license.xml" />

After including the license text with xi:include, I started the ant-build to 
create html and pdf-documents. But the content of the included docbook-file 
isn't included in the html-output and the pdf-file wasn't created at all.

The message on the console at the pdf-target is:
[java] xi:include encountered in book, but no template matches.

And at the html-target:
[java] No template matches xi:include in book.

I suggest that DBF should support xi:include, because in my opinion it's an 
important feature for creating modular documents.

Kind regards
Steve
