Hi,

I had a few questions about xml and it's processing with xerces-c.

The situation is that there are 2 xml documents, say A and B.  A contains some 
information X while B contains meta information
Y about X.  This gives rise to a situation where in X some sort of reference to it's 
meta information needs to be captured.
A simple solution would be an element in X would have an attribute of type IDREF which 
can contains the ID of an element in Y.

Given the above scenario the questions I have are, 

1> Which document on the internet best describes how to handle this scenario in xml?  
2> Does this require xinclude/xlink/xpointer?  If so, does xerces-c support xinclude?  
3> Also, can DTDs capture such inter-document specifications or should xml schemas be 
used?
3> Does SAX2 implementation of xerces-c handle such situation?

I am sorry that some questions are orthgonal to xerces-c, but the answers to these 
questions directly impact the use of
xerces-c, or how the data is to be structured. Hence, I have posted these questions 
here.

waiting for reply,
