* xml-resolver is not used at all to process something like <xi:include href="" xpointer="myid"/> * As of v4, XMLmind XML Editor uses Xerces 2.9 as its XML parser. However we implement our own DTD/XSD/RNG validator and our own XInclude processor. * Your problem comes from the XInclude implementation of Xerces which does not seem to support valid XIncludes such as: <xi:include href="" xpointer="myid"/> or: <xi:include xpointer="myid"/> This kind of interchange problems are documented here: "Creating modular documents which are highly interchangeable with other applications" http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/user/tutorial_modular_document.html#interchangeable_modular_documents * We, XMLmind, are XEP customers too, but rather than using xep or xep.bat, we use convertdoc or convertdoc.bat. Convertdoc is a command-line utility allowing to execute XMLmind XML Editor's process commands. See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/commands/convertdoc.html * See also xmltool which may be used to create a flat copy of a modular document. http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/xmltool/index.html
