Hello!
This is not the most appropriate place to ask, but I'd just like to get a hint of the overall feeling of it. Since the XInclude support is relied upon that of Java, is there any hope it will become complete some day? I'd be satisfied with answers like "I'm positive the support will be completed, but it might take some two years" or "the development seems stalled and probably nothing will happen if noone interested in it makes an effort".
Thank you
Kristian

Hi Kristian,
I see the following alternatives (maybe there are more):
* If we continue to rely on Java's Xerces parser, which is the current default parser in BaseX (see e.g. [1]). Obviously, we have no control over the development, and I don't know much about its current status quo. Maybe things improve with Java 9 [2]? Maybe you find some better references on the web?
* We could also embed XInclude/XPointer support in our internal XML parser (which is activated via the
INTPARSE option). In this case, we would have full control, but we would probably only do it as a "sponsored feature" (financially backed by a customer).
Best,
Christian

Hi,
I've found this link talking about the XInclude ID support in Xerces and a patch:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1113
I did not try it.
Hope this helps...
Regards,
Jérôme.
