Including sub-books into the set-tag

[Rock Lobster]

Hello,

I found the "set" tag which can be used to merge separate books into one big book, but in the example, they just wrote three sub-books inside the set-area, which is not what I'm looking for. Instead, I'd need something to reference an external file, so that I have a "set"-file and my separate book files, while the set-file only contains the path and filenames.

Is there any way to achieve this?

Nice greetings
Rock Lobster

Have you tried Xinclude?

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

            <xi:fallback>
                <para> The required content cannot be found. </para>
            </xi:fallback>
        </xi:include>

Using Xalan or xmllint you can include the xml file in your parent.

Thanks for your answer!

Well I tried it, but now I get some weird (and not very verbose :) error: "The process 'FOP' endid with code : 2 The error was : [ERROR] null"
