1. Structure of a configuration file customizing an existing configuration

Important

If you create a configuration file with a text editor, do not forget to check its validity before deploying it because, for performance reasons, XXE does not thoroughly validates its configuration files at start-up time. The simplest way to do that is to open the configuration file in XXE.

Excerpt of the sample customization, mydocbook.xxe, of the stock DocBook configuration:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ISO-8859-1'?>
<configuration name="DocBook"
  xmlns="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/configuration"
  xmlns:cfg="http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/schema/configuration">

  <include location="xxe-config:docbook/docbook.xxe"/>
