I have a number of P.Mapper (4.0.beta1) applications that have nearly identical search.xml files. Each has a few <searchitem> definitions particular to the application as well as some <searchitem> definitions common to all the applications. Rather than continue duplicating the those things in common for each individual search.xml file, I was hoping to include the common entries with an ENTITY reference.
Here is an example of the search.xml file I am trying to create: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE document [ <!ENTITY commonsearch SYSTEM "/home/nsg/pmapper/ pmapper-4.0.beta1/config/common/search.xml"> ]> <searchlist version="1.0"> <searchitem name="township_range" description="PLS: Township/Range/ SEction"> <layer type="postgis" name="sections"> <field type="n" name="town" description="Township" size="3" wildcard="1" /> <field type="n" name="rang" description="Range" size="2" wildcard="1" /> <field type="n" name="sect" description="Section" size="2" wildcard="1" /> </layer> </searchitem> &commonsearch; </searchlist> And here is an excerpt from the referenced file: <searchitem name="county" description="County"> <layer type="postgis" name="counties"> <field type="s" name="cty_name" description="County Name" wildcard="2"> <definition type="options" connectiontype="db" sort="asc" firstoption="-"> <dsn encoding="LATIN1">pgsql://guest1:f33d...@localhost/minnesota</ dsn> <sql>SELECT DISTINCT cty_name,cty_name FROM boundary.jurisdiction_county_area ORDER by cty_name</sql> </definition> </field> </layer> </searchitem> None of the entries from the referenced file get included. Has anyone else tried doing something similar, or is this ability not supported?
