Figure 1. Genero Studio XML Catalog file

The catalog element is the root of an XML Catalog. The xmlns attribute assigns a name to the catalog file.

Additional Elements in this file are:

  1. public - resolves a Public ID for an external DTD; specifies Public external DTDs intended for broad use (public distribution of a DTD file for a wider audience).
  2. system - resolves a relative system id for an external DTD; used to find the public DTD if it cannot be located by the public ID.
  3. system - resolves a web-based system id for an external DTD.
  4. uri - used to locate XSL and other files. It can be used for everything that is not a declared PUBLIC or SYSTEM identifier for a DTD or system entity file.
  5. nextCatalog - resolves entries related to Additional Catalogs.
