In my application I have a main xml file (general.xml) which includes several xml files (file1.xml, file2.xml…) using the xi:include tag. I successfully imported general.xml in basex using the gui: the xi:include directives were successfully processed, merging all data in a single database. I noticed in the result window that the database keeps track of the origin of the data, adding an xml:base info for each included block.

I then performed some find and replace operation on the database, modifying some values which were originally belonging to different files. Now I want to export data to file.

I successfully obtained a single xml file using the export command of the gui. The generated file still preserves the xml:base infos. However, I’d like to recreate the original structure, i.e. obtain multiple files, the same which were merged by xi:include directives at the beginning of the import process. I cannot find such an option in the export tab. Is it possible?

Thank you for the help,
MR
