Conref creation and usage

For example, consider the following referable-content topic:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE referable-content PUBLIC "-//IXIA//DTD IXIA DITA Composite//EN" "IxiaDitabase.dtd">
<referable-content id="per1389985725819" xml:lang="en-us">
   <title>Configure Kerberos authentication on the client</title>
   <rcbody>      
        <note id="kerberos_prerequisites">To use Kerberos authentication, the 
            client application and TEXTML Server must be running on Windows. Linux is not supported. 
        </note>
   </rcbody>
</referable-content>

For example, to reuse the Kerberos prerequisites paragraph in other topics, you create a conref to this paragraph in the target topic.

<note conref="per1389985725819.xml#per1389985725819/kerberos_prerequisites"/>

To easily find reusable components and insert conrefs to them into other topics, open the Referable-Content view.

The Referable-Content view provides the following information about the reusable components:

• Text Preview: Overview of the text that can be reused
• Element: Element type of the reusable component
• Element ID: ID assigned to the reusable component
• Owner Document: Name of the document that contains the reusable component

This information can assist you in selecting the component to reuse in your document. You can restrict your search using the following criteria:

• Element type: This dropdown list displays all the elements for which a reusable component is defined. You can search inside a specific element type or select All element types to search inside all element types.
• Containing library: This dropdown list displays all the referable-component-library maps found in the Content Store. You can search inside a specific map or select All libraries to search inside all the maps.
