xml:id is not working with <rootid>

[GoogleCodeExporter]

To use the <rootid> in the plugin configuration a have to set the old 
id-attribute. Using xml:id cause an error that says.

[INFO] Failed to transform guide.xml.
Embedded error: Processing terminated by xsl:message at line 328  

On the other hand, I don't want to use the id-attribute because it leads to 
validation errors in the docbook 5 document. 

Additional informations:
I'm using xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" and version="5.0" on the root 
element. The docbkx-maven-plugin in the Version 2.0.13 (same problem with 
2.0.11). And the dependency     

<groupId>net.sf.docbook</groupId>
<artifactId>docbook-xml</artifactId>
<version>5.0-all</version>
<classifier>resources</classifier>
<type>zip</type>
<scope>runtime</scope>

It's the same problem on Windows and Linux.

Hi,

while looking at sources of docbook it seems that id and xml:id are handled the 
same. So it should be safe to specify xml:id in files and use rootid parameter.
I have not yet tried it by myself, can you post your sample?

Hi Mimil,

Sorry, you are absolutly right. I tried a small setting and everything is 
working fine. After I referenced my own styles with <foCustomization> it is not 
working anymore. I think i have to test more. Now I can only say, if i'm using 
the import <xsl:import href="urn:docbkx:stylesheet" /> it's working. If i 
change to <xsl:import href="urn:docbkx:stylesheet/profile-docbook.xsl" /> i got 
the described error message. 
I will try more things and notify you than.

By the way. Thanks for the great job. It makes fun to use the plugin.

Regards,
Nico

Hi Mimil,

can close the defect.

Hi,

okay, while looking at this issue I found a post talking about profile and 
rootid issue on docbook mailing list: 
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/201005/msg00106.html

I have not look at it.

Have fun with the plugin =)
Mimil,
