Topic Comparison Configuration File Schema Guide

This guide provides a short description of each element and attribute defined in the XML schema for the DITA Compare REST topic configuration file. A fuller description of the configuration file, along with the examples and an explanation of the main concepts can be found in the User Guide and associated documentation.

An occurrence indicator is used here for cases other than where a child element may occur once and only once. The occurrent indicators are descibed below:

[*] - Zero or more
[?] - Zero or once
[+] - One or more
