Icecast Streaming Media Server

[eger]

I found an old forum post (http://icecast.imux.net/viewtopic.php?t=324) which asked a question about including external XML files for cleaner configs with lots of mounts.

I tried doing the following per XML standards:

Added to top of icecast.xml:
<!DOCTYPE icecast

<!ENTITY dance SYSTEM "/etc/icecast/dance.xml">
]>

Then inside the <icecast> near bottom added:
&dance;

I then reloaded icecast using -HUP. But the changes do not get picked up. It does work if I include the dance.xml contents in the icecast.xml itself.

I am wondering if this is supported and if anyone has successfully implemented include files in their setup? If so, do you have an example?

Thanks!

not sure if anyone has tried it. It could be related to the api used, instead of (in cfgfile.c)

doc = xmlParseFile(filename);

try

doc = xmlReadFile (filename, NULL, 0);

The third arg is a bitwise or | of the options in http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-parser.html#xmlParserOption

yes it would be weird which is why I said cfgfile.c which is in the src directory.
