Example: Single <ditavalref> as a child of <map>

In this scenario, a <ditavalref> element is a direct child of the <map> element, which is equivalent to setting global filtering conditions for the map.

Example

The following map is equivalent to processing all the contents of the map with the conditions in the novice.ditaval document. If additional conditions are provided externally (for example, as a parameter to the publishing process), those conditions take precedence.

<map>
  <title>Sample map</title>
  <ditavalref href="novice.ditaval"/>
  <!-- lots of content -->
</map>
