One standard way of including XML is external parsed entities. See
http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/#sec-external-ent.

If you've done that then there is actually no other coding that you need
to do. Simply continue to reference the main XML that includes other
XML; the parser is responsible for locating and parsing the includes.
