inline inside inline inside DCT

I know I can test this and find out, I am wondering if I can count on it being supported in future releases.

If I have a DCT that contains an inline tag, and that inline call returns substitution xml containing another inline tag, will templating execute the command in the inline tag that is in the substitution block?

The reason is, we don't want to maintain DCTs in the workareas, we want to maintain them in a central location. The solution that comes to mind is to use inlines, but there could be a better solution.

Ive been told that it doest work John.

The first inline directive just blindly dumps in the XML and it does not get parsed for any other inline directives.

however you can be tricky if you like and build your own wheel. Put the functionality in your inline script.

I guess I could use iwdctacleval maybe.

I read the help that the command outputs. Didnt really make much sense to me though

johny is correct.

in order to implement this functionality one of my client's subcontractors have developed a set of scripts that mimic nested inlines
