Packaging XML applications w/ MSM

One of the types of CMS objects MSM is capable of packaging is keywords. Keywords can come from any number of sources, including XML applications. Can one package an XML application with MSM? Does it get grabbed along with the content type? I am assuming so since this is a dependency, but I don’t find any mention of XML apps specifically in the MSM manual.

Thanks,
Duane

Duane,

If an XML application is part of a dependency, as in your Keyword example, the XML application will be picked up automatically.

Custom packages can also be build that include XML applications stand-alone, but we recommend that only experienced users develop such packages.

XML applications are mentioned in both the MSM manual and the online Help, in the topic “Package Types and Their Dependencies”; in the manual, see p. 13. They are mentioned simply as “applications”. (I have clarified the text in our source for future releases, though.)
