Hi Uwe,

Thank you very much for the information.
I have one additional question.

First of all I want to explain you what I am exactly trying to do .
I am trying to create a custom rule that returns the instmode value.
And depending on it I want to create result files with suffixes
_$instmode ( for example partitioning_hd.xml ).
And I also want to have default one file ( for example partitioning.xml ) .
Do you have any idea how I can put that in the rules.xml file.
I thought about something like putting the partitioning.xml file in the
unconditioned and after that adding the rule that looks like the one you
proposed me with partitioning_@custom1@.xml . But I am not sure what
happens if the result file doesn't exist. If nothing happens this will
resolve my problem because the default file will be overwritten during
the merge with the customized one but only if it exists.
So my question is what is going on when the result file doesn't exist.

Regards,
Pavlin
