I want to use nested includes in a BIML Script (an include in an include), but the second level isn't working. It seems to skip it without giving an error.

Solution
First be careful with (too many) nested includes! It could make your BIML script obscure. There are two tricks to solve this problem. They came to me via twitter from @cathrinew and @AndreKamman.
Solution A:
Use a full path in the include tag instead of only the name:
 |
| Using the fullpath |
Big downside is of course the full path in your BIML Script. In a multi-user environment with for example TFS that could be an issue because everybody needs the same project path.
Solution B:
A better option is to use CallBimlScript instead of include:
 |
| Using CallBimlScript |
And you could also pass parameters to the included file and use relative path and then reuse the file in multiple projects.
