<nestedRef> Repository Component Targeter

The <nestedRef> element identifies a nested component reference that is declared or inherited by the current composite component. Only steps in a composite component can use this targeter.

This element can be used as a targeter for the <install> step.

The named component reference is assumed to not be previously installed by the calling component. Otherwise, an error is issued. If a nested referenced component is to be installed on a different host, a <retarget> step must be used. You cannot otherwise specify a new host within the <nestedRef> targeter. You cannot install a nested component reference on more than one host for a given containing component.

Attributes for the <nestedRef> Targeter

The <nestedRef> targeter has one required attribute of type identifier, name, which is the name of a nested component reference that is in this component.
