When the file is compiled the info from the .xml is stored in the '''TOC''' (at offset 0x40, colored in red in the example below). It starts with the main element '''qrc''' and his only children '''file-table''' that has his own 5 childrens '''file''' (all them are elements). Every '''file''' element has 2 attributes '''src''' and '''id'''.
When the file is compiled the info from the .xml is stored in the '''TOC''' (at offset 0x40, colored in red in the example below). It starts with the main element '''qrc''' and his only children '''file-table''' that has his own 5 childrens '''file''' (all them are elements). Every '''file''' element has 2 attributes '''src''' and '''id'''.


The attribute '''src''' stores the information needed to locate the file, either in PC (before compiled) or locally inside the CXML container (after compiled). In the .xml example above the value of '''src''' are PC paths (used by the compiler to locate the file inside the PC), but when compiled the value is lost, the file is stored inside the container '''Files table''' (at offset 0x250, colored in orange in the example below), and is indexed in the container '''TOC''' by using an entry with data type 6 composed of '''file offset''' + '''file size''' (used by PS3 firmware to locate the file inside the container '''Files table''')
