Subject: Ampersand followed by semicolon in XML: possible bug?
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2015 17:58:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1752624.8RSupgTVVG@max> (raw)
Hello list,
I've found what it looks like a bug in XML handling in ConTeXt. Try this:
\startbuffer[test]
<text>
<!-- with following semicolon: ampersand and semicolon are eaten -->
<p>Me & my friends; you & your friends.</p>
<!-- without following semicolon: everything ok -->
<p>Me & my friends. You & your friends.</p>
<!-- way around: place a comment after the ampersand -->
<p>Me &<!-- --> my friends; you & your friends.</p>
</text>
\stopbuffer
\startxmlsetups xml:somesetups
\xmlsetsetup{#1}{text}{xml:text}
\xmlsetsetup{#1}{p}{xml:p}
\stopxmlsetups
\xmlregistersetup{xml:somesetups}
\startxmlsetups xml:text
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxmlsetups
\startxmlsetups xml:p
\xmlflush{#1}\par\blank[line]
\stopxmlsetups
\starttext
\xmlprocessbuffer{main}{test}{}
\stoptext
In the first case, the ampersand and the following semicolon are eaten up.
I've found a way around, until the bug is fixed (if it's a bug and not my
limited knowledge of ConTeXt): put a XML comment after the ampersand,
and everything works as expected.
