Hi,

Is there a way to deliver the value of a variable in MetaFun to ConTeXt.
For example, I want to do the following:

\starttext
\startMPcode
numeric maxCount;
% … some code
maxCount := 10;
\stopMPcode

dorecurse{maxCount}
{It is \recurselevel.\par}

\stoptext

Thank you for reading.

Best regards,

Dalyoung

\newcount\MyCount

\starttext

     numeric maxCount;
     maxCount := 10;
     setglobalmacro("MyMacro",decimal maxCount);
     setglobalcount("MyCount",maxCount);

Dear Hans,

Your code works fine.

I applied your method to my code as following. 

\newcount\udCount  %%% add count
\startMPinitializations%{UDBasic}
  pair A,B,C,D;
  pair E, F, G, H;
  path p,q;
  numeric ang,maxNum;

  numeric n; %AM Added

  u:=1in;
  A=(.95*TextWidth,u); B=(0,u); C=(0,0); D=(.95*TextWidth,0);
  p := A--B--C--D;
  q := (TextWidth,1.5u)--(0,1.5u)--(0,-.5u)--(TextWidth,-.5u)--cycle;
  z0=(.1u,0);
  
   vardef nextPt (expr M,N) = 
   if ypart(N) = 0: 
       H := whatever[N, N + dir(.5*angle(M-N))*u] = whatever[A,B];
   else:
       H := whatever[N, N + dir(.5*angle(M-N))*u] = whatever[C,D];
   fi;
   H
   enddef;

   def grayUD(expr i) =
      draw G -- if ypart(B)=ypart(G): B -- C else: C -- B fi --z[i];
      filldraw z[i]+2*(G-z[i])*u -- z[i] -- z[i+1] -- z[i+1]+(G-z[i])*u -- cycle withcolor .75white; 
      draw G -- z[i+1] dashed evenly;
      draw z[0] for k=0 upto i: --z[k] endfor dashed evenly;
      clip currentpicture to q;
   enddef;

   def linesUD(expr i) =
      draw p;
      draw z0 for k=0 upto i+1: --z[k] endfor dashed evenly;

      % AM: removed. Set in in the main code
      % setbounds currentpicture to boundingbox q;
   enddef;

   ang := 40;
   z[1] = whatever[z[0], z[0]+dir(ang)*u] = whatever[A,B];

   % AM: Changed next line from G to z[-1]
   z[-1] = whatever[z[0], z[0]+dir(2*ang)*u] = whatever[A,B];
   for k = 2 upto 20:
      z[k] = nextPt(z[k-2],z[k-1]);
      maxNum := k;
      exitif xpart(z[k]) > TextWidth;
   endfor;
   maxNum := maxNum-1;
   setglobalmacro("udMacro",decimal maxNum);  %%% define udMacro and udCount
   setglobalcount("udCount",maxNum);

\stopMPinitializations

\startuseMPgraphic{foldUD}{num}
   numeric n;
   n := \MPvar{num}-1;
   G := z[n-1];
   grayUD(n);
\stopuseMPgraphic
\startuseMPgraphic{dotLines}{num}
   numeric n;
   n := \MPvar{num}-1;
   linesUD(n);
\stopuseMPgraphic

\setupinteraction[state=start]
\usemodule[animation]
\starttext
%\startanimation[menu=yes]
%{
\dorecurse{\udCount}
 {\useMPgraphic{foldUD}{num=\recurselevel}}
 {\useMPgraphic{dotLines}{num=\recurselevel}}
%}
%\stopanimation
\stoptext

1. Using “udCount” doesn’t issue error message, but it draws the path p only.
2. Using “udMacro” issue the error message.

Is there anything that I miss?

Best regards,

Dalyoung

You need to call the setglobalmacro(...) macro. The code inside \startMPinitializations is only executed when you call any MP environment. But you are using \udCount before \useMPgraphic. A simple solution is to run dummy MP code so that MP initializations are run:

    \starttext
    \setbox\scratchbox\hbox{\startMPcode draw unitcircle; \stopMPcode}
    \dorecurse{\udCount}
     {\useMPgraphic{foldUD}{num=\recurselevel}}
     {\useMPgraphic{dotLines}{num=\recurselevel}}
    \stoptext

A run with no sideeffects in the content stream is:

\startMPcalculation
  ....
\stopMPcalculation

Dear Aditya and Hans,

Thank you for your suggestion.
I add 

> \startMPcalculation
>  ....
> \stopMPcalculation

and it works.

\setupinteraction[state=start]
\usemodule[animation]
\starttext
%\startanimation[menu=yes]
%{
\startMPcalculation
 path p;
\stopMPcalculation
\dorecurse{\udCount}
 {\useMPgraphic{foldUD}{num=\recurselevel}}
 {\useMPgraphic{dotLines}{num=\recurselevel}}
%}
%\stopanimation
\stoptext

However, it draws all the figures under the \startanimation case.

There may be something I missed or there is something uncertain between \dorecurse and \startanimation.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Dalyoung
