m-bib problem after upgrade

[Marko Schuetz]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: Text/Plain, Size: 229 bytes --]

I have a problem with ConTeXt 2001.11.13 and m-bib 2001.6.25. There
are no publications in the bibliography. This used to work with an
earlier version of ConTeXt.  Attached are files demonstrating the
error.

Please help.

I ran into this as well when trying to test something for Karsten. Hans,
could you have a look at this? It might be a problem with the 'pubs' list, that is the list of publications (perhaps even a bugfix in a newer context that breaks something).

hm, just send me a zip with:

(1) the version of m-bin that you use
(2) a test file + usable bib file
(3) the tuo file and any aux file needed

[i don't have any bibs here]

Hi,

Well, not knowing what the m-bib module is supposed to deliver, it took me 
a while to track down the problem, and surprise, the problem lays in an 
optimized system macro

\long\def\doifnotempty#1%
   {\def\!!stringa{#1}%
    \ifx\!!stringa\empty
      \expandafter\gobbleoneargument
    \else
      \expandafter\firstofoneargument
    \fi}

[if you look info syst-gen.tex you'll see that I forgot a %]

now, since only the math module and the bibliography module use this 
command, if went unnoticed when i did my tests -)

I could track it down because when i displayed onte of the lists a funny , 
was showing up (this is probably the reason why the empty test is needed):

     \xdef\allrefs{\ifx\allrefs\empty\else\allrefs,\fi\@@pbk}%

so, taco, maybe this is a better alternative for building the list ^^^

When this module is stable i will go over it (multilingual, hyperthings) 
because there are some things in there that should go to system modules but 
i happily await tacos signal -)

Thanks a lot for the quick solution to the problem!
