Subject: Throwing an error on missing image with \externalfigure
Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2012 14:18:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120731121830.GB26275@cryptobitch.de> (raw)

Hi :-)

I'd like ConTeXt to raise an error if it can't find an image when using \externalfigure. I really don't want to check a potentially big document for missing images manually and while I could grep the log myself in an additional post processing step, I really want ConTeXt to do raise the error for me, not a potentially broken script written by me.

I've seen the other thread: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/059485.html but there is no answer there. I also expected a similar behaviour to "\input" which fails on a non existing file.
My thinking was that there is either a switch for "context", i.e. like "-Werror" or a way to set context up from within the document, i.e. by telling it to be in a "final" mode.

So my question is: How can I make ConTeXt raise an error on a non found image?

Cheers,
  Tobi
