Subject: Urgent index problem
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2005 17:20:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <42482EE6.301@capdm.com> (raw)
I am one night from a deadline and I have just noticed that my index is
silently ignoring some entries... Help!!
The following demonstrates the problem (tested on live.contextgarden.net):
--
\starttext
\startregister[index]{this term+in+particular} This term is discussed
from the start of this page.\page[yes]
Some more text about the term, and another page.\page[yes]
And the end of the info about that term. \stopregister[index]{this
term+in+particular}\page[yes]
A page unrelated to that term.\page[yes]
\index{this term+in+particular} And then another page on exactly the
same term.\page[yes]
\placeindex\page[yes]
Disaster! The entry on page 5 has been eaten!
\stoptext
--
So we have the same terms referenced as a span over pages 1 to 3, and as
a single entry on page 5. But only the span appears, not the second
entry! The .tuo file contains:
\registerentry{index}{t}
\registerentrya{index}{this term}
\registerentryb{index}{in}
\registerentryc{index}{particular}
\registerfrom{index}{,}{1}{2::0:0:0:0:0:0:0::1}{1}
\registerpage{index}{,}{3}{2::0:0:0:0:0:0:0::5}{5}
\registerto{index}{,}{2}{2::0:0:0:0:0:0:0::3}{3}
so it looks like the sorting of these by page numbers has broken, and
ConTeXt thinks that page 5 is between pages 1 and 3.
I hope someone can help...
Duncan
