bib module fails to produce publication list under certain conditions

bib module fails to produce publication list under certain conditions

[Jesse Alama]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 448 bytes --]

I recently came across an unusual error with the bib module: depending
on the section structure of a document, the publication list is
sometimes not produced.  I've attached a simple document and a one-entry
bib file that illustrates the error.  If either the second section of
the subsection is commented out, the publication list is produced; if
both are uncommented, the publication list is not produced.  What might
be going on?

Thanks,

Jesse

This is a known limitation introduced by the transparant per-section
publication support (it is now clear I should not have done that,
but is too late to fix now).  Normally being explicit like

   \placepublicationlist[criterium=all]

fixes the problem.

Best wishes,
Taco

That solved the problem -- thanks.  (Using

  \completepublicationlist[criterium=all] ,

which is what I actually need, also works.)

Thanks,

Jesse

PS It be `criterion' rather than `criterium'.  According to my
dictionary, the latter means "a one-day bicycle race on a circuit road
course".

Clearly it should read

  "It is `criterion' rather than `criterium'."

rather than

  "It be `criterion' rather than `criterium'."

(I one-up'd Taco by making a grammatical rather than lexicographic
error.  Failure to proofread messages before sending them will be the
death of me yet.)

This is a language mixup in the context core that I doubt can be
fixed any more (the dutch word for criterion is actually criterium,
and all ConTeXt commands started out in dutch)

Best wishes,
Taco
