bib module problem with mkiv

Hi all,

I was trying the following bib example on MkIV beta 2009.11.20 and
luatex beta-0.44.0-2009103007.
There isn't an apparent error message, but neither the bib reference or the
publication list appears in the pdf.

Observations:
1. In MkII, it works well.
2. In MkIV, if you use the [criterium=all] option, both bib ref and pub list
show properly. Other criterium, e.g. [criterium=section] doesn't work.

thanks a lot.

regards,
shenchen

Hi all,

I tried digging mailing list and the source file. I am afraid that the
bibl-tra module has a few problems:

==============
\usemodule[bibl-tra]
\setupbibtex[database=xampl]
\starttext

\section{aaa}
\cite[a]
\placepublications

\section{bbb}
\cite[b]
\placepublications

\stoptext
===============

1. Documentation says that without a criterium option, only bibl cited in
local section is included in the list, but actually all cited bibl are
listed.

2. In MkII, the solutioin to problem 1 is to use [criterium=section] in
\placepublications, but this does not work in MkIV.

3. \placepublications only works once in the document, the second time you
call this macro, it outputs nothing.

I wonder if there is a chance to see this fixed in the forthcoming beta.
Otherwise, I will need to revert to some (very) old version, as I need
per-chapter reference lists. Thanks a lot~

regards,
shenchen
