Hi,

How do you call ctx files from within a main ctx file ?

Thanks,
Alan

<ctx:include name='whatever.ctx"/>

should work

In my first attempt to cook something up, something seems to be missing
and/or wrong because no output is generated. If all is put into one *.ctx
file it works.

texmfstart texexec --lua --ctx=ctx-main ctx-test

*** ctx-test.tex ***

\starttext

\doifmode{mode1a}
    {mode1a}

\doifmode{mode2a}
    {\blank mode2a}

\stoptext

*** ctx-main.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:job>
    <ctx:preprocess>
            <ctx:include name='ctx-flags.ctx'/>
            <ctx:include name='ctx-modes1.ctx'/>
    </ctx:preprocess>
     <ctx:flags/>
     <ctx:process/>
     <ctx:postprocess/>
</ctx:job>

*** ctx-flags.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:job>
     <ctx:preprocess/>
    <ctx:flags>
        <ctx:flag>texengine=luatex</ctx:flag>
        <ctx:flag>interface=en</ctx:flag>
        <ctx:flag>result=ctx-modes</ctx:flag>
    </ctx:flags>
     <ctx:process/>
     <ctx:postprocess/>
</ctx:job>

*** ctx-modes1.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:job>
     <ctx:preprocess/>
     <ctx:flags/>
    <ctx:process>
        <ctx:resources>
            <ctx:mode>mode1a</ctx:mode>
        </ctx:resources>
    </ctx:process>
     <ctx:postprocess/>
</ctx:job>

*** ctx-modes2.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:job>
     <ctx:preprocess/>
     <ctx:flags/>
    <ctx:process>
        <ctx:resources>
            <ctx:mode>mode2a</ctx:mode>
        </ctx:resources>
    </ctx:process>
    <ctx:postprocess/>
</ctx:job>

*** end of code ***

Alan

After giving it some further thought, I tried the following (which seems
more logical) but that doesn't work either...

*** ctx-test.tex ***

\starttext

\doifmode{mode1a}
    {mode1a}

\doifmode{mode2a}
    {\blank mode2a}

\stoptext

*** ctx-main.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:job>
     <ctx:preprocess/>
    <ctx:flags>
            <ctx:include name='ctx-flags.ctx'/>
    </ctx:flags>
    <ctx:process>
        <ctx:resources>
            <ctx:include name='ctx-modes1.ctx'/>
        </ctx:resources>
    </ctx:process>
     <ctx:postprocess/>
</ctx:job>

*** ctx-flags.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:flag>texengine=luatex</ctx:flag>
<ctx:flag>interface=en</ctx:flag>
<ctx:flag>result=ctx-modes</ctx:flag>

*** ctx-modes1.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:mode>mode1a</ctx:mode>

*** ctx-modes2.ctx ***

<?xml version='1.0' standalone='yes'?>

<ctx:mode>mode2a</ctx:mode>

*** end of code ***

A Google search for the XML include element didn't bring much wisdom either.
What's missing/wrong please ?

Hi Hans,

You wrote "<ctx:include name='whatever.ctx"/> should work"

Given the above example, I'd really like to learn how to make it work.  :O)

texmfstart texexec --ctx=ctx-main ctx-test

Best,
Alan

P.S. Happy Birthdaybeforeyesterday.

Should I conclude, by the lack of response, that this feature doesn't work ?

Ok Hans. I understand. If there's any way you could have a look into it
sometime (not too) later, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

An additional cool and handy feature would be something like:

<ctx:if(not)(else) mode=abc>
   <ctx:include name='somemodes.ctx'/>
<ctx:else(if) mode=def>
   <ctx:include name='someothermodes.ctx'/>
<ctx:else(if) mode=ghi>
   ...
</ctx:if(not)(else)>

What tool do you use to validate ctx files ?
