Hello,
why this code:
----
\def\GG{\ifmmode G_G\else$\GG$\fi}
\starttext
\GG $\GG$ % OK
\startitemize[][]
\sym{\GG} \GG % OK
\stopitemize
\startluacode
context.startitemize()
context.sym([[\GG]])
context("Abc")
context.stopitemize()
\stopluacode
\stoptext
----
fails with:
"
...
tex error > tex error on line 14 in file d://Lukas/Docs/Ull-Gra/Test/Abr.mkiv: ! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack size=10000]
\GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG
$\fi
\GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG

$\fi
\GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG
$\fi
\GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG
$\fi
...
l.14 \stopluacode

"
I need to call "\GG" from within Lua, and the real macro name is created run-time (contrary to this MNWE; so to be \GG, \HH, \Fik etc. - the name is obtained from a Lua table as a string).
I cannot understand why all TeX calls are OK but the problem appears in Lua block...
Best regards,
Lukas

I want to just pass G_G in math mode, so it seems to me that "\ifmmode G_G..." does the check. The macro should write G + "lower index G" for both math and non-math scope.

If we are not in mmode, then we have the expansion of $ , so we enter in mmode and then we have the expansion of \GG again. In this second level of expansion, we are in mmod for sure and so we end again with G, _ and G. We cannot know what happen in other situations. For example, in \edef\x{\GG} as shown by Hans, at definition time the replacement text is expanded until possible. If at definition time we are not in mmode, this gives the endless sequence \GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi {\ifmmode: (level 1) entered on line 9} {false} {\else: \ifmmode (level 1) entered on line 9} \GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi {\ifmmode: (level 2) entered on line 9} {false} {\else: \ifmmode (level 2) entered on line 9} \GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi {\ifmmode: (level 3) entered on line 9} {false} {\else: \ifmmode (level 3) entered on line 9} \GG ->\ifmmode G_G\else $\GG $\fi .... because in this case the first $ is just accumulated, not interpretated --- i.e. doesn't trig the change of state to math mode. To avoid expansion we can say \edef\x{\noexpand\GG} which means that the replacement text of \x is \GG . Perhaps we can see better here: \def\HH{\ifmmode H_H\else$H_H$\fi} \edef\x{\HH} means, if we are not in mmode when \x is defined, \HH ->\ifmmode H_H\else $H_H$\fi {\ifmmode: (level 1) entered on line 10} {false} {\else: \ifmmode (level 1) entered on line 10} {\fi: \ifmmode (level 1) entered on line 10} {changing \x=undefined} {into \x=macro:->$H_H$} so the replacement text of \x is $H_H$ -- luigi [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: text/html, Size: 4678 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 485 bytes --] ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
