This is based on a question on tex.sx: http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/316504/323
In file-job.lua, we have:
local processors = utilities.storage.allocate { ... [v_product] = { [v_text] = { "many", processfilemany }, [v_project] = { "once", processfileonce }, [v_environment] = { "once", processfileonce }, [v_product] = { "many", processfilemany }, [v_component] = { "many", processfilemany }, }, [v_component] = { [v_text] = { "many", processfilemany }, [v_project] = { "once", processfileonce }, [v_environment] = { "once", processfileonce }, [v_product] = { "none", processfilenone }, [v_component] = { "many", processfilemany }, } }
Then, why is the product file processed multiple times? The rules for a component files are applied *after* \startcomponent which isn’t the case for the example where in the first iteration the "text" rules are applied and in the following iteration the rules for a product file.
Moving \product … after \startcomponent prevents the loop but the environment won’t be loaded anymore because the product file isn’t loaded anymore.
So, what's the recommended alternative? One could move the \environment to the components, but that can lead to a lot of repetitions (if there are many environments). Aditya
