Hi,
if I process an XML buffer, I’ve noticed I need to wrap the \xmlprocessbuffer in a \starttext ... \stoptext pair.
[...]
However, if I have the XML and the setups in dedicated files, there seems to be no need for \starttext ... \stoptext.
[...]
Running
context text.xml –environment=setups.tex
gives me a proper PDF without errors.
Therefore my question:
Does the use –environment automatically wrap the processed file in \starttext ... stoptext ?
If not, what’s the reason for this behaviour? Am I missing something?
ConTeXt uses the file extension to decide who it should handle document, in your case the extension is xml and the file is processed as \starttext \xmlprocess{main}{...}{} \stoptext The same thing happens when you have CLD document and use cld as file extension. For more details you can look at the processjob function in cont-run.lmt. Wolfgang
