inline MP refresh problem
Hi all, when I change inline MP graphics, these are not recreated during the subsequent texexec run. I need to call texexec once again to have them refreshed. I have just installed a new box, but I think I have thought of the usual stuff in texmf.cnf and cont-sys.tex, and I am a little clueless at the moment. So thanks for any hints what might be the problem. My versions: pdfeTeX 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C 7.5.4) from tetex 3.0 ConTeXt ver: 2005.07.21 fmt: 2005.7.25 int: english mes: english Greetings, Eckhart

how do you define the graphic?

\startreusableMPgraphic{kreis} fill fullcircle scaled 1cm withcolor red; \stopreusableMPgraphic \starttext \reuseMPgraphic{kreis} \stoptext When I remove 'withcolor red', nothing changes until the second texexec invocation. -- Eckhart

it runs ok in newtexexec -) it has to do with the rather weak checksum calculation (i took that code from an example which - in retrospect- was crap, i.e. it does not really calculate a checksum -) i rewrote that part of texexec (assuming that nowadays the md5 library is part of perl distributions) i'll send you a file to test Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

It still doesn't work here. There have been complaints about arguments not numeric on line 1889, but changing == to eq had no influence on the final result. Still need an additional run. As you said, the problem does not occur when you use runtime MP processing, and would have gone unnoticed if I had not forgotten to switch it on.. -- Eckhart

I remember that the old checksumming code checked every other line, not all lines. Is that the problem perhaps? Taco
