Hi Thomas,

in latest:

since you're in 'latest mode' ... here is an experimental feature that you can test in the mkiv version of your modules \starttext \startbuffer \getcheckedparameters[MyTest][MyNamespace][a=1,b=2,c=3,d=4,crap=whatever] \MyNamespacea\quad \MyNamespaceb\quad \MyNamespacec\quad \MyNamespaced\quad crap is \ifdefined\MyNamespacecrap\else un\fi defined \stopbuffer \enablecheckparameters \setvalidparameterkeys[MyTest][a,b,c,d] \getbuffer \par \addvalidparameterkeys[MyTest][crap] \getbuffer \par \stoptext in due time we can add such testing to all mkiv commands but then we get the key info from the xml database technically we can check for values as well, but since for many commands values can be anything tex, we'd get too many errors reported so only keys can be checked when enabled this checker also intercept spaces as in a = b but not trailing spaces (i.e. before the comma or ]) because that would break compatibility with for instance label settings and such the overhead of this mechanism if small (some .1 sec on 10K calls) 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------

How should we deal with the different \getparameters in our macros.

I played with your code and have for the moment the following setup command in my module:

\def\dosetupcorrespondencesection[#1][#2][#3][#4]% {\ifx\enablecheckparameters\undefined \getparameters[#2#3][#4]% \else \getcheckedparameters[#2#3][#2#3][#4]% \fi}

we can make a dummy for mkii, like: \def\getcheckedparameters[#1]{\getparameters} 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 -----------------------------------------------------------------
