Error when calling \placecontent from product

31 Jul 2008

      Hi,

I'd appreciated some help with the following problem. How can I stop
the following code generating an error on calling \placecontent from a
product?

In the test case I have files: env-test, prd-test, cmp-test.

\startenvironment [env-test]
	\def\dostartArticle[#1]% generate article header with
	{\getgparameters[my][#1]
		\chapter{\mytitle}
	}

	\def\dostopArticle{%
	\page}

	\def\startArticle{\dosingleempty\dostartArticle}
	\def\stopArticle{\dosingleempty\dostopArticle}
\stopenvironment

\startproduct prd-test
	\environment ../env-test
	\placecontent %fails with Undefined control sequence \mytitle
	\component cmp-test
\stopproduct

\startcomponent[cmp-test]
	\product prd-test
	\environment env-test
	%\placecontent %works here
	\startArticle[title={Into the unknown}, author={A. U. Thor}] %author
parameter unused in test, just example of what I expect \startArticle
to look like
	\input knuth
	\stopArticle
\stopcomponent

Any ideas how to make this work?

TIA,

Elliot
