buffering inside xmlsetups
A problem I am obviously not able to solve. It can be described as follows. I have an xmlsetup <tex>..</tex> that typesets texcode embedded in an xml document. Now it is needed to embed initializing a buffer and typesetting lateron with \getbuffer. Alas, doing the following does not woek: <tex> \startbuffer[name] bufferdata \stopbuffer </tex> because the TeX input hangs. My guess being that the \stopbuffer fails to terminate the data intake. I then tried to split off the buffer filling with a separate xmlsetup. But here too, the TeX input halts: % Usage: <buffer name="name"> \startxmlsetups xmlcommon:buffer \startbuffer[name=\xmlatt{#1}{name}] \xmlflush{#1} \stopbuffer \stopxmlsetups % Usage: <getbuffer name="name"> \startxmlsetups xmlcommon:getbuffer \xmlflushcontext{\getbuffer[name=\xmlatt{#1}{name}]} \stopxmlsetups and as input: <buffer name="name">inputdata</buffer> followed by . The getbuffer setup is not even reached, as is obvious. I tried \xmltofile to put the data into an intermediate file, but to no avail because it produces the following, leading at best to recursion when processed by \xmlprocessfile. <?xml version="1.0" ?> <!-- exported fragment --> <buffer> bufferdata </buffer> Is there a solution to this?

Is there a solution to this? \setbuffer[<BUFFERNAME>]...\endbuffer
