lyx input nesting incorrecly extracted in temporary directory

[jras@…]

First, i am not sure if this is an error or just the normal behaviour,
but in any case if it could be of any help...

When i use nested "input" (not include) with ".lyx" files and i try to view
the result i get a latex error about the last level file ".tex" file not found.

It seems to me that the problem is that in the temporary directory used to
do the rendering, the "input" are only extracted to .tex files in the first
level in the main directory, and the second level of "input" is extracted
to the other temporary directory of that second level file, instead of the
main file.

On the other hand the "export to LaTeX" with two levels of input using
.lyx files works well and all the files in the second level of nesting are
extracted correctly.
By the way, this is a temporary work around, because if i export to LaTeX
the main file, all the second level files are also extracted correctly and
as there exist the .tex files in the normal directory the rendering then
works ok (except changing any second level input file that requires a new
export).

[levon]

I don't think input is supposed to be used with .lyx files at all ?

[dekel]

No, you can use input with .lyx files.
I have no ide why the file dialog sets the pattern to *.tex
and not *.(lyx|tex)

[lasgouttes]

Ths should be fixed, I think

[levon]

1.3.0 bugs are now 1.3.1 bugs

[lasgouttes]

I forgot to say: this patch is against 1.3.X, but should apply to 1.4.0cvs too.

[lasgouttes]

A first patch

[stephan.witt@…]

Patch against lyx-1.2.3 to fix this bug

[cengique@…]

* #927 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *

[levon]

Lars doesn't want any bugs.

[cengique@…]

I have been using the patch provided by Stephan Witt (originally by Jean Marc)
and tested it with my 133 page document which consists of files of all kinds
spread over many directory hierarchies. Anyway, the point is that it works!

I would very much like to see this patch in the CVS. I couldn't understand what
exactly you like us to test for the graphics insets? I didn't have any problems
with them in the first place?

Please let me know how I can help you test the patch further.

[lasgouttes]

I think the problematic case was something like

file foo1.lyx inputs dir1/foo2.lyx
file dir1/foo2.lyx inputs dir1/dir2/foo3.lyx
file dir1/dir2/foo3.lyx uses graphics graph.eps (in dir1/dir2)

the \includegraphics for graph.eps should read
\includegraphics{dir1/dir2/graph.eps}
but it did not.

Basically, I think that this patch works, except for external
inset (should not be too difficult to fix, but we want
a different handling for latex and docbook). Since I want to
release 1.3.2 very soon, I will have to delay the patch again, and I
am sorry about that. What I will do however is to produce a
patch against 1.3.2 just after the release...

[levon]

JMarc, it's post 1.3.2. Status ?

[lasgouttes]

I'd like to have time to finish this either at chemnitz or the week after.

For 1.4.0cvs, I am not sure what the situation is now. Do inset have access
to their buffer?

[Lars Gullik Bjønnes]

What is the status on this one?
There seem to exist a patch, but has it been applied?

[cengique@…]

As of 1.3.4, the patch is still not applied.

[lasgouttes]

Patch ported to 1.3.4 (or 1.3.5cvs)

[cengique@…]

The patch seem to work fine in 1.3.4. I tested a few large documents that
require the patch. Thanks..

[Georg Baum]

This is fixed in 1.4.0cvs now. Note to comment #17: The external material inset
was fixed by introducing new variables and redefining existing ones. I don't
think this makes sense for 1.3, and it is IMHO not possible to fix the bug
without redefining variables. Therefore the latest patch at ​http://
bugzilla.lyx.org/attachment.cgi?id=534&action=view could be applied, fixing
everything but external material.


Georg

[cengique@…]

Sorry couldn't hold myself from saying this:

A patch a day keeps the bugs away.

-some wise man

:) I'll start looking at 1.4.0cvs as soon as I can, sounds intriguing. I
assume this is the HEAD branch, since I couldn't find a branch tagged with
this name.

[cengique@…]

I just wanted to thank you guys for including the patch to this bug in the
current 1.3.5 release. I can finally share documents with regular lyx users.
Cheers..

[lasgouttes]

You are very welcome. It took time!

Since the fix in 1.3.5 is good enough (even if it does less than
1.4.0cvs), I close the bug.
