Log:
Revert r36696: We can't collect BibTeX information during the
updateBuffer() traversal. The reason is simple: InsetCitation needs
access to the BibTeX info to calculate its label. But we won't
have it
until we get to the bibliography.
I don't think there is any way around that.
Couldn't we just pass until it gets loaded? I don't see how this is
any different than reference and labels... maybe I am wrong but it
should be as simple as coming back to the InsetCitation in
InsetBibtex::updateBuffe().
How do we go back to the InsetCitation once we have already passed
it? I mean, on that trip through? How do we know when all the
bibliography information has been loaded? We can't until we are
done. So the only thing I can see would be to collect pointers to
all the InsetCitations and then do them all at the end. I don't see
anything similar with references and labels. Their screen labels do
not depend upon anything else.
We _do_ something similar with references and labels: see
Buffer::references() and Buffer::setInsetLabel().
This seems along the lines of the other suggestion that you picked up
on: collecting pointers to all the citations and then doing them at
the end. I'll look at implementing something like that.
Maybe you should wait for 2.1 to be opened.
We then end up with a citation cache, much like the reference cache.
Then the question is: Are there other cool things one could do with
it, if we had it?
I am sure we would then be able to do funky things with outline and
context menu. No concrete idea though...
