Hi,
most examples in the mkiv-xml manual use #1 with \xmlsetsetup, e.g.
\startxmlsetups xml:demo:base
\xmlsetsetup{#1}{document|section|p}{xml:demo:*}
\stopxmlsetups
However, in quite a few occasions I’ve noticed the usage of \xmldocument
instead of #1.
What exactly is the difference ?
Hi Denis,
I have just found the following explanation
(https://www.pragma-ade.com/general/manuals/xml-mkiv.pdf#search=xmlself):
The macro \xmldocument expands to the current document id. There is
also \xmlself which expands to the current node number (#1 in setups).
Now I think that I have abused \xmldocument too much, since I should
have used #1. But I’m afraid I haven’t got much different results.
I must also confess that a proper explanation would be helpful (to me in
order) to understsand when \xmldocument should not be used.
if you load a main xmkl file that is then xml document; there can be
many xml files loaded at the same time (which you can then access bu
{whatever} you used and once in the tree nodes are #1)
