lyx-1.4 cvs assertion crash when resetting wrong language
Used todays cvs, opened a existing document. (Written in british language, which is unusual here) Wrote two lines of text, used edit-text style to give them different font sizes sans serif. This is a customized heading. Marked it, inserted a box(minipage) around it. Noticed the silly blue line that indicates different language appeared under text inside the box. Argh - not that again. :-( Selected the entire box and some more Used edit-text style: Decided to reset language. Lyx-1.4cvs died with this assert: pasteSelection 0 Assertion triggered in void Paragraph::setFont(lyx::pos_type, const LyXFont) by failing check pos = size() in file paragraph.C:487 The document was saved. Reloading the emergency saved stuff, I noticed the wrong language was now gone, but the text sizes inside the box were also wrong. The document was simple to fix, but I thought you'd like to hear about the assert. Helge Hafting

lyx-1.4 cvs assertion crash when resetting "wrong" language

Installing LyX from CVS
Hi, I've been using LyX for a little while mainly for Maths work but with a little script-writing thrown in there as well (I do Theatre Studies at school). I absolutely love the program, and thought I'd like to see what the latest version looked like. However, after autogen'ing, configuring and a good few minutes of make'ing, the following error message was thrown up: text2.C:162:2: warning: #warning broken? text2.C:1238:2: warning: #warning This will not work anymore when we have multiple views of the same buffer text2.C:1246:2: warning: #warning DEPM, look here text2.C:1289:2: warning: #warning DEPM, look here text2.C:677: warning: unused parameter =E2=80=98boundary=E2=80=99 text2.C: In member function =E2=80=98lyx::pos_type LyXText::getColumnNearX(lyx::pit_type, const Row, int, bool) const=E2=80= =99: text2.C:881: error: no matching function for call to =E2=80=98min(const int= , long int)=E2=80=99 make[3]: *** [text2.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/daniel/lyx/lyx-devel/src' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/daniel/lyx/lyx-devel/src' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/daniel/lyx/lyx-devel/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 It would be greatly appreciated if someone could shed some light on how I can fix this.

Hi Kayvan,
Put the following in your LaTeX preamble:
% RCS style.
\def\RCSdef $#1${\typeout{RCS keyword string: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: {} :.}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: #2 :#3.{\expandafter\def\csname RCS#1\endcsname{#2}}
Then, in your document (or in your preamble), do:
\RCSdef $Revision$
\RCSdef $Date$
Now, you can use \RCSRevision or \RCSDate in your document (in a
LaTeX ERT inset).
can i use this code similar with CVS?

I have been looking for a way do do it with out the $'s and :'s for quite a
while. Bosses did not seem to understand why I wanted to have version control
markers in my text when it looked so ugly, this makes it look Pretty. Now
I just have to make them understand that using the revision control version

\striprevision$Revision$

Put the following in your LaTeX preamble:
% RCS style.
\def\RCSdef $#1${\typeout{RCS keyword string: [EMAIL PROTECTED]: {} :.}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: #2 :#3.{\expandafter\def\csname RCS#1\endcsname{#2}}
Then, in your document (or in your preamble), do:
\RCSdef $Revision$
\RCSdef $Date$
Now, you can use \RCSRevision or \RCSDate in your document (in a
LaTeX ERT inset).
Thank you Very much.
I have been looking for a way do do it with out the $'s and :'s for quite a
while. Bosses did not seem to understand why I wanted to have version control
markers in my text when it looked so ugly, this makes it look Pretty. Now
I just have to make them understand that using the revision control version
indicator of documents is more meaningful than a never updated hand version
marker. :}

Sounds a bit complicated. Why not using TeX?
\def\striprevision$Revision #1${#1}
\striprevision$Revision$
should produce 1.2.3.4 if something (e.g. RCS) replaces
'$Revision$' by '$Revision 1.2.3.4$.

I embed Subversion keywords in my LyX documents (e.g. '$HeadURL$ $LastChangedRevision$') and this works fine. You can use the RCS keywords, which CVS uses to do the same thing. Try putting '$Revision$' in your document. Look at RCS's co(1) man page for a list of keywords. Unfortunately these (in RCS/CVS and SVN case) expand to the corresponding value *plus* the keyword text, i.e. not just: 1.2.3.4 but: $Revision 1.2.3.4$ which may look a bit messier than than you consider acceptable. In this case maybe you need to 'make' a stripped version. I.e. edit mydoc.lyx, and then use a Makefile to 'sed' this to mydoc-not-for-editing.lyx, and then lyx --export that to a printable format. Remember that the keyword will correspond to the last *committed* version; edits made after checking out will not affect the version number displayed. So always commit before printing if you want the correct number to be embedded in the doc. HTH Alexis

This sounds quite simple, before i started this thread, i googled the web with "linux lyx cvs" and found countless pages which doesn't help me. Is there any source to read for me? Until this weekend, i can't check it it, but i can read about it, if i know where.

\striprevision$Revision$

Lyx and CVS
Hi, while writing my master thesis, i started to use cvs to track changes in the text, pictures, measuremet results ... . Inside of my thesis i want to use the cvs version or revision tags (on the titlepage, or in the page headings/footer). Is/how it possibe to query cvs automaticly before printing the thesis, which number/tag is actual used in cvs, and insert this result into the text before printing starts? -- Thanx Roland P.S. I'll be probably offline till friday.
