Hi,

Indeed you need to add the (relative) path, simply because tex cannot ask for a directory (well, now i think of it, it can by using a sys call; actually i do have a script that generates an xml path structure, so maybe i can add that as feature some day)

if your filenames are unique, you can omit the paths and say:

\usepath[BodyMatter]
\usepath[FrontMatter]

context does look for files at . and .. and ../.. and ../../.. (configurable depth)

I've got a very short question, but coupled to a very long
explanation, my question is: when referencing a component file from
within a product file (and given that the component file is stored in
the same directory as the product file, which is in a sub-directory
below my project file) must I include the relative path of the component
file from my project directory, through my sub-directories to my
component file, or can I just refer to the component's filename.

Now here is the actual example.  I've done a little bit of ASCII
artwork below showing the directory structure that I'm following.  My
artwork isn't the best, so I've also include some explanation.

Project

  ---- EnviromentPageLayout.tex  (global environment file)

       |

       |
       ---- ProductBackMatter.tex       (product file)
       |
       ---- Appendix01.tex              (component file)

       ---- Index.tex                   (component file)


In my Project directory I have two files:


1) EnvironmentPageLayout.tex

     If you are interested in an environment, the one I've based mine
     on is the one posted by David Arnold

http://ml-archives.mini.pw.edu.pl/ntg-context/msg02853.html

2) Project.tex

----

%project file

\startproject Project

\environment EnvironmentPageLayout

\product FrontMatter/ProductFrontMatter

\product BodyMatter/ProductBodyMatter

\product BackMatter/ProductBackMatter

\stopproject

---

>From the project directory, I've created 3 sub-directories,
FrontMatter, BodyMatter, and BackMatter and each of these
sub-directories contains:

1) an Environment file

2) a Product file, for example, in the BodyMatter directory, I have

-----

% product file

\startproduct ProductBodyMatter

\project Project

\environment BodyMatter/EnvironmentBodyMatter

\startbodymatter

\component BodyMatter/Chapter01

\stopbodymatter

\stopproduct

-----

  3) many Component files, for example, Chapter01.tex, in the BodyMatter
     directory, looks like:

-----

% component Chapter01

\startcomponent Chapter01

\project ProjectJavaXMLManuscript

\product BodyMatter/ProductBodyMatter

\chapter[introduction]{Introduction}

\stopcomponent

-----


So my question in terms of the above structure, is: must I refer to each component in the product file by its full path name

\component BodyMatter/Chapter01

or can I refer to it, by just its file name

\component Chapter01

where Chapter01.tex is a file contained in a subdirectory of the
project file.
