It's a collection of all cross-referencing stuff and metadata that occurs in your documents. Since the pickle format is quite opaque, it is very possible that even if the internal structure of the data is the same, the output is slightly different. (Things like dicts having no predictable order may also play a role.) If you want to know exactly what's in an environment, look at the data attributes defined here: http://www.bitbucket.org/birkenfeld/sphinx/src/tip/sphinx/environment.py#cl-242 cheers, Georg --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-dev" group.
