SID-00104: SpreadSheetPlugin SKIPINCLUDE doesn't work with SECTIONS

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.0.5	Perl version:	5.6.0
Category:	SpreadSheetPlugin	Server OS:	RH 7.2	Last update:	16 years ago

Hi,

The default behaviour of the SpreadSheetPlugin is not to evaluate %CALC operations in the included topic during an %INCLUDE operation. There is a preference setting to control this behaviour, called SKIPINCLUDE.

If I set this to 0, %CALC results in the included topic are evaluated only if you include the entire topic. If I use either %STARTINCLUDE or %STARTSECTION, the %CALC results are not included.

This is with the latest version of the SpreadSheetPlugin, 13th Oct 2007.

If you can suggest a way around this, it would really help us.

Thanks in advance

Steve.

Discussion and Answer

This could be a bug in the TWiki core. Could you look into this? The plugin determines in sub commonTagsHandler if it is called from within an INCLUDE by looking at the 4th parameter to commonTagsHandler. Study lib/TWiki.pm for calls to $this->{plugins}->commonTagsHandler.
