The "save-as" part of the bug is fixed by extending the \textclass tag
such that, if a local layout file is used, its path relative to the
document directory is now stored together with the name. If a relative
path cannot be used, an absolute one is used but, in this case, the
document is not usable on a different platform.
The "copy" part is fixed by introducing a new \origin tag, which is
written when the file is saved. This tag stores the absolute path of
the document directory. If the document is manually copied to a
different location, the local layout file is retrivied by using
\origin (which is only updated on save).
This new tag may prove useful also for locating other files when the
document is manually moved to a different directory.
As in the original implementation the files needed for the layout
(for example, a latex class) had to be in the same directory as the
layout file, this directory has also to be added to TEXINPUTS.
As Enrico said, the user might have installed a package that was
missing (in which case the .tex file would not have changed).
Another reason is that changing some document settings did not
automatically lead to a fresh compile after an error (#9061).
Our old mechanism for detemining whether there was an error was to
check if the dependent file existed in the temporary directory. If
it did not exist, that meant it was removed, presumably because
there was an error during compilation. That mechanism cannot be used
anymore because we keep the files around even after error because of
the "Show Output Anyway" button (09700d5b). This commit implements a
more straightforward way of checking whether there was an error in
the previous preview by simply storing the success of last compile
in a buffer variable.
Systemcall::startscript returns the exit code of the LaTeX command
that is run, but the return value was not being checked by
LaTeX::run. Instead, we relied on parsing log files. However, this
parsing is not perfect.
The return value is now checked and if the exit code of the command
is non-zero, an enum value is added to the return and the user is
notified of the error.
At a higher level, if the LaTeX command returns a non-zero exit code,
in the GUI a message such as
"Error while exporting format: PDF (LuaTeX)" will be given instead of
"Successful preview of format: PDF (LuaTeX)".
When run on the commandline, lyx -e lualatex example.lyx
will give "Error: LaTeX failed" and a non-zero exit code
where before it gave a zero exit code.
A real example of the bug this commit fixes is LyX's (as of this commit)
ACM-sigplan.lyx template.
Before this commit:
$ lyx -e pdf2 ACM-sigplan.lyx
[...snip...]
support/Systemcall.cpp (288): Systemcall: 'pdflatex "ACM-sigplan.tex"'
finished with exit code 1
$ echo $?
0
Starting with this commit:
$ mylyx master -e pdf2 ACM-sigplan.lyx
support/Systemcall.cpp (288): Systemcall: 'pdflatex "ACM-sigplan.tex"'
finished with exit code 1
Error: LaTeX failed
----------------------------------------
LaTeX did not run successfully. The command that was run exited with
error.
$ echo $?

variable. This is done in the preferences, much like as the PATH prefix.
A single '.' in the paths will get replaced with the current document dir
and also non-absolute paths will be prefixed with that dir.
The default semantics of TEXINPUTS apply, such that, for example, if a
path is terminated with a double slash, all subdirectories will be also
searched by both the TeX engine and ancillary programs such as dvi
previewers or dvips. As an example, if the prefix is set to ".:figs", the
TEXINPUTS variable will be set as ".:<docdir>:<docdir>/figs:$ORIGTEXINPUTS",
where <docdir> is the document directory.
The initial '.' is necessary to address the actual current dir (this will
be the temp dir at preview time), while if TEXINPUTS was initially unset,
such that $ORIGTEXINPUTS is empty, a colon (or semicolon on Windows) will
end the path list. This is very important, because we don't want to replace
the system directories but to complement them and, in order to do that, an
empty element has to be present in the list. Indeed, according to the
TEXINPUTS semantics, an empty element means the standard search path.
This works whether TEXINPUTS is originally set or not, because if the
original TEXINPUTS starts with a colon (meaning that the standard search
path is wanted there) we will have an empty element at that point,
otherwise the final colon will simply serve as a path separator.
Of course, on Windows a ';' has to be used as a path separator. LyX will
take care of transforming the platform path list into one understandable
by the TeX engine. For example, this will be the case for a Cygwin version
of LyX using a native Windows TeX engine or viceversa. I tested all of
this and it works for me.
