[tw] [TW5] nesting transclusions

[Philip Coltharp]

Can we transclude a tiddler that would transclude from a third tiddler, on
TW5?

[Philip Coltharp]

When we talk about recursion in TW5 tranclusion, is it recursion of the use
of the $transclude widget itself where only one use of it is allowed -- OR
-- is it recursion as in the event that the transclude widget finds that
it is being asked to place a tiddler in the heap that had already been
added, therfore multiple nested levels are allowed but not such that
recursion is allowed?

Hi Philip,

Recursion is possible with TW. See the TableOfContent macro. ... But you
get a recursion error, if a transclusion has to show itself.

Put this into a tiddler: {{!!text}}
It will create this info: "Recursive transclusion error in transclude
widget" with a red background :)

hope that helps

this is the same: <$transclude /> function
-m

Whoa: what's going on. I'm trying to understand this. when I insert this
command it gives me the error as I expected, but then the other transclude
widgets begin to work they did not and do exactly as I I wanted ... so
except for the error!

This is because of the presents of a macro, when I remove the macro it
stops working . nevermind

So my problem might be associated with another issue. like using
transcluded fields in a filter . ?? I read that you can not supply macros
with transcluded fields.

You can next transclusions as deep as you want. A transclusion recursion
error results when you try to transclude a tiddler that has already been
transcluded in the same stack. In other words, if A transcludes B, and B
transcludes C, an error message would be displayed if C tried to transclude
A.
