Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Numbered Examples in Linguistics

[Kotoschow]

Hi,

I'm having trouble with referring to numbered examples in the gb4e package. When I refer to a labeled example, instead of example number I get '??'. It happened even when I copy-pasted the example from LaTeX/Linguistics:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

1
2
3
4
5
\begin{exe}
        \ex\label{ex1} Godzilla destroyed the city.
        \ex\label{ex2} Godzilla roared.
\end{exe}
Sentence (\ref{ex1}) contains two arguments, but (\ref{ex2}) contains only one.

First: A MWE is necessary for us to help.

I don't know the package but have you compiled it two times? First the label needs to be written to the AUX file and secondly the \ref needs to `catch' the label.

[Kotoschow]

How do you do that? I don't see in reference to my numbered examples in the AUX. And I don't really know what i means to have \ref catch the label, other than what I showed in my example. Currently my AUX looks like this, if it helps:

Code: Select all

All you have to try first is to compile two times in a row. Have you done that?

As I said, a MWE is necessary for us to help.

Svend is right. For example this minimal working example:

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{gb4e}
\begin{document}    
\begin{exe}
        \ex\label{ex1} Godzilla destroyed the city.
        \ex\label{ex2} Godzilla roared.
\end{exe}
Sentence (\ref{ex1}) contains two arguments, but (\ref{ex2}) contains only one.
\end{document}

and gives after two compilations this output:

Yeah, it worked. I encountered this double-compilation thingie also in bibtex, should have thought about it. Isn't there any solution to this?

I think we can mark this as solved. Thanks!

Well, there are some tools that can take care of double compilation and similar stuff, e.g. latexmk or arara.

In my opinion double compilation is the solution. When I creat a document I usually have compiled it so often before it is ready that the double-compilation for references doesn't really matter.
