doc/bugs/multiple_pages_with_same_name.mdwn



I'm just working on an updated solution to [[todo/automatic_use_of_syntax_plugin_on_source_code_files]] (see also [[plugins/contrib/highlightcode]] or [[plugins/contrib/sourcehighlight]]).
I realised that this is going to have problems when you ask it to process .c and .h files with the same base name.  e.g. hello.c and hello.h.
I tested it briefly with test.java and test.mdwn just to see what would happen.  Things got quite strange.  The source-highlighting plugin was called (probably for the java file), but then when it calls pagetype($pagesources{$page}) to figure out the file type, that function returns mdwn, which confuses things somewhat.
Anyway, I'm thinking about possible solutions.  The best option I've come up with so far is: when registering an htmlize hook, add a new optional paramter 'keep_extension'.  This would make a source file of hello.c generate a page with name hello.c rather than the current hello.  This would keep the pages unique (until someone makes hello.c.mdwn...).
Suggestions welcome.
