Hi,

I import a theory from the HOL directory:

imports "~~/src/HOL/IMP/Big_Step"

and name it in the ROOT file:

session induction = HOL +
  options [document = pdf, document_output = "output"]
  theories [document = false]
    "~~/src/HOL/IMP/Big_Step"
  theories
    "Induction"
  document_files
    "root.tex" "build"

but then I get:

$ isabelle build -D .
*** Implicit use of directory
"/cygdrive/d/isabelle/Isabelle2020/src/HOL/IMP" for theory "induction.AExp"
*** Implicit use of directory
"/cygdrive/d/isabelle/Isabelle2020/src/HOL/IMP" for theory "induction.BExp"
*** Implicit use of directory
"/cygdrive/d/isabelle/Isabelle2020/src/HOL/IMP" for theory "induction.Com"
*** Implicit use of directory
"/cygdrive/d/isabelle/Isabelle2020/src/HOL/IMP" for theory
"induction.Big_Step"
*** Implicit use of session directories:
"/cygdrive/d/isabelle/Isabelle2020/src/HOL/IMP"

I get this even without mentioning the imported theory file in ROOT.

What shall I do?

I use Isabelle 2020.

If I understand correctly, the correct way to include a dependency
outside of your session would be to do this:

sessions
"HOL-IMP"
theories [document = false]
"HOL-IMP.Big-step"

However, you might want to base your entire session on HOL-IMP instead
of just HOL. This will result in better caching;

session induction = "HOL-IMP" +
...

Thanks for your help. At last it was enough to refer to the HOL-IMP
session in ROOT:

sessions

"HOL-IMP"

there was no need to name the imported theory.

The key step was to refer to the imported theory in my theory file via
the session name, not the file system path. When I entered Big_Step.thy
into my import clause, Isabelle/Jedit autocompleted it into
HOL-IMP.Big_Step. And it works:

imports "HOL-IMP.Big_Step"

Interestingly, when I based my session on "HOL-IMP" with

session induction = "HOL-IMP" +

and invoked

isabelle -c -D .

it started to rebuild HOL-Library which I really didn't want.
