Hi all,

At present the value of org-coderef-label-format in a source code
editing buffer does not inherit its value from the value in the
corresponding org-mode buffer but instead, if it is not specified by a
-l option, defaults to the global value. Note that it is the value in the
org mode buffer and not the global value that is used for such things as
exporting so this can lead to inconsistent behaviour.

The following patch on org-src.el will fix this, and, as far as I can
tell, it doesn’t break anything else:

(N.B. I’m using org-plus-contrib-20160725 and Emacs 25.1.50.1)

======== snip =======

After this you can do things like the following in an org-mode buffer,
so that the labels are embedded in comments and the code block will
still execute:

# Local Variables:
# org-coderef-label-format: "#(ref:%s)"
# End:

and you could write something like:

#+BEGIN_SRC ruby -r

instead of:

#+BEGIN_SRC ruby -f -l "#(ref:%s)"

which is quite convenient if you have lots of blocks

A Suggestion:
============

In addition it would be nice if there were some way of giving a default
value for org-coderef-label-format that depends on the language of the
code block it is associated with, but I’m not sure what the best way to
implement this would be.

Sorry that should have been:

#+BEGIN_SRC ruby -r -l "#(ref:%s)"

It is already possible to do that with the current implementation, so
I'm not sure to understand the bug you're reporting.

Besides, I added support for evaluating code blocks containing coderefs.
It might be related to your post.

`org-coderef-label-format' could become `org-coderef-label-alist' where
key is the language, as a string, and value the format string.  You
would also need to implement a getter e.g.,

  (defun org-src-get-coderef-fmt element)

that would return the appropriate format-string.

Would you want to provide a patch for that?
