Strange interaction between hyperref, listings and animate

Question

I am trying to have a listing inside an animate environment. However I can't manage to do it if the hyperref package is loaded.

This is a MWE, obviously in the real application I need hyperref for other parts of the document. Is there a workaround? Some option in hyperref for example?

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{animate}
\usepackage{listings}
\usepackage{hyperref} % comment this line to make the example work
\begin{document}
\begin{animateinline}[autoplay, loop]{5}
\begin{lstlisting}
listing inside animate
\end{lstlisting}
\newframe
text in frame
\newframe
\end{animateinline}

\begin{lstlisting}
listing outside animate
\end{lstlisting}

\end{document}

The error is

! LuaTeX error (ext4): destinations cannot be inside an XForm.
<argument> ... resources {\the \pdfpageresources }\@anim@box 
                                                  \xdef \@anim@lastxform {\t...

The error is really an interaction between the three packages. listing works outside the animate or without hyperref. animate works without listings or without hyperref.

Possibly related: Hyperref adds vertical space to listings which gives me the idea that listings uses some hyperref feature if the package is previously (?) loaded. Something like this is described in the Section 5.3 in the listings package manual.

Answer 1

The problem is that package animate has to use XForm objects for the appearance streams of the annotation. There pdfTeX does not allow destinations, which are automatically added by hyperref for the listings.

A workaround is environment NoHyper of package hyperref, which disables the hyperref stuff temporarily:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{animate}
\usepackage{listings}
\begin{document}

\begin{NoHyper} 
\begin{animateinline}[autoplay, loop]{5}
\begin{lstlisting}
listing inside animate
\end{lstlisting}
\newframe
text in frame
\newframe
\end{animateinline}
\end{NoHyper}

\begin{lstlisting}
listing outside animate
\end{lstlisting}
\end{document}

Automated solution

The environment NoHyper can be put into environment animateinline. The following example uses package etoolbox for the patching:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{animate}
\usepackage{listings}

\usepackage{etoolbox}
\pretocmd\animateinline{\NoHyper}{}{%
  \errmessage{Cannot patch \string\animateinline}%
}
\apptocmd\endanimateinline{\endNoHyper}{}{%
  \errmessage{Cannot patch \string\endanimateinline}%
}

\begin{document}
\begin{animateinline}[autoplay, loop]{1}
\begin{lstlisting}
listing inside animate
\end{lstlisting}
\newframe
text in frame
\newframe
\end{animateinline}

\begin{lstlisting}
listing outside animate
\end{lstlisting}
\end{document}
