[sword-devel] localized booknames - VerseMgr

Re: [sword-devel] localized booknames - VerseMgr
VerseMgr holds the authoritative Key book names we use in our locales (these are the English names) so you can just pass these to the translate method of any locale, e.g. VerseMgr *verseMgr = VerseMgr::getSystemVerseMgr(); LocaleMgr *localeMgr = LocaleMgr::getSystemLocaleMgr(); VerseMgr::System *kjvVersification = verseMgr-getVersificationSystem(KJV); // 0 = Genesis SWBuf bookNameInEnglish = kjvVersification-getBook(0)-getLongName(); // you can translate using the 'current' locale SWBuf bookNameInCurrentLocale = localeMgr-translate(bookNameInEnglish); // or you can grab a specific locale from the mgr and translate using it SWLocale *deLocale = localeMgr-getLocale(de); SWBuf bookNameInGerman = deLocale-translate(bookNameInEnglish); Hope this helps (and has no syntax errors) -Troy.

Re: [sword-devel] localized booknames - VerseMgr
Sorry, so briefly, if you have the VerseMgr::Book object, you can get the translated book name with: LocaleMgr::getSystemLocaleMgr-translate(book-getLongName()); Troy A.

[sword-devel] encoding acrostic titles (Ps 119)
Am trying to clean up a new module but stumble over the Ps 119 acrostic titles. In USFM they are encoded \qa [Letter] I tried lg type=acrostic [Letter] /lg but it appears that xmllint does not like it.

Re: [sword-devel] ICU transliteration resources
On Thu, Feb 19, 2009 at 3:13 PM, Chris Little chris...@crosswire.org wrote: Matthew Talbert wrote: I have successfully compiled ICU with mingw on Windows and I'm trying to get the transliteration filters working. These now work in Xiphos in linux. However, the location of the filters appears hard-coded in utf8transliterator.cpp. Is there an interface to allow passing the location at runtime? This is necessary for Windows where the location is not known at compile time. None of the hard-coded paths are used in BibleCS. BibleCS finds its resources in the current directory (or using PATH if that fails) in the standard way that one locates DLLs. For details about why those hardcoded paths are in there, I believe you would have to ask Daniel Glassey. I believe there is also a way to pass locations of resource bundles at runtime, but I'm not sure what it is. Additionally, I hardcoded the location into utf8transliterator.cpp, and it apparently loaded the filters, but transliteration still wasn't working in Xiphos. Is there some way to test that the resource files are actually correct? If you build ICU from source, it should result in a program called uconv. If you run uconv -L, it will list all of the transliterator resources available in whichever resource bundle(s) it is finding. I do not understand how BibleCS is managing this, as I was unable to even locate the resources in the installation. ICU resources are located in the file icudt40.dll (40 being for version 4.0 and being adjusted accordingly for other releases of ICU). It's located in the program's directory, which is the same way Adobe Acrobat, Logos, etc. package their ICU DLL. Building linking the ICU DLL is a bit complicated. Visual Studio is one of ICU's reference platforms, but Borland C++ Builder isn't even a supported platform. So we build the resource bundle lib dll in VS, convert the lib from VS to Borland format, link against the converted lib, and ship the VS dll. So if it's possible to use/convert the VS lib and use the same dll as BibleCS, that might be the best solution for you. (I can send the lib file if you'd like to try.) --Chris Thanks for the reply. It is much as I suspicioned. I do have Visual Studio, and I was able to easily compile ICU with that, however it did not give me an icudt that I could see. Perhaps I'd better look again. Of considerable concern to me is whether I will be able to link against that with gcc/g++ so I would rather use what I have currently. I will try uconv and see what I get there.

[sword-devel] Xiphos 3.0.1
Released this afternoon. This is mostly an urgent bugfix release induced by the discovery of UTF16 incompatibility in NTFS pathnames. A few other bugs have been addressed along the way, and I implemented the transliteration interface as well. Linux RPMs and whatnot should appear, I expect, in the next couple days. The WIN32 installer image is up on SF alongside the source tarball. ___ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
