Re: [sword-devel] Osis validation problems on header
Chris,
Many thanks for correcting that. That now validates in Notepad++ against
the osis schema.
Just one more question - will the scope Gen-Rev cause a problem since seven
additional deuterocanonical books are included? That is, since these are
located after Rev in the file, will they be omitted from the scope? This
knowledge would be helpful when module testing.
Thanks again.
John Duffy

Subject: Re: [sword-devel] Osis validation problems on header
Here is the valid version of your header. Comments follow.
...
That was most of your problems. The other problems were the curly quotes
instead of straight, as you noticed, the incorrectly cased date types
("Gregorian" must be capitalized), and the second subject element, which
I assume was just a mistake.
The above also includes a pair of corrections that wouldn't be cause my
a validator: The ISO 639 code should probably be lowercase. I don't
think ISO actually specifies this, but most other standards (e.g. BCP
47) recommend lowercasing language codes. And the scope statement should
be an osisRef, thus Gen-Rev rather than GEN-REV.

Re: [sword-devel] Alkitab Bible Study 2.4 is released
Tonny, I think your Robinson module is out of date. Yours is version 1.2 dated 2007-04-27. CrossWire repo has version 2.0 dated 2009-09-02. Please replace yours, so that anyone who installs Alkitab and who already has any other front-end that uses the same module path, does not get their Robinson module replaced by an older one.

[sword-devel] Ndebele and Shona Bibles online
Thank you, Chris, for putting the Ndebele and Shona Bibles online! I heard these were now there, and downloaded them. The people will now be able to use them for their spiritual and practical benefit. I saw that the xrefs were not there in the Ndebele module. Hopefully the USFM as delivered was clean enough for you to easily make a module out of it.

[sword-devel] Problem understanding wiki
Hi, I'm trying to understand how to convert an osis file to a functioning module in a Sword frontend. I'm following the steps at the wiki http://www.crosswire.org/wiki/DevTools:Modules, and using sword-utilities-1.6.0-r2473. However, after 'importing' the osis file, or rather converting it to four files (ot.vss, ot, nt.vss, nt), I am not clear as to what to do next. The next step seems ambiguous: "To compress a Bible, commentary, or LD module, use the mod2zmod utility. First you will need to install the module so that it can be accessed using the SWORD engine. Next, run:" and then gives the syntax for the compression executable mod2zmod. But does that mean that I should install the module before compressing it by running mod2zmod? If so, how do I install it? The instructions later on for installing a module imply that a single module or folder with module files is produced. All I have is the four files. I've been unable to compress them, as mod2zmod is looking for a module name, which I don't have. Am I doing something wrong?

John, That page is not as useful as this one: http://www.crosswire.org/wiki/Osis2mod However, after 'importing' the osis file, or rather converting it to four files (ot.vss, ot, nt.vss, nt), I am not clear as to what to do next.

Next, run:" and then gives the syntax for the compression executable mod2zmod. But does that mean that I should install the module before compressing it by running mod2zmod? Don't use mod2zmod, rather use osis2mod to compress it. Generally, I'll create the following folders in the same directory as my xyz.xml file: (where xyz is the lower case [name] of the module, in the conf.) mods.d/ modules/texts/ztext/xyz/ In mods.d, I'll put my xyz.conf. Osis2mod does not need it, but it makes a later step easier. I'll then run the following: osis2mod modules/texts/ztext/xyz xyz.xml -z Then I'll package it as a "raw" zip file with: (Note, XYZ is the exact casing of the [name] in the conf.) zip -r XYZ.zip modules mods.d During development it is useful to build an uncompressed module so you can read the files. I generally will create a simple folder, say "raw" for output (that way I don't have to dig down a long path for the files). Since I am debugging, I'll often use the -d option on osis2mod to mark each verse with it's reference: osis2mod raw xyz.xml -d 2 If so, how do I install it? The instructions later on for installing a module imply that a single module or folder with module files is produced. All I have is the four files. I've been unable to compress them, as mod2zmod is looking for a module name, which I don't have. Am I doing something wrong? No you are not doing something wrong. Mod2zmod is very useful to compress modules that are currently installed and not compressed. It is awkward otherwise. I think it will look for mods.d and modules in the current folder and use mods.d/xyz.conf to find the module under modules/. You might need to copy mod2zmod to the same folder as mods.d and modules. (I think that is needed on Windows. It is not on the Mac or on Un*x/Linux). Hope this helps.

Re: [sword-devel] Problem understanding wiki
To create a working module for testing purposes there is no need to use the compression step. The only further requyirement is to create a conf file. To do this copy any existing working one over and adjust the settings : name, path, module driver etc. Peter Original-Nachricht > Datum: Tue, 3 Nov 2009 10:46:20 - > Von: johndu...@cgcf.net > An: "\'SWORD Developers\' Collaboration Forum\'" > Betreff: [sword-devel] Problem understanding wiki > Hi, > I'm trying to understand how to convert an osis file to a functioning > module > in a Sword frontend.

[sword-devel] Patch for Sword crash with BibleTime on Windows
Hi,
I am working on BibleTime for Windows and we found and fixed a crash in
the sword library. I have attached a patch for the HEAD of sword svn. We
are using the 1.60 version of sword.
The crash occurs when trying to save to a personal commentary for the
first time. Sword is looking for the "incfile" of the personal
commentary. The file does not exist yet.. Here is the call stack and
function at the crash point.
libsword.dll!sword::FileDesc::read(void * buf=0x013eaec0, long count=4)
Line 139
libsword.dll!sword::RawFiles::getNextFilename() Line 194
libsword.dll!sword::RawFiles::setEntry(const char * inbuf=0x0253d050,
long len=3) Line 130
bibletime.exe!CSwordModuleInfo::write(CSwordKey * key=0x02e6cd00, const
QString & newText={...}) Line 705
long FileDesc::read(void *buf, long count) {
return ::read(getFd(), buf, count); // crash here
}
Since the file does not exist, getFd() returns a fd of -1. The read
promptly crashes with the negative fd. Tracing the same problem in linux
shows the same -1 fd, but the read does not crash there. The crash seems
specific to the Visual Studio 2008 runtime libraries, but reading with a
negative fd value is clearly wrong.
The fix is simple. Test for the negative fd and return 0 from
fileDesc::read if fd is negative. Returning 0 is what is happening on linux.

Re: [sword-devel] Python client
A pure-python zText reader was done here: http://github.com/kcarnold/pysword However, this has only a fraction of the module support Sword has, and is also quite a bit slower.

Re: [sword-devel] Python client
Mattias Põldaru wrote: Greetings I was wondering if anyone has implemented a pure python program for reading sword modules. If your question aims at a Python programme using the existing sword library written in C++ - there are several: There is BpBible, a client mostly for Windows, but compilable on Linux and potentially on Mac OSX. There is Rapier, a Maemo client. I think there had been a couple of others which have vanished from the scene. If your question aims at an attempt of a python implementation of libsword, Ben has directed you at the right place. The problem with that is that the module format is subject to arbitrary and unannounced changes as we expand and build on the library. Anyone who wants to use an alternative implementation will have a considerable risk that things suddenly cease to work. The generic answer to emails like yours is therefore - use the existing library with the language of your choice.
