Re: [sword-devel] Versifications and verse order

2013-07-04 Thread Chris Burrell
So, my understanding from all the previous emails, is No we don't cope for books with different orders of keys. However these do happen. Moreover, the more general case of content from 1 verse switched with the content of another is more prevalent. So it's quite feasible to have a system that

Maybe the title should have included the phrase book order. As is fairly well known, the book order for the Epistles is different in Eastern Canon than in the Western Canon. This is just one such peculiarity for the NT. There is also that odd move of some verses to a different chapter in Romans

It uses QML, so it is part of Qt. I will bring this up to the others and see what they think about it all. It may be a good idea. Anyhow we are designing an interface at the moment to get the features we want, using what capabilities QML has, and designing it to be fully integrated with the

And (for example) if you wish to query the whole of the JPS module using book names, it will not do to specify *Gen-Mal*. You'd need to remember that in the Tanakh, the last book is *II Chronicles*. -- View this message in context:

Hi guys. The questions that need answers in this thread are logically complex and are one of the reasons we haven't finalized any additions to the core SWORD library to support this-- though I greatly appreciate the contributions made by Костя. Take, for example our standard 4 Bible web

SWORD does not support out-of-numerical-order v11n systems, e.g., one Bible might decide to number its verses 1,5,2,3,4,6,7. We do not plan to have a facility to support this. The argument has been made on threads-past which basically says: changing the logic of chapter/verse from integer

We have a design in place which allows for the code example I previously mentioned: lxx-setKey(nasb-getKey()) The engine recognized that the versifications are different and calls a facility to do the translation. We have not finalized on this facility yet. As also mentioned, ? has

STEP doesn't use any wrappers per say, but confines all the (J)Sword code to as few places as possible (4-5 classes). The idea being any changes to APIs are only in a few places. It also does mean that if for some reason some other engine comes along with a different format of books, then we'd be
