Hey Alex, Well, it depends on what behavior you want to happen when parsing an 'invalid verse reference'.
1) Error() should be raised when parsing is completely misunderstood 2) You can set VerseKey::Normalize to false, and arguably Error() should be raised when parsing chapters and verses outside of the versification system, but I'm not sure Error() is raised currently. 3) if Normalize is false, you can check chapter and verse against VerseKey::getChapterMax() and VerseKey::getVerseMax() to see if it is outside the versification system. Hope this is slightly useful. You'll find the wrapping useful for things like: // show a context window int contextWindow = 5; for (verseKey-=(contextWindow/2); !verseKey.Error() && contextWindow; verseKey++) ... // show previous chapter verseKey.setChapter(verseKey.getChapter() - 1) ... etc. Regarding more API help and more examples. There is some documentation pulled from the comments in the code as doxygen here (but not as concise or helpful for a beginner as could be): http://www.crosswire.org/~ghellings/1_6_2classdocs/ But I think your best bet is the examples/ and tests/ directory in the source tree. If there is an example you would like to see, please shout and we can write one up together and improve the resources of example out.
