All, I'm pumped to find out that there is an on-going port of the sword library to Java. Having hung out along the periphery since taking a meager shot at helping with the EntriesBlock class (in which I have everything done but the getRawData function ... I find that I can't get past ingrained tendencies not to do things in certain ways, sorry).
Anyway, I've been romping around the jsword project, and am ready to begin contributing to it. Attached is an ant build file for the stuff in /jsword/src that will compile the code, create the javadocs, and jar the class files. If you wanted to standardize to ant (many java projects are doing so as we speak), then this would take the place of the many Makefiles scattered about. I'm trying to get the stuff in apps to work, but it keeps crashing every time I attempt to compile with ant. Eventually, eventually. Next task, start writing JUnit classes to test the classes themselves. Yippee. BTW, if you've never used JUnit (or one of it's clones), you've been missing a real treat. Thanks, Bobby
