I wasn't able to get lookup.cpp to compile/link. Sorry. There are two complete vc6 projects available that may help with your "learning curve" to get up-to-speed with the sword-api. These are the "training wheels" simplifications of diatheke. You may find them helpful to be able to build a subset of the sword-api, and then be able to use the vc6 debugger to step into code and see how it works.
It is especially applicable to see how "versification" is done to convert a reference like John 3:16 into a file offset and length. The uncompressed example is less complex than the compressed example. www.bibleinverse.org/Misc/SwordMiniDiathekeWithModules.zip www.bibleinverse.org/Misc/SwordMiniDiathekeWithoutModules.zip SwordMiniDiathekeWithModules.zip can be unzipped anywhere. It is "self-contained" with the uncompressed and compressed modules. The libswordvc6.lib and libswordvc6d.lib have been built. SwordMiniDiathekeWithoutModules.zip needs to be unzipped in the same directory structure as Sword. It assumes a "standard development directory layout", such as: X:\SwordDir X:\SwordDir\apps X:\SwordDir\apps\console X:\SwordDir\include X:\SwordDir\lib X:\SwordDir\mods.d X:\SwordDir\modules X:\SwordDir\modules\texts X:\SwordDir\modules\texts\rawtext X:\SwordDir\modules\texts\ztext X:\SwordDir\src Some notes/caveats: * The source files are from 1.5.6 and may not be completely current. * These aren't for Borland C++, but rather for Visual C++ 6 HTH. Let me know if you have questions. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Greg Marine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Lynn Allan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 14, 2005 5:06 PM Subject: Re: [sword-devel] Borland C++ > Lynn, > > I appreciate your reply.
