Hi Troy,

Thank you so much for looking into this!

setIntros is not available on SWModule, but only on SWKey.

I suppose the setIntros must be used like this?

SWKey*key= module->getKey();
VerseKey*verseKey= SWDYNAMIC_CAST(VerseKey, key);
*verseKey**->**setIntros**(**true**);*
ListKeyscope= verseKey->parseVerseList(bookCode, *verseKey, true);
ListKeyresultKey= module->search("/Heading", SWModule::SEARCHTYPE_ENTRYATTR, 0, &scope);

When I did that I still did not get the chapter headings, though.

Best regards,
Tobias

Dear Tobias,

I haven't had a chance to dig into this yet, but my first guess is that you may be missing the intro slots from the module.

VerseKey modules have intro entries:

for the chapter if you set verse to 0
for the book, if you set chapter to 0
for the testament, if you set book to 0
for the module, if you set testament to 0

You'll need to module->setIntros(true) if you want to access these.

Actually, maybe even just try setIntros(true) before your headings search. The content in these entries is likely marked up as headings, as well. For your purposes, you'll need to decide if you want anything in these entries. They might be a long book introduction. The presence of intro entries, length, and type of content varies greatly between modules.

Hope this give something to try,

Troy

    Hi Troy,

    I have started looking again into extracting book headings, so that I
    can generate a book outline in Ezra Bible App even when looking at
    individual chapters only. I had stopped looking at it when I was not
    successfully generating a Windows build any longer last year - but I
    could fix that, so now the work continues.

    I based my code on your example findHeadings.cpp.

    It seems like the list of extracted headings is not complete, though.

    When running this with the module GerNeUe and the book Acts I find that
    the headers returned are only section headers, but not chapter headers.
    Could you have another look based on the example and GerNeUe/Acts and
    advise?

    I have attached a list of headers that I get from the Bible text of
    GerNeUe/Acts - just for reference.

    Best regards,
    Tobias

        Sure Tobias, module->getEntryAttributes() will allow you to
        pull the headings from a verse, and an Entry Attributes search
        for '/Heading' will give you only the verses with Heading
        entries attributes. I've thrown together a quick example here,
        which you can use with something like: ./showHeadings NASB
        Matt-John which will give you the headings from the Gospels.
        https://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/examples/tasks/findHeadings.cpp
        <https://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/examples/tasks/findHeadings.cpp>
        Creating this example, I found I needed to fix a bug in the
        engine.  The engine Entry Attributes search lets you search
        for values in the entry attributes (e.g., a Strong's number
        1234).  In your use case, when searching, you don't care about
        the value; you only care about presence.  This wasn't working,
        but simple presence can now be searched for with my latest
        commit. Hope this helps, Troy On 4/12/21 9:31 AM, Tobias Klein

            Hi, I have been getting a request from a user to render
            section headings independently of the currently opened
            bible translation module. So for example when opening the
            KJV still using the section/chapter headers of the NASB.
            This would be useful in those cases when the respective
            bible translation module does not come with
            section/chapter headers, but another one does. A
            requirement would be to efficiently extract
            section/chapter headers from a module using the SWORD API.
            As of now I only see that you can iterate over the verses
            of a book and individually scan each verse for the
            headers. Is there a more efficient way of doing that?
            Another use case could be to render a book outline. This
            is what I am already doing now in Ezra, but in a way that
            is not so clean (I am traversing the DOM looking for all
            section header elements of the current book). Best
            regards, Tobias
