[bt-devel] utf8transliterator

[James Ots]

Hi,

I just checked out the source code for sword and bibletime, and tried to 
compile. I had to compile sword without ICU, as is the default, as I don't 
have /usr/include/unicode. Then when I tried to compile bibletime I got an 
error in bibletime/backed/cswordbacked.cpp, because it couldn't find 
utf8transliterator.h, which seems to only be installed if sword is compiled 
with ICU. I commented this line out, and the compile worked fine, except for 
various warnings. There was a warning in cswordbackend about an unhandled 
enum in a switch statement, which I got rid of by adding this code at line 
385:

		case CSwordBackend::transliteration:  //prevent a warning
			return QString::null;

There were also quite a lot of warning which I considered going though and 
removing, but then decided against it as I don't know what anyone else is 
working on at the moment.

By the way, I'm new here. My sourceforge username is jamesots. I hope to help 
out with development of bibletime, as I've found it very useful since I 
switched to a linux only system, but have found niggling faults with it, 
which I'd like to get rid of! And I've had various ideas about how to improve 
it, although at the moment I can't recall what they were.
