[sword-devel] localized booknames - VerseMgr

[Troy A. Griffitts]

VerseMgr holds the authoritative "Key" book names we use in our locales 
(these are the English names) so you can just pass these to the 
translate method of any locale, e.g.

VerseMgr *verseMgr = VerseMgr::getSystemVerseMgr();
LocaleMgr *localeMgr = LocaleMgr::getSystemLocaleMgr();

VerseMgr::System *kjvVersification
	= verseMgr->getVersificationSystem("KJV");

// 0 = Genesis
SWBuf bookNameInEnglish = kjvVersification->getBook(0)->getLongName();

// you can translate using the 'current' locale
SWBuf bookNameInCurrentLocale = localeMgr->translate(bookNameInEnglish);

// or you can grab a specific locale from the mgr and translate using it
SWLocale *deLocale = localeMgr->getLocale("de");

SWBuf bookNameInGerman = deLocale->translate(bookNameInEnglish);


Hope this helps (and has no syntax errors)

	-Troy.
