[sword-devel] mod2osis failure

[DM Smith]

It should. The filters are complete. But there is no guarantee that they'll produce valid OSIS. Only that it is well formed.

See org.crosswire.jsword.examples.BibleToOsis.java for an example.

This is a little dated. The form of the titles should be changed and verse elements should be milestoned.

There is no attempt to reverse the osis2mod transformations. But otherwise, it is good.

Just note, it is an example. It hard wires the KJV, which is already OSIS.

In Him,
	DM

Its use is essentially for exporting our texts for use outside of Sword, which we don't support or encourage and which as often as not constitutes a license violation (of the content licenses). So, while I wouldn't mind seeing mod2osis work correctly, I'm not personally likely to expend much effort on it.
