[sword-devel] Sword phrase search not returning all expected results

[Tobias Klein]

Hi Troy,

an Ezra Bible App user reported that the phrase search is not working as 
expected.

Here is an example where the results are not as expected.

Module: KJV

Search term: "generation to generation"

I get the following results from the SWORD engine:
Isa 13:20
Isa 34:10
Isa 34:17
Isa 51:8
Jer 50:39
Dan 4:3
Dan 4:34
Joel 3:20
Luke 1:50

However, the verse Exodus 17:16 also contains this phrase, but is not in 
the list of search results.
Could it be related to the way how the markup is structured?

In Exodus 17:16 [KJV], the markup of the respective phrase looks like this:

<w class="strong:H01755">from generation</w> <w class="strong:H01755">to 
generation</w>

This is how I call the search function of the SWORD engine:
listKey = module->search(searchTerm.c_str(), int(searchType), flags, 
scope, 0, internalModuleSearchProgressCB);
see

Have a nice weekend!

Best regards,
Tobias
