Okay Troy. I never thought of that. Is it okay for the Android bible app to download it directly from the CrossWire site in the manner that BibleDesktop does?<div><br></div><div>Martin<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 2 July 2010 19:31, Troy A.

I'm excited about your work!<br>
<br>
However, please remove the ESV from your download file via Google. We
have often received complaints from GNP about redistribution of our ESV
data. The ESV is not a freely redistributable text.<br>
<br>
Thanks, and I'm looking forward to trying out your prototype!<br>

<div>I have built a working prototype of a bible for Android mobile
phones. The prototype uses a slightly modified JSword back-end. You
can download the prototype from <a href="http://code.google.com/p/and-bible/downloads/list" target="_blank">http://code.google.com/p/and-bible/downloads/list</a>.
You need to manually copy the contents of SdcardBibles.zip to your
Android's sdcard prior to installing AndBible.apk</div>

<li style="margin-left:15px">view a chapter at a time in bible

<li style="margin-left:15px">select a book: ESV bible, WEB bible,
Hebrew bible, JFB commentary, Barnes commentary by pressing a tool-bar

<div>Testing has been done on Android 1.6, 2.1, and 2.2. On a G1
performance is okay but there are some pauses. If the chapter is big
e.g. Ps 119 and most commentary pages there may be a long pause. I am
planning some performance analysis.</div>

<div><b>JSword</b></div>
<div>Android 2.2 has excellent support for JSword but unfortunately
java.xml.transform.* was only introduced in version 2.2 so I had to
switch from xslt to sax for html creation for the screen. Earlier
Android releases also appear to have issues with dynamic class loading
so I had to make some changes to JSword source for this prototype
build. I also made a memory optimisation.</div>
