The problem is that the AbstractSwordInstaller sits over top of mods.d.tar.gz, which it does not unpack. Instead, it iterates over all the entries in that binary file and handles each entry (i.e. a conf) in core. It doesn’t hit the disk. I’m wondering whether it would be alright to unpack the file in the same folder? That would allow a SwordBookMetaData to reload the file. It would also mean that SwordBookMetaData would only need one means of reading a conf as it’d be a file and not a byte array.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">It isn’t a problem with desktop or server apps, but it might be for AndBible.<br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">— DM<br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Jan 10, 2016, at 3:31 PM, DM Smith <<a href="mailto:dmsmith@crosswire.org" class="">dmsmith@crosswire.org</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=utf-8" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class="">The problem you encountered was 2 bugs:<div class="">When the module is not UTF-8 the remote repository’s conf is re-read, but the filter wasn’t passed.</div><div class="">Not intended, but IniSection required a filter, rather than saying a null filter meant everything passed.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I’ve checked in that fix.

My ideas aren’t good enough to be put into practice, but some kind of flag indicating empty, partially or fully loaded. Empty would mean that it hasn’t gone to disk to get the conf. Partial means that it read everything, but threw away most as not interesting (since the conf does not have order you have to read and parse it all). Full would mean that nothing was pitched. SwordBookMetaData.getProperty would need to be changed to determine whether the key is in memory or might be on disk and do the right thing. Or we could keep getProperty as it is and if you want one of the fields that is not stored (e.g. About) you have to call reload().</span></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Maybe we could also cache that info into a separate file(s)?
