<p>Hi Troy,</p>
<p>I think the usecase I mentioned is maybe most relevant when
installing modules.</p>
<p>Well, I'm generating a table like this as meta information for
bible translation modules:</p>
<table style="color: rgb(54, 43, 54); font-family: "Lucida
Grande", "Lucida Sans", Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 12.8256px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures:
normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400;
letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start;
text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal;
widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;
background-color: rgb(242, 245, 247); text-decoration-style:
initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 9em;">Name:</td>
<td>engNET2016eb</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Version:</td>
<td>25.2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Language:</td>
<td>English</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Strong's:</td>
<td>Yes</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Headings:</td>
<td>Yes</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Footnotes:</td>
<td>No</td>

<tr>
<td>Cross references:</td>
<td>No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Red letter words:</td>
<td>No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Size:</td>
<td>3628 KB</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br>
So this is sort of a human-readable version of the module's conf
file. <br>
<br>
I just implemented a method to query on this type of information -
based on your earlier tip. I guess something like this could be
integrated in the Sword API to make it more accessible/convenient.<br>
<br>
<tt>bool moduleHasGlobalOption(SWModule* module, string
globalOption)</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>{</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> bool hasGlobalOption = false;</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> ConfigEntMap::const_iterator it =
module->getConfig().lower_bound("GlobalOptionFilter");</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> ConfigEntMap::const_iterator end =
module->getConfig().upper_bound("GlobalOptionFilter");</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> for(; it !=end; ++it) {</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> string currentOption =
string(it->second.c_str());</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> if (currentOption.find(globalOption) !=
string::npos) {</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> hasGlobalOption = true;</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> break;</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> }</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> }</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> return hasGlobalOption;</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>}</tt><br>
<br>
I don't actually need additional Sword API features for toggling
markup, only to retrieve the meta information for the modules.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Tobias<br>

<p>Hi Tobias,</p>
<p>Yeah, so in my frontends, I usually just have a toolbar or
option menu which has associated buttons or menu checkbox
toggles for any options available in the installed module set,
which can be obtained, along with suggested option names,
tooltips, options value (if more than simply On and Off are
available) with the code Peter sent.</p>
<p>I know at least Bibletime, at one point and probably still,
lists the options per modules.</p>
<p>My usecase is typically: I want to toggle Strongs and
Morphology for a second while I do a word study; I want to turn
footnotes on or off, etc. I typically don't care if it is done
for one particular module. I just want them either on or off.</p>
<p>But, I understand others have different study habits and that
is why we have different user interfaces.</p>
<p>So, having said all this... SWModule::optionFilters will give
you a list<OptionFilter *> for any module. The problem
right now is that this property is protected. You would need to
expose this in a derived class and override SWMgr::createModule
to construct your derived class instead of the ones created in
the default implementation. That would suck and isn't the path
I would want you to go down.</p>
<p>So, I can add a public getOptionsFilters() method for you to
access this, if you really wish to know exactly which option
filters are available on a per module basis. That's simple and
would help other who wish to show per module options.</p>
<p>There is one caveat though, the default implementation of
SWMgr::addGlobalOptionFilters only constructs one instance of
each type of filter and reuses it for all modules which want
that same filter. This is how, e.g., toggling Strongs numbers
toggles it for all modules. If you indeed wish to allow
toggling of an option for a single module, but not others, then
you'd want to override SWMgr::addGlobalOptionFilters and make it
work more like SWMgr::addLocalOptionFilters, which constructs an
instance of the filter for each module, and thus would allow you
to toggle one option for a module and not affect that same
logical option class for any other module.</p>
<p>Hope this is helpful,</p>
<p>Troy</p>

<p>Hi Troy, Peter,</p>
<p>Thank you! My usecase is to list the options available for
one particular (bible translation) module.</p>
<p>@Troy: The solution you suggested is probably what I need. Or
are there better solutions based on my usecase mentioned
above?<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Tobias</p>

While Peter is correct about how to find all the options that
any loaded module might allow for toggling by an end user...
and if this is your purpose, you should certainly use the
methods Peter suggested... your question as to more generally
how to read config entries which have the same key values is
answered by how to iterate a multimap in C++.
SWModule::getConfig returns the full multimap of config
entries. Something like this should work:Hi <br>
<br>
ConfigEntMap::const_iterator begin =
module->getConfig().lower_bound("Key");<br>
ConfigEntMap::const_iterator end =
module->getConfig().upper_bound("Key");<br>
<br>
for(; begin !=end; ++begin) {<br>
cout << begin->first.c_str() << " = " <<
begin->second.c_str() << endl;<br>
}<br>
<br>
But I've never needed to do this as a client of the library.
Maybe if you tell us your use case, we can recommend a
facility in the system which might make things easier for you.<br>

There is a set of separate methods for those.
Check out ./examples/cmdline/listoptions.cpp

StringList optionValues =

optionValues.begin(); it2 != optionValues.end(); ++it2) {
cout << "\t" << *it2 << "\n";
