Lexikon

An iPhone application to query and cache results from the online Lexin Swedish-English dictionary.

This is an application for me, Caleb Jaffa, to learn more about iPhone development and at the same time give me a handy tool to be able to translate Swedish words when I am out and about. I am an American that currently resides in Falun, Sweden.

Status

The basic functionality works, before version 1.0 is pushed to the AppStore I'm going to add to and polish the user interface. Searching activity indicator, and save/load state of the application.

For version 1.1 I want to refactor the model and controllers. There is too much model logic in the controllers. The plan is to use a class named CJLexikonLanguage to handle the word list and other data for a language which will use a class much like the existing Word, but renamed CJWord. This should greatly simplify the LexikonAppDelegate and MainViewController. It has a lot of immediate benefits and for the future if anyone wants another language supported.

Code Contributions

Lexikon is using Gus Mueller's FMDB adapter for managing talking with the SQLite database.
