BGL dictionaries reported to have 0 entries

When I scanned my bgl folder, GoldenDict detected all the dictionaries, but for the majority of them, it reported 0 entries.
I uploaded an example file:

I think now I dont have a reason to not move to Linux.

Your example dictionary works just fine. Maybe you've misinterpreted something?

I just tested again with only 1 folder containing the file.
Again, it shows up with 0 words and article.
Here is a screen
I'm using Windows 7 and Goldendict 0.9.0

This does look strange indeed. Ensure you have enough disk space for indices, try deleting indices. Make sure the file is actually readable by the program. In short, I have no idea how to reproduce this.

This is strange. I tried all of the above, but same results.
I tested in a Windows XP machine, and I had the same problem again.
I even tested the maemo build of godlendict 0.9 BUT it works correctly (at least it detected correctly the ebook and indexed it)
I already use Qt and QtCreator in Windows, so I can help you debug this problem, but right now, I have no idea where to start looking.

Any news about this bug ?
Are you considering a fix ?
So far, this bug is 100% reproduced on windows machines.

If it is 100% reproducible, how come no one else is having this problem?

probably because there are not so much files that trigger this behaviour.
Again, the problem is not in the files (they load correctly on Ubuntu and Maemo4.1), but always show 0 entries in Windows. (Even with a fresh installed windows)
I can provide 3 mores files that can reproduce the bug.
Please anyone with a windows machine can confirm it with the first file ?
Thanks

I've got the same problem with latest GoldenDict (goldendict=0.9.1~git20100413-1 package of Debian sid) with following file:
http://www.babylon.com/free-dictionarie ... 64762.htmlInteresting point is that even dictconv has the same problem with this file. I looked around it and found out this BGL has got some blocks of type 11 and 6 which are not handled at all in dictconv. Although I haven't looked at GoldenDict code, I thought maybe that point is a good clue to start with.
Thanks for the great software
