We would like to heve the spell checker recognize German words. In standard eclipse distributions I can import word 
definitions (see attachment spell_checker_eclipse.png). Under the Momentics IDE, these options are not available (see 
spell_checker_qnx.png). I guess I have to install additional plug-ins?? On the other hand, the editor does report 
several misspelled words, so there must be a spell checking engine running.

Thanks,
-Albrecht

Re: Cont'd: Spell checking in IDE?

Which version of IDE you are using? I can see this dialog correctly in 
IDE 4.7 (new one). If you would like to try it you can download it from 
the foundry

Re: Cont'd: Spell checking in IDE?

The screenshots were from IDE 4.6 (latest released), but I tried it on the IDE 4.7 ALPHA and I see the same error. How 
can this be? Are there any command line parameters to the IDE, or entries in config files to be made?

Regards,

Maybe it is caching something? Can you start IDE on new workspace?

Re: Cont'd: Spell checking in IDE?

Ok found an answer


	

The CDT version of Ganymede apparently shipped improperly configured. After playing around for a while, I have come up 
with the following steps that fix the problem.

   1. Export your Eclipse preferences (File > Export > General > Preferences).
   2. Open the exported file in a text editor.
   3.

      Find the line that says

      /instance/org.eclipse.ui.editors/spellingEngine=org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.text.spelling.DefaultSpellingEngine
   4.

      Change it to

      /instance/org.eclipse.ui.editors/spellingEngine=org.eclipse.cdt.internal.ui.text.spelling.CSpellingEngine
   5.

      Save the preferences file.
   6. Import the preferences back into Eclipse (File > Import > General > Preferences).

You should now be able to access the Spelling configuration page as seen above.

Note: if you want to add a custom dictionary, Eclipse must be able to access and open the file (i.e. it must exist - an 
empty file will work)

Re: Cont'd: Spell checking in IDE?

Great Help, thank you. Only thing was that there was no entry for the spelling engine at all, so I simply inserted the 
CSpellingEngine entry. Might have something to do with the fact that I disabled spell checking altogether beforehand.
