[CODE]: spellchecker, hunspell, MacOS
Hi,
do anybody know if Hunspell is also used and necessary on MacOS?
I noticed some build problems after the latest update and did a build
without --enable-hunspell. The build breaks in
lingucomponent/.../macspellimpl.cxx
There was still a dependency to some types defined in Hunspell. I tried
to fix that and was able to build...
But it seems that spellchecking doesn't work, and also redlining doesn't
work. Before i take a closer look in this problem i would like to know
if it should work without Hunspell in general.
Any hints are welcome.

I don't know exactly (native spellchecker is used imho) but it is
built as static library IIRC.

FYI, I upgraded hunspell version to 1.3.1 in OOo4Kids, and maybe I
could reverse the patch to Apache OpenOffice.org ?
There was some issue mostly on Windows (I took me some times to
figure out what happened if I remember correctly)

indeed you patch solves the problem and the spellchecker is now working
on MacOS as well without --enable-hunspell.
I will integrate it with my changes in the code. But there is still some
work for MacOS open to handle user dictionaries in a proper way or to
clean the code finally. Postponed to later.

yes, and it was simple compiler error, "dictentry" not defined ...
But the whole code looks strange, some places were changed where this
type was used before. I have changed the code and removed unused stuff...

i used an English version and at least the English dictionary is
installed. In other built office versions the spellchecker worked.

I assumed that somewhere is something triggered by Hunspell that now
doesn't work. I don't know yet. The only thing i see is that it doesn't
work. I will keep you informed.

it was me who removed the dependency on hunspell there.
By reading the sources (I don't have a MacOS, and never will) in
trunk/main/lingucomponent/source/spellcheck/macosxspell/
that code has no dependency at all in libhunspell.
The dependency on hunspell was spread all over the components there,
sure a bug of copy-and-pasting the makefiles.
So you should be able to build the MacOSXSpell component without
hunspell enabled, and spell checking should work with only this
component installed. Otherwise, its a bug (I tested the changes both on
Linux and WinXP and the three components can be build and installed
independently form each other; the same should work in MacOS).
> There was still a dependency to some types defined in Hunspell. I

that's quite strange. Do you have the logs?
Was it a clean build?
The dependency on hunspell should now be only limited to
trunk/main/lingucomponent/source/spellcheck/spell/ that is the only UNO
component that interfaces with libhunspell.
All the other code in lingusitic and lingucomponent should work out fo
the box without hunspell.
> But it seems that spellchecking doesn't work,
for spell checking to work you need the dictionaries (I have no idea
what kind of dictionaries supports MacOS), but without dictionaries
installed the UNO component are not even listed in Tools - Options
- Linguistic - Writing Aids
> and also redlining doesn't work.
AFAIK redlining does not depend on spell checking

AFAIK it should, just look at the sources, macspellimp.hxx and
macspellimp.cxx have no reference to hunpsell (the references I removed
- look at the log - where there just because of a copy-and-paste error
from the hunspell spell checker; the same is valid for the makefile.mk).

On Mac we normaly use the native Spell checker. You can switch to the
OOo Spellchecker if you want. For Language who are supportet by Apple it
would be not a big Problem. But remember that OOo supports more
languages as Apple.
