No spell check with oXygen 9.1 in Eclipse

Post by GraydonAMD »

If I copy dicts.jar somewhere and unpack it, and then do grep -ri for "utf" in the unpacked directory tree, I get no hits. All the languages appear to be represented as ISO versions.

Since we work purely in UTF-8, I suspect that the problem is that there's no dictionary for the combination of, say, English and UTF-8, but even if this is the case I have no idea what to do about it.

This happens on Eclipse 3.3.1.1 and oXygen 9.1, on both Windows and Linux.

Suggestions?

Thanks!
Graydon

Hello,

For UTF-8 you need a dictionary created with the UTF-8 encoding. All the built-in dictionaries have the ISO 8859-1 encoding. You can build a dictionary with a tool that you find here as you can read in the user manual.
