Dear Nemeth,
From the changelog of hunspell-1.2.8, it seems that you are the main
developer of hunspell. I am probably going to integrate hunspell support
into LyX (www.lyx.org) as a possible alternative to aspell.
I have successfully ported the MSVC solution to MSVC2008Express (see patch
*2786512*
in sourceforge tracker) but I don't really know how the iconv and intl dependency is
handled in the Windows port. We maintain our own version of these
libraries for Windows and so we will probably do the same for hunspell
(and libmythes which we already use). Also please note that only the dll
compiles and link (I had to add replist to the project file).
I would like to use the C++ interface given by "hunspell.hxx" but it is
not so clean when compared to the C interface given by "hunspell.h".
Would you be open to a patch that put all implementation detail into a
Private class using pimpl idiom? I mean something like this:
class Hunspell
{
public:
/* Hunspell(aff, dic) - constructor of Hunspell class
* input: path of affix file and dictionary file
*/
Hunspell(const char * affpath, const char * dpath, const char * key =
NULL);
~Hunspell();
...
private:
struct Private;
Private * const d;
};
Then in the cxx file:
class Hunspell::Private
{
AffixMgr* pAMgr;
HashMgr* pHMgr[MAXDIC];
int maxdic;
SuggestMgr* pSMgr;
char * affixpath;
char * encoding;
struct cs_info * csconv;
int langnum;
int utf8;
int complexprefixes;
char** wordbreak;
...
};
Last question but not least:
It seems that there are no mailing list nor svn or cvs repository, are
there? Do you plan to add something like that for collaboration purpose?
Thanks in advance for any information.
On behalf of the LyX developers,
Abdel.
