Why Applespell.service fail to launch?
-
Our application use Mac OS X spell checker service to do spell check.
here is sample code . [[NSSpellChecker sharedSpellChecker]
checkSpellingOfString:@"hello" startingAt:0];
But the problem is AppleSpell.service can not launch automatically by
this code, so there is always an alert: couldn't contact spell checker!
I try other applications (Openoffice.org, textEdit ) and they both can
launch AppleSpell.service automatically, I think it means, nothing
wrong on my machine.
Who can tell me how to force AppleSpell.service to launch? or is there
a way to check why AppleSpell.service fail to launch?
Thanks in advance! -

This code works just fine for me:
NSLog(@"%@", NSStringFromRange([[NSSpellChecker
sharedSpellChecker] checkSpellingOfString: @"hello, hwo are you
today?" startingAt: 0]));
Which prints '{7, 3}', as expected. I'll go out on a limb and guess
that you're trying to access the spell checker from an atypical
context. Is this code failing in a bread-and-butter Cocoa app launched
from the Finder? Or are you doing something fancy like, say, writing a
launchd daemon or agent or something other than a 'normal' Cocoa app?

Hi, Dave,
Thanks for your response. This sample code normally works well in most
cases.
Is Applespell.service launched by [[NSSpellChecker sharedSpellChecker] ? or
launched automatically by a NSTextView?
I guess the problem in our application might be caused by library conflict
but I do not know how to check it. Our application is a normal cocoa app.
