For example, the language \c en-US will load the \c en-US.bdic
dictionary file.
- Qt WebEngine checks for the \c qtwebengine_dictionaries subdirectory
- first in the local directory and if it is not found, in the Qt
- installation directory.
-
- On macOS, depending on how Qt WebEngine is configured at build time, there are two possibilities
- how spellchecking data is found:
-
- \list
- \li Hunspell dictionaries (default) - .bdic dictionaries are used, just like on other
- platforms
- \li Native dictionaries - the macOS spellchecking APIs are used (which means the results
- will depend on the installed OS dictionaries)
- \endlist
-
- Thus, in the macOS Hunspell case, Qt WebEngine will look in the \e qtwebengine_dictionaries
- subdirectory located inside the application bundle \c Resources directory, and also in the
- \c Resources directory located inside the Qt framework bundle.
-
- To summarize, in case of Hunspell usage, the following paths are considered:
-
- \list
- \li QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath()/qtwebengine_dictionaries
- or QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath()/../Contents/Resources/qtwebengine_dictionaries
- (on macOS)
- \li [QLibraryInfo::DataPath]/qtwebengine_dictionaries
- or path/to/QtWebEngineCore.framework/Resources/qtwebengine_dictionaries (Qt framework
- bundle on macOS)
- \endlist
+ See the \l {Spellchecker}{Spellchecker feature documentation} for how
+ dictionary files are searched.
