I'm in the process of testing a spellchecker for Burmese. One of the
issues I've come across is that multidigit numbers like ၁၂ (12) show up
with a red underline underneath.
I've looked at the spellchecking code and it seems that spelling errors
are discarded if BOOL HasDigits( const String &rText ) in
linguistic/source/misc.cxx returns true. However, HasDigits only checks
for the digits 0-9 and not digits in other scripts. Would it not be
better to make this method return true for all characters with the
Unicode property Nd?
When the method is used in spellchecking it is in the context:
(!rHelper.IsSpellWithDigits() && HasDigits( rWord ))
(see lingucomponent/source/spellcheck/spell/sspellimp.cxx for example)
so I assume that rHelper.IsSpellWithDigits() will correctly return true
for any dictionary that wants to check words with digits.
I've tried a patch that should fix this generically and tested it for
Burmese. Should I submit this as an issue or is there a reason that
HasDigits doesn't check for digits in other scripts?
Regards,
Keith
