| <p>Provides classes that allow you to create spell checkers in a manner similar to the |
| input method framework (for IMEs).</p> |
| |
| <p>To create a new spell checker, you must implement a service that extends {@link |
| android.service.textservice.SpellCheckerService} and extend the {@link |
| android.service.textservice.SpellCheckerService.Session} class to provide spelling suggestions based |
| on text provided by the interface's callback methods. In the {@link |
| android.service.textservice.SpellCheckerService.Session} callback methods, you must return the |
| spelling suggestions as {@link android.view.textservice.SuggestionsInfo} objects. </p> |
| |
| <p>Applications with a spell checker service must declare the {@link |
| android.Manifest.permission#BIND_TEXT_SERVICE} permission as required by the service. The service |
| must also declare an intent filter with {@code <action |
| android:name="android.service.textservice.SpellCheckerService" />} as the intent’s action and should |
| include a {@code <meta-data>} element that declares configuration information for the spell |
| checker. For example:</p> |
| |
| <pre> |
| <service |
| android:label="@string/app_name" |
| android:name=".SampleSpellCheckerService" |
| android:permission="android.permission.BIND_TEXT_SERVICE" > |
| <intent-filter > |
| <action android:name="android.service.textservice.SpellCheckerService" /> |
| </intent-filter> |
| <meta-data |
| android:name="android.view.textservice.scs" |
| android:resource="@xml/spellchecker" /> |
| </service> |
| </pre> |
| |
| <p>For example code, see the sample <a |
| href="{@docRoot}resources/samples/SpellChecker/SampleSpellCheckerService/index.html">Spell |
| Checker service</a> app, and the sample <a |
| href="{@docRoot}resources/samples/SpellChecker/HelloSpellChecker/index.html">Spell |
| Checker client</a> app.</p> |
