the perspective is really irrelevant; what kind of editor (what file
extension) are you trying it in? I don't think every type of editor
supports spell checking.

Then you're using the CFEclipse editor (or .cfm editor if you want to
call it that). Most likely you'll have to ask on the CFEclipse forums,
since it is code provided by that project (not provided by any
Eclipse.org project).
One thing you can try just to verify that it is CFEclipse's problem: try
creating a .txt file and open that; then type in some mis-spelled words
and see if they are highlighted as expected. If it works in the .txt
file, then your problem is with CFEclipse and you can ask about it on
their forums.
Hope this helps,
Eric

In that case has something said not to highlight them? Go to the
General...Editors..Text Editors..Annotations preference page and
make sure that Spelling Errors are set to be shown.

Well, strictly speaking the perspective is irrelevant. It is the editor,
and Gwen has not yet confirmed that this happens in a plain .txt file,
as I suggested.

Same here, I never use Spell Check.
One more idea from me: if it can be confirmed to not work in a .txt file
(again, it is the file type that matters, NOT the perspective), the next
thing would be to open the Error Log view and see if there is anything
related being logged about it.

Hi Gwen,
A few quick questions relating to your spell checking problem.
1. What platform are you running eclipse?
2. Which release of eclipse?
3. What is the encoding of the spell check file set to?

Just to make sure - the setting that Nitin mentioned is different than the
one that you mentioned in your first post.
You mentioned:
Window > Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors > Spelling
Nitin mentioned:
Window > Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors > Annotations
What he's suggesting is that even if spell checking is enabled, its output
might not be getting displayed, if the annotations are invisible for some
reason (e.g., set to a bad color).
For what it's worth, I did just try defining a user-defined dictionary. It
worked for me (e.g., with a dictionary containing only the words "foo",
"bar", and "baz" each on a separate line, when I typed comments, all the
words except those would be commented). However, I think it did not
recompute the spelling when I changed the dictionary - I had to actually
edit the file to see the changes. I didn't try reproducing that.
To get common words to show up as misspelled, I also had to unselect the
"English (US)" platform dictionary, in the Spelling prefs pane, and select
"none".

Hi Gwen,
I have another question.
While you are in the java perspective and are editing a java file.
If you try to place a misspelling in any of the comments sections of the
class file are the misspellings underlined?
eg.
package test
/**
* This is a comment with a misspelling
* bananasx
*/
public class Atest {
}

This is already fixed in the JSDT branch for the Helios release.

I am using Helios. The funny thing is that spell check work with python files but with nothing else.
The most bizarre is that if I do [crtl .] it autocomplete the words! So, hey there, it knows about the words but it simply doesn't want to underlined the misspelled words???
