Looking for Java spell checker library [closed]

I am looking for an open source Java spell checking library which has dictionaries for at least the following languages: French, German, Spanish, and Czech. Any suggestion?

Solution 1:

Another good library is JLanguageTool http://www.languagetool.org/usage/ It has a pretty simple api and does both spelling and grammar checking/suggestions.

JLanguageTool langTool = new JLanguageTool(Language.AMERICAN_ENGLISH);
langTool.activateDefaultPatternRules();

List<RuleMatch> matches = langTool.check("Hitchhiker's Guide tot he Galaxy");
for (RuleMatch match : matches) {
    System.out.println("Potential error at line " +
        match.getEndLine() + ", column " +
        match.getColumn() + ": " + match.getMessage());
    System.out.println("Suggested correction: " +
        match.getSuggestedReplacements());
}

You can also use it to host your own spelling and grammar web service.

Solution 2:

You should check out Jazzy its used in some high profile Java applications. Two problems with it:

It has not been updated since 2005.
There is only English dictionary on their SourceForge page.

There are some third party dictionaries floating around. I had one for French, last time I used jazzy.

Solution 3:

Check out JSpell by Page Scholar, http://www.jspell.com.

Solution 4:

Another possible alternative is JOrtho http://jortho.sourceforge.net

I haven't used it yet, but I'm evaluating the current Java Open Source spellcheckers to figure out which one to use.
