To implement a database based user dictionary, or some othercustom user dictionary implementation, you are free to subclass thecom.keyoti.rapidSpell.UserDictionary class https://keyoti.com/products/rapidspell/javaweb/api/com/keyoti/rapidSpell/UserDictionary.html

Then in your inherited class you can override our methods to make it behave howyou wish, eg load the dictionary from your own source, or a database. Here isan empty implementation -

class CUserDictionary extendscom.keyoti.rapidSpell.UserDictionary
{
java.util.ArrayList wordList;
boolean valid = true;

public CUserDictionary(){
}

/** Tries to add <code>word</code> to thisdictionary
* @param word String containing the new word
* @return true if added successfully, false otherwise.
*/
public boolean addWord(String word){
return true;
}

/** Read the dictionary word list into <code>list</code>
* @param list the String arraylist that the word list will be read into.
* @return number of words in list.
*/
public int readAll(java.util.ArrayList list){
return 0;
}
/** Returns if the dictionary file is valid. */
public boolean isValid(){
return valid;
}

}

This class should then be set through the setUserDictionary(UserDictionary d)method in RapidSpellCheckerhttps://keyoti.com/products/rapidspell/javaweb/api/com/keyoti/rapidSpell/RapidSpellChecker.html#setUserDictionary(com.keyoti.rapidSpell.UserDictionary).

The RapidSpellChecker object is accessible through the UI components in thefollowing ways;

Using The CUserDictionary Class

If you are using the Javascript approach in version 4 up:

For Inline/As-you-type:

A. Create a page called rswihelper.jsp with this content

<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"pageEncoding="UTF-8" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://www.keyoti.com/"prefix="RapidSpellWeb" %>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN">
<html>
<title>Spell Check</title>

<%
com.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker rapidSpellChecker = newcom.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker(licenseKey);
rapidSpellChecker.setUserDictionary(new CUserDictionary());

%>
<body>
<center>
<RapidSpellWeb:rapidSpellWInlineHelpercheckerEngine="<%=rapidSpellChecker%>"
/>

</center>
</body>
</html>

B. To use the newly created page, call (in the pages using thespell checker)

rapidSpell.ayt_helperURL ="<path to>/rswihelper.jsp";

</script>

For Dialog:

A. Create a page called popup.jsp with this content

<%@ taglib uri="http://www.keyoti.com/" prefix="RapidSpellWeb" %>

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN">

<html>

<title>Spell Check</title>

<body>

<center>

<%
com.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker rapidSpellChecker = newcom.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker(licenseKey);
rapidSpellChecker.setUserDictionary(new CUserDictionary());

%>

<RapidSpellWeb:rapidSpellWeb licenseKey="<your license key here>"

checkerEngine="<%= rapidSpellChecker %>"/>

/>

</center>

</body>

</html>

B. To use the newly created page, call (in the pages using the spell checker)

<script type='text/javascript'>

rapidSpell.dialog_popupURL ="<path to>/popup.jsp";

</script>

If you are using the JSP Tag approach (all versions):

For Inline/As-you-type:

A. Create a page called rswihelper.jsp with this content

<%
com.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker rapidSpellChecker = newcom.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker(licenseKey);
rapidSpellChecker.setUserDictionary(new CUserDictionary());

%>
<body>
<center>
<RapidSpellWeb:rapidSpellWInlineHelper licenseKey="<your license key here>"

checkerEngine="<%=rapidSpellChecker%>"
/>

</center>
</body>
</html>

B. In your RapidSpellWeb:rapidSpellWInline tags add this attribute

rapidSpellWInlineHelperPage="rswihelper.jsp"

This will make the ajax call use the new JSP page and therefore your customuser dictionary class.

For Dialog:

A. Create a page called popup.jsp with this content

<%@ taglib uri="http://www.keyoti.com/" prefix="RapidSpellWeb" %>

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN">

<html>

<title>Spell Check</title>

<body>

<center>

<%
com.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker rapidSpellChecker = newcom.keyoti.rapidSpell.RapidSpellChecker(licenseKey);
rapidSpellChecker.setUserDictionary(new CUserDictionary());

%>

<RapidSpellWeb:rapidSpellWeb licenseKey="<your license key here>"

checkerEngine="<%= rapidSpellChecker %>"/>

/>

</center>

</body>

</html>

B. To use the newly created page, in the RapidSpellWebLauncher tag, set theattribute

RapidSpellWebPage="<pathto>/popup.jsp"
