Question

I am using Eclipse, Kepler version.

How do I disable the spell checking inside comments?

I do see "Window | Preferences | General | Editors | Text Editors | Spelling", but this sheet has no option about disabling spell checking inside comments.

Ideally, I would like to disable spell checking for a specific comment.

In other places spell checking comments can be useful.

Additionally, I did see the other referenced solution, which I am using and did use, but I did not want to disable spell checking for good. I wanted to turn off spell checking in certain situations but leave it on for others. That was addressed in a comment, so if the negative vote was because my question was addressed elsewhere, then it was not.

Was it helpful?

Solution

There is not a way to turn off spell checking for a comment. You've either got words in there or you don't. You can, however, add what's been flagged as a misspelling to your own user dictionary, in which case that particular word will be ignored.

OTHER TIPS

You can disable spell checking:

Window->Preferences :: General->Editor->Text Editors->Spelling,
uncheck the box "Enable spell checking"

Hover over the spell-checked comment, then scroll down to and click "Disable spell checking".
