Re: Re: Some Open Source libraries about hyphenation_ChenXiajian

I try to use libhyphenate to implement the hyphenation. And then refer to the source code of libhyphenate.
In libhyphenate, it is easy to carry out the hyphenation.

#include <libhyphenate\Hyphenator.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace Hyphenate;
using namespace std;
int main () {
   cout << "The hyphenation of the english word example is: "
        << Hyphenator(RFC_3066::Language("en")).hyphenate("example") << endl;
   return 0;
}


now, I read the source code of libhyphenate to find what we can refer to libhyphenate.

Thank you very much!

Hi!
I have not used libhyphenate.
But have been trying to integrate the 'hunspell' dictionaries for
hyphenation. What do you say? Have you worked with them?

Libhyphenate implements the hyphenation algorithm also used by the Tex layout system. The library currently supports hyphenation libraries for English, German and French. More languages can be generated from the corresponding Tex files.
