public static IWarningCallback WarningCallback { get; set; }

Examples

Shows how to open and register a dictionary from a file.

    // Set up a callback that tracks warnings that occur during hyphenation dictionary registration.
    WarningInfoCollection warningInfoCollection = new WarningInfoCollection();
    Hyphenation.WarningCallback = warningInfoCollection;

    Stream dictionaryStream = new FileStream(MyDir + "hyph_en_US.dic", FileMode.Open);
    Hyphenation.RegisterDictionary("en-US", dictionaryStream);

    Assert.AreEqual(0, warningInfoCollection.Count);

    // Open a document with a locale that Microsoft Word may not hyphenate on an English machine, such as German.
    Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "German text.docx");

    // To hyphenate that document upon saving, we need a hyphenation dictionary for the "de-CH" language code.
    // This callback will handle the automatic request for that dictionary.
    Hyphenation.Callback = new CustomHyphenationDictionaryRegister();

    // When we save the document, German hyphenation will take effect.
    doc.Save(ArtifactsDir + "Hyphenation.RegisterDictionary.pdf");

    // This dictionary contains two identical patterns, which will trigger a warning.
