public void checkDocument(java.io.Reader in,
                 java.io.InputStream input,
                 java.io.Writer out)

Interactively spell checks a given document. Internally, it should use a TokenScanner to parse the document. Word tokens that are not in the dictionary should be corrected; non-word tokens and words that are in the dictionary should be output verbatim. This SpellChecker's dictionary and corrector (dict and corr) should be used in this method.

You may assume all of the inputs to this method are non-null.

Parameters:

in - The source document to spell check

input - An InputStream from which user input is obtained

out - The target document to which the corrected output is written

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if error while reading
