Hello,

Cppcheck reports this :
[spelldsp.hxx:138]: (error) Possible null pointer dereference: pCache -
otherwise it is redundant to check if pCache is null at line 136

Here are the lines :
     134 inline linguistic::SpellCache&  SpellCheckerDispatcher::GetCache()
const
     135 {
     136     if (!pCache)
     137         ((SpellCheckerDispatcher *) this)->pCache = new
linguistic::SpellCache();
     138     return *pCache;
     139 }

Here is a simple (naive ?) patch

diff --git a/linguistic/source/spelldsp.hxx b/linguistic/source/spelldsp.hxx

Is it ok ?

It looks wrong to me, i'm really not into C++ but it seems ((SpellCheckerDispatcher *) this)->pCache should be the same pCache you are dereferencing later. In any case you should not return NULL if pCache is something else, no?

What about this?

if (pCache)
   return *pCache;

return ((SpellCheckerDispatcher *) this)->pCache = new linguistic::SpellCache();

cheers,
