2025.2 EAP: cannot resolve extension point 'com.intellij.spellchecker.bundledDictionaryProvider' in dependencies

IntelliJ Platform
1

After upgrading my plugin to 2025.2 EAP, I am faced with an error:

Cannot resolve extension point 'com.intellij.spellchecker.bundledDictionaryProvider' in dependencies

Editor can only find CssBundledDictionaryProvider and CssSpellcheckingStrategy classes from the com.intellij.spellchecker package.

Any solutions?

This took me a while to figure out … in your build.gradle.kts file (or equivalent) add the following in the modules that need the spellchecker module:

dependencies {
    intellijPlatform {
        bundledModule("intellij.spellchecker")
    }
}

I’m not sure why the intellij gradle plugin isn’t picking this up automatically like other bundled modules (vcs, grazie, etc.).

It probably happened because the code has been extracted to a platform module in IJPL-189900

You’re right, sorry for the trouble. I’ve updated Incompatible API Changes page to mention this and similar changes.
