JSAPI JS_ValueToString??

Hi i tried to change the dllcomputesum example for cs3,
because i need to send a string from jsfl to the dll, but i stuck
at this JS_ValueToString..
unsigned short *myString;
myString = JS_ValueToBytes(cx, argv[0],
&lengthReal);//lengthReal is the "yet" hardcoded length of the
string.
but this puts out the C++ warning :
warning C4133: ':': Incompatible types - from 'char *' to
'unsigned short *'
can someone help me or has an example for me, i can´t
find any samples, only one from dreamweaver where JS_valueToString
uses different arguments.
or may someone could explain me why i get a pointer to the
string back but need to use a pointer to a unsigned short for
myString.
here ist what JS_ValueToString should return.:
Returns
A pointer that points to a null-terminated string if
successful or to a null value on failure. The calling routine must
not free this string when it finishes.
iam confused, may someone can help me?
greetz

no one ever used JS-ValueToString? or even c-lexel
extenibilty?

JSAPI - other languages than English; MIDlet - settings loading; JSAPI - al

Hello!
I need to create application which uses speech recognition. At first I thought about using CMU Sphinx (PocketSphinx or, possibly, Sphinx4). Later I thought about JSAPI. (Sphinx somehow uses JSAPI but I don't know what is the difference between JSAPI and Sphinx).
I have read almost all (up to 6.7.9) of the following tutorial: http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/speech/forDevelopers/jsapi-guide.pdf. Unfortunately I couldn't've found one important thing, i.e. how to create acoustic model for other language than English?
Thanks in advance for your answers :-)!
PS There are some other things which I'd like to know:
1) How to load some settings from file (I guess nowadays configuration files are created with the use of XML but I dunno)?
2) How to maintain algorithm which is used by MIDlet which involves JSAPI? I mean there are some different things which my MIDlet needs to do. I guess it is good habit to divide different goals into separate parts of code (due to object-oriented programming).
     In my case there are some different things:
     a) speech recognition of audio input, i.e. changing input audio stream into output text string
     b) analysis of that text string and according to this string choosing the proper transition in my algorithm
     In general I have written my algorithm on sheet of paper and it takes about ten A4 sheets of paper. Because of it I thought there should be some way to write this algoritm maybe outside the code, in some kind of file which would contain this algorithm. Maybe there is other good way to implement this algorithm, not necesarilly in the code.
     c) sending of results through httpconnection with the use of POST method
     d) receiving in on TomCat on server
3) Which method should I use to receive the recognized speech? I found these:
     a) FinalRuleResult, b) Result -> getBestToken, c) getSpokenText, d) ResultToken of RuleGrammar
4) Can you give me any full examples of JSAPI usage? (Not just short parts of code like in this JSAPI guide)?
Greetins :-)!

Praveen, Yes the infoobject is language dependent. The problem did not happen in BWQ but came up in BWP. so I am not sure at this time what is causing in production that didn't happen in BWQ.
Thanks,
Syed.

Classpath Problem (Using JSAPI)

Hi,
I using IBM Via Voice as a the implementation of the JSAPI on my system. I've downloaded the speech for java pack from IBM Alphaworks and put it in the directory of
c:\ibmjs
This gives you access to the speech packages for utilisation in your programs so I should be able to import javax.speech in my programs. However the system doesn't see these classes.
Heres my Autoexec...
path=%path%;c:\jdk1.3.1_01\bin;c:\ibmjs\lib;
CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;c:\ibmjs\lib\ibmjs.jar;
I presume the whole thing is just a classpath problem, does anybody have any idea from the above paths where I am going wrong?

i guess you have to put some of ibm's dll files coming with speech for java in the path (not classpath). it's not sufficient to have the directories in the path.
anyway, there come's an installation manual with speech for java which explaines all that.

JSAPI, speech output to file ???

Hi all,
I am not new to Java but using JSAPI first time, I have downloaded an example code which takes an Ascii string and speek accordingly, which can be hear on headphone. This code is working fine.
Now I would like to know that how can I get spoken output to a file, I mean I want to store voice to a file (WAV or any format) generated by the system.
Looking for your response,

you'll have a large amount of reading to be done, alot in the topic but
java provide an example program with source code.
there is audio recording capabilities in this. so once ya sort of the
audio capture you could add it as a method and record your
speech ouput.

JSAPI Recognition won't run twice

I'm working on an implementation of JSAPI's Recognition. 'listen' method is invoked through a web service and it runs fine for the first time. When I run it for a second time it looks like I've got two engines allocated (though I deallocate it) because everything is displayed 2 times. Then the app crashes and blocks a port. When it is run for the third time I displays everything three times and an exception is thrown due to a blocked port. I tried to use both the same Recognizer object for every 'listen' method call and creating a new object for every invocation (the output below is the second case). It doesn't help either when I use different ports for other invocations. When I restart the server it again works only once. So what I think the problem is I am not deallocating or closing sources properly. I think it is JSAPI problem but could also be RTP. Please help.
I use Cloud Garden's JSAPI implementation.

JSAPI : Problems with the speech recognition HelloWorld example

I just started off with JSAPI. And I immediately ran into problems. These are the configurations and the stuff I did:
My system:
OS: WinXP
JDK: JDK 6 Update 10
IDE: Netbeans 6.0
I downloaded the FreeTTS.zip from the FreeTTS site [http://freetts.sourceforge.net/docs/index.php] . I expanded it and in the lib folder I ran the jsapi.exe and as a result jsapi.jar war generated.
I included this jar in my project lib as jar.
Then I copy pasted HelloWorld speech recognition example code given in the site : [http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/speech/forDevelopers/jsapi-guide/Recognition.html#11644]
First it gave a compile time error that
rec.deallocate();throws an exception which needs to be handled. Accordingly I surrounded it with a try catch block and caught the exceptions in the manner given below:
   try{
         rec.deallocate();
                    System.exit(0);
                } catch (EngineException ex) {
                    Logger.getLogger(HelloWorld.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
                } catch (EngineStateError ex) {
                    Logger.getLogger(HelloWorld.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
Now the code was compiling without problems.
When I executed the code a runtime exception (NullPointerException) was thrown at the line
      rec.allocate(); in the psvm(String args[])
Can anybody please explain to me where I am going wrong? Or is there something more that needs to be added in the code?
Anxiously waiting to hear from your end.
Thanks and regards,

Hi All,
I am using following code

J2ME and JSAPI 2.0

Hi everyone,
How do i use JSAPI 2.0 in J2ME and if possible show me some examples.
Thanx in advance.

Currently JSAPI is not working well for j2me

JSAPI and MBROLA

I'm playing with a speech synthesizer program and I've got it working with FreeTTS just fine.
Of course I want to try some better voices so I'm trying to get MBROLA working and that's where I run into problems. I'm trying to test it using the Player demo program that comes with FreeTTS. I invoke it with this command line:
java -Dmbrola.base="C:\Program Files\Mbrola Tools" -cp Player.jar;jsapi.jar;freetts.jar Player
The player comes up and the following voices are displayed in the Voice ComboBox:
kevin
kevin16
mbrola_us1
mbrola_us2
mbrola_us3
As long as I only select kevin or kevin16 it all works fine but if I select any of the MBROLA voices I get this stack trace:
Exception in thread "Thread-4" java.lang.Error: No audio data read
at de.dfki.lt.freetts.mbrola.MbrolaCaller.processUtterance(MbrolaCaller.java:134)
at com.sun.speech.freetts.Voice.runProcessor(Voice.java:557)

at com.sun.speech.freetts.jsapi.FreeTTSSynthesizer$OutputHandler.run(FreeTTSSynthesizer.java:632)
Obviously I'm running on Windows but according to what I've read this is supposed to work on Windows.
Any ideas?

I don't know anything about that book or about MBROLA; you might want to contact
the author of the book.
But to set a system property when running a Java app, you typically pass a "-D"
argument on the command line, or in the Eclipse launch configuration. For
instance, -Dmbrola.base or -Dmbrola.base=whatever .

Jsapi speehc synthesizer and recognizer

Hello friends, Have any one of u done a project on speech synthesizer and recognizer using jsapi and Freetts...???

(contd..) to previous thread step5
//testing
u can find so many examples in the net though iam giving one below!!
Class name is Main.java
code follows
package tts; // my package
import java.util.Locale;
import javax.speech.Central;
import javax.speech.synthesis.Synthesizer;
import javax.speech.synthesis.SynthesizerModeDesc;
import javax.speech.synthesis.Voice;

SynthesizerModeDesc desc = new SynthesizerModeDesc(
null, // engine name
"general", // mode name
Locale.US, // locale

System.out.println("--2--");
Synthesizer synthesizer = Central.createSynthesizer(desc);

System.exit(1);
System.out.println("--4--");

/* Choose the voice.
desc = (SynthesizerModeDesc) synthesizer.getEngineModeDesc();
Voice[] voices = desc.getVoices();
Voice voice = null;
System.out.println("Length :" + voices.length);
for (int i = 0; i < voices.length; i++) {
if (voices.getName().equals(voiceName)) {
voice = voices[i];
System.out.println("voice " + voice);
break;
if (voice == null) {
System.err.println(

System.exit(1);
synthesizer.getSynthesizerProperties().setVoice(voice);
System.out.println("going 2 play");

* complete.
//synthesizer.speakPlainText("Hello world!,iam vijay testing Freetts", null);
String str = new String("heloo world");
System.out.println("String is ....: " + str);
synthesizer.speakPlainText(str, null);
synthesizer.waitEngineState(Synthesizer.QUEUE_EMPTY);
/* Clean up and leave.
synthesizer.deallocate();
System.exit(0);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
// TODO code application logic here
@Override
protected Object clone() throws CloneNotSupportedException {
return super.clone();
@Override

return super.equals(obj);
@Override

super.finalize();
@Override

return super.hashCode();
@Override

here we are using Kelvin16 as voice type..
still u have any problem during the running ... let me know

Jsapi supports phones?

what are the phones that the jsapi can support??? i really need your help guys. im working on a voice command application using java. i wanted to know the api that will support my project. thanks in advance guys.

Currently the javafx is not so much stable so that mobile companies would keep it. I think the javafx 2.0 may be sign of good stability of javafx.
Thanks.

Help with JSAPI and JSGF

Hi, i'm working with JSAPI using a JSGF dictionary, the Speech Recognition works fine with the words of the dictionary, but when I say a different word to the saved in the dictionary, JSAPI recognizes them as the word that most closely matches the dictionary, and I need to simply not recognize them, thanks a lot for the help.

Hello,
The dictionary has many many words in it.
You should edit your grammar in order to limit the answers you get as Best_Match_Result.
Also you could add your own words in the dictionary by creating the extra words. In order to do that you should be limited and use the sounds as they are already written in the dictionary. (eg there is on OO sound, but OW) I am not sure if you can add your extra own sounds but you could try it :)
Hope this help,
Marios

Simple jsapi (speech) application

Hello!
I read the tutorial at http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/speech/forDevelopers/jsapi-guide/index.html and tried to create a recognizer with this code:
import javax.speech.*;
import javax.speech.recognition.*;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.util.Locale;
public class HelloWorld2 extends ResultAdapter {
static Recognizer rec;
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
// Create a recognizer that supports English.
rec = Central.createRecognizer(
new EngineModeDesc(Locale.ENGLISH));
// Start up the recognizer
rec.allocate();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Compiling works, but running it the nullpointerexception occurs at line 16, the line "rec.allocate();"
why is that so?
thank you.

oh, sorry. it seems i didn't read well enough.
hmmm the Speech SDK 5.1 for Windows from MS is "JSAPI-compliant", isn't it?
Is there any free recognizer available supporting the german language?

JSAPI: How can I edit a button symbol?

Hi,
I have written an export script for Flash CS3 using the
Javascript API, and now I want to port it to Fireworks CS3. The
first problem I ran into was that I could not access a button
symbol's state frames via script - the closest I get is up to the
Instance object, but I could not access the frames or layers
inside. I used a for-each-loop to trace all of the Instance
object's properties but did not find anything that could have
helped me.
Then I had another idea: I noticed that unlike Flash,
Fireworks opens button symbols as a new document when I edit them.
And the Fireworks Document object does indeed have a property
called "isSymbolDocument" that returns true if a document "is a
symbol-editing window."
But once again I stumbled upon a problem, namely that I did
not manage to find a "symbol editing command" (the equivalent to
double-clicking it) in the Javascript API. :(
I'd be grateful for any hints, maybe there is even a much
easier way to access button symbol states?
Greetings,
Jochen

I'm not sure if I fully understand your question, but I'll give a shot at what I think it is. If you want a button that can be pressed so that its states go from
"on, off, red., on, off, red." etc. you will have to use a bit of trickery. In this case it is best to use a picture ring to give the controls the image you want and place a boolean button OVER the ring control. Make the boolean control completly transparent, resize it to cover the entire picture ring, and make sure the boolean is ABOVE the ring by using "move to front". You will then have to have a loop checking the boolean button for a press, and then modify the pic ring accordingly and take your "control value" off of the pic ring. I'd suggest finding a work-around if you can, as this is a lot of work to go
through.

Question about JSAPI

Hello everybody. I'm trying to develop a new Text to Speech application using Java Speech API. I was wondering if it is possible to integrate new voices in one of the available implementations, because I want to add support for the Romanian language to my app. And if somebody has done it, I'd like to receive some details, about how did he/she do it. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bogdan.

Hi,
I am using Freetts and want to do the same thing as you described in your post. I have tried the: freettsVoice.setAudioPlayer(new SingleFileAudioPlayer()); many times; however, it does not produce any audio files.
On the contrary, I can easily produce audio files from the command line using -dumpAudio
Do you have an example on how to do that please and where do you write the file name and path when using the SingleFileAudioPlayer()?
Any help will be very much appreciated.
