Initiates a speech synthesis process.
DWORD saiSpeakSynthesizer ( SAI_SYNTHESIZER_HANDLE synthHd, SAI_SPEAK_DATA_TYPE dataType, void *data, SAI_REQUEST_ID *requestId )
|
Argument |
Description |
|
synthHd |
Handle associated with a synthesizer resource. |
|
dataType |
Payload data type. The following list shows supported speak data types and their associated numeric values:
|
|
data |
Pointer to the payload to play. This argument can consist of a URL, an XML document, a created speak grammar list, or plain text. |
|
requestId |
Pointer to a unique identifier associated with the request. |
|
Return value |
Description |
|
SUCCESS |
|
|
SAIERR_ENGINE_NOT_READY |
Specified synthesizer engine is not ready to handle the request. |
|
SAIERR_INVALID_PARAMETER |
One of the specified arguments is invalid. |
|
SAIERR_LIST_EMPTY |
Speak list contains no item. |
|
SAIERR_LIST_NOT_INITIALIZED |
Specified speak list is not initialized. This error is only returned when datatype is SAI_SPEAK_DATA_TYPE_DATA_LIST. |
|
Event |
Description |
|
SAIEVN_TTS_SPEAK_ACKNOWLEDGED |
Request was accepted and is being processed. Status code is indicated in the statusCode field of the SAIEVN_TTS_SPEAK_ACKNOWLEDGED event buffer. |
|
SAIEVN_TTS_SPEAK_DONE |
If the speech server successfully processes the command, the application receives this event indicating that the request is completed. The completion cause is returned in the completionCause field of the SAIEVN_TTS_SPEAK_DONE event buffer. |
|
SAIEVN_TTS_SPEAK_MARKER_REACHED |
Unsolicited event that may be returned by the synthesizer when markers are included into the speech data. The marker is returned in the SAIEVN_TTS_SPEAK_MARKER_REACHED event buffer. |
If the synthesizer is actively processing data or is paused when it receives the speech synthesis request, the synthesizer accepts the request. The SAI service returns an event indicating that the request status is PENDING. Otherwise, the event indicates the request status is IN_PROGRESS.
