Hi, I've been told that I can use sample dictionary in the documentation for the UseSpeechDictionary function in the Speech Synthesis Manager Reference, but I don't seem to be able to get it to work. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong would be a great help.
Below is the code that I am using to read the dictionary from a XML file speechSynth = [[NSSpeechSynthesizer alloc] initWithVoice:@"com.apple.speech.synthesis.voice.Alex"]; [speechSynth autorelease]; NSDictionary *myDictionary = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:@"/Users/david/Desktop/Test%20speech/SpeechDictionary/myDictionary"]; [speechSynth addSpeechDictionary:myDictionary]; [speechSynth startSpeakingString:@"Welcome to Ballina."]; The contains of the file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>ModificationDate</key> <string>2006-12-21 11:59:25 -0800</string> <key>Pronunciations</key> <array> <dict> <key>Phonemes</key> <string>AE_hEY_yUW</string> <key>Spelling</key> <string>Ballina</string> </dict> <dict> <key>Phonemes</key> <string>AE_hEY_yUW</string> <key>Spelling</key> <string>Hello</string> </dict> </array> <key>Abbreviations</key> <array> <dict> <key>Phonemes</key> <string>_OW_sAEkz</string> <key>Spelling</key> <string>OSAX</string> </dict> </array> </dict> </plist> Regards, Dave. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
