Hi Isaac,
Thanks for your reply. I actually found this little helloworld freeTTS example
online:
http://processing.org/discourse/yabb_beta/YaBB.cgi?board=Sound;action=display;num=1204335245
I want to write a simple HelloWorld example in ColdFusion. I've got all the jar
files I need.
cmudict04.jar
cmulex.jar
cmutimelex.jar
cmu_time_awb.jar
cmu_us_kal.jar
en_us.jar
freetts.jar
jsapi.jar
would you be albe to show me how to do this in ColdFusion please?
Your help on this matter is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
John

I'm not the most knowledgeable expert with regard to Java, but this just
looks to me like it was written by someone with Java experience, who
didn't bother to even test anything in ColdFusion and instead simply
assumed (wrongly) that everything in CF would work exactly the way he's
used to things working in Java... blech...
Random guess (I haven't tried this), replace the entire 3 lines with
this:
VMInstance = CreateObject("java","com.sun.speech.freetts.VoiceManager");
Then set Application.VoiceManager6 to that.
The extra classes he created look to me like classes that are probably
instantiated automatically by CreateObject(), so using CreateObject to
instantiate them would be (I believe) just doubling up on those classes
and actually slowing them down, since you would be reflecting the
reflection. That's just a guess, but that's what it looks like to me.

FreeTTS API implementation doesn't work in ColdFusion7
Hello everybody, I want to use the FreeTTS API to allow people with disabilies to have a better experience. I have been looking at this example which shows how to call it in ColdFusion (Please look at the second example titled: FreeTTS CFC): http://www.cfide.org/Text_to_Speech_Example_page.cfm Unfortuanately you can't copy it as it is an image. I've typed in the first 3 lines of code: I've copied the freetts.jar file which you can donwload from here (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/freetts/freetts-1.2.1-bin.zip?modtime=1110396608&big_mirror=0), to my lib folder (C:\ColdFusionMX\lib) and it is in the coldfusion class-path. When I run the above code, I get an error: "The selected method newInstance was not found. Either there are no methods with the specified method name and argument types, or the method newInstance is overloaded with arguments types that ColdFusion can't decipher reliably. If this is a Java object and you verified that the method exists, you may need to use the javacast function to reduce ambiguity. " Does anyone know why this is?
