Re: [Mono-list] Use Espeak In Mono

[Diego Frata]

I never heard of any Mono/.NET managed wrappers for eSpeak. But since eSpeak
is a cross-platform library developed with C++, you can write a managed
wrapper for it and it should work fine with Mono.

If you're willing to write a managed wrapper for it and need some samples to
help you out, you can check the source code of Mono.Cairo (which is a
managed wrapper of libcairo that's inside mcs/class/Mono.Cairo). It's very
simple and well done.

[Mono-list] Use Espeak In Mono

[ubunturocks]

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knew how to use espeak in Mono (C#). eSpeak is a
compact open source software speech synthesizer for English and other
languages. Could someone post a simple example of how to use it? (I am
trying to get it to run on Mac/Linux).
Thanks.

He was clarifying what MonoOSC was; he wasn't familiar with the
project (I assume).

You won't be using HAL directly though. By connecting to DBus and listening for 
events there you 
will separate yourself from whatever backend is being used by DBus to generate 
and deliver the 
notifications (right now it's HAL, tomorrow it might be something else - you 
won't care).

Re: [Mono-list] USB hardware detection using Mono on Linux

[Danny Haak]

Hi,

That seems like a good approach, but on the HAL site it states that "HAL
is in maintenance mode - no new features are added. All future
development focuses on Software/DeviceKit-disks,
Software/DeviceKit-power, NetworkManager, PulseAudio, udev, ... " [1].
Therefore, it seems not a good idea to me to use it in new software.

Best regards,
Danny

I believe you can attach to the system D-BUS and you will receive HAL
events.

[Mono-list] ANN: Divan, a C# library for CouchDB

[Göran Krampe]

Hi all!

I just joined this list and would like to point out the availability of 
Divan:

http://github.com/foretagsplatsen/Divan/tree/master
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Getting_started_with_C%23

There are some small issues with it on Mono that I would possibly like 
some help in straightening out, two unit tests fail (IIRC) and this 
seems to be due to the use of HEAD requests (changing to GET makes them 
work just fine) which works fine in .Net on Win32. Some kind of timeout 
occurring.

The other issue is that one needs to use Newtonsoft.JSON compiled on 
Mono (and not just a dll compiled in VS2008) I think.

I need to figure out how to get a proper latest Mono/Monodevelop running 
on my Ubuntu to verify that the HEAD problem is still an issue in latest 
Mono, any pointer on that would be helpful.

regards, Göran "Mono n00b" Krampe

[Mono-list] USB hardware detection using Mono on Linux

[Danny Haak]

Hi all,

I am currently writing a piece of software that needs to detect which
USB devices are attached to the computer. Event-based notifications of
attaching and detaching hardware while the software is running is nice,
but not required.

I first used DeviceKit-Sharp (by Ben Gamari), but when observing a bug
and asking the DeviceKit mailing-list, Kay Sievers answered: "The
DeviceKit daemon is dead and will not run, or be installed on any usual
system. You need to use libudev, or the GUdev to retrieve this
information." This is a pity, because DeviceKit was working nicely,
despite the bug in the daemon.

I can't find any Mono-bindings for libudev, and diving deeper in the
documentation, libudev seems quite low-level and talking to HAL. Looking
for HAL abstractions, I discovered that HAL will be obsolete as well in
the near future. This leaves me completely confused about 'the way to
go' for hardware detection in Mono on Linux. Is there anybody who can
suggest a (sort of) future-proof approach to this?

Thanks, best regards,
Danny Haak
