Android Text-To-Speech(TTS)

Here is a simple example to try out the Text-to-Speech feature in android. It's very simple to just invoke the text to speech engine. Here's the main snippet.

001	// success, create the TTS instance

002	mTts = new TextToSpeech(this, this);

003

004

005	String language = (String) languageSelector.getSelectedItem();

006	if (languageSelector.getSelectedItemId() == 0) {

007	mTts.setLanguage(Locale.ENGLISH);

008

} else {

009	mTts.setLanguage(localeMap.get(language));

010

}

011	String text = textToConvert.getText().toString();

013	if (text == null) {

014	text = "please select the language and enter any text";

015

}

016	mTts.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);

017

Here's how it looks!!
