Detect end of Speak in freeTTS for java


I am using freeTTS library for converting text to speech. I am able to program my code using this library where i can play the speech for a particular text using following code:

Voice voice = VoiceManager.getInstance().getVoice("kevin16");
if (voice != null) {
    voice.allocate();
}
voice.speak("Hello world");

Is there a way using which i can get a callback when the tts lib has completed the speak process?


Solution

  • I found the answer myself.. we don't need a callback when the lib has completed the speak process. the control goes on the next line only when speak process ends.

    that's how i did it:

        Thread t = new Thread() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                super.run();
                try {
                voice = initializeTTS(); // a func to initialize TTS lib.
                voice.speak("Hello world");
                // do whatever you want to do from here only.
                } catch (Exception e) {
                   e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
    };
    t.start();
