Selecting a Synthesizer

Since there may be more than one voice available on the system in which the application runs, you may want to integrate selection into the application.

Applications obtain an enumerated list of available voices and then select the desired voice by Name, ID, or ISO5Language.


for (JChantEngine engine : _Synthesizer.getChantEngines())
{
    // Access engine properties
    String name = engine.getName(); 
    ...
    // If this is the desired engine, select it
    _Synthesizer.setEngine(name);
    break;
}


foreach (NChantEngine chantEngine in _Synthesizer.ChantEngines)
{
    // Access engine properties
    string name = chantEngine.Name;
    ...
    // If this is the desired engine, select it
    _Synthesizer.SetEngine(name);
    break;
}


for (int i = 0; i < _Synthesizer->GetChantEngines()->GetCount(); i++)
{
    CChantEngine* pChantEngine = _Synthesizer->GetChantEngines()->GetChantEngine(i);
    // Access engine properties
    wchar_t* engine = pChantEngine->GetName();
    ...
    // If this is the desired engine, select it
    _Synthesizer->SetEngine(engine);
    break;
}


for (int i = 0; i < _Synthesizer->GetChantEngines()->Count; i++)
{
    CChantEngine* pChantEngine = _Synthesizer->GetChantEngines()->GetChantEngine(i);
    // Access engine properties
    String engine = pChantEngine->GetName();
    ...
    // If this is the desired engine, select it
    _Synthesizer->SetEngine(engine);
