Summary

LexiconKit 4 provides a way to enumerate, add, and remove SAPI 5 dictation shortcuts.

More Information

LexiconKit 4 introduces a new resource type CSRLexiconShortcut that represents a SAPI dictation shortcut. You enumerate the CSRLexiconShortcut to determine what shortcuts are defined for the default user.

The following example illustrates enumerating shortcuts. 


int numberOfShortcuts = NChantLM1.GetResourceCount(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut);
for (i = 0; i < numberOfShortcuts; i++)
{
    NChantLexiconShortcut nChantLexiconShortcut = NChantLM1.GetChantLexiconShortcut(i);
    // Access shortcut properties
    String stringVal = nChantLexiconShortcut.Spoken;
}
    

int numberOfShortcuts = pCChantLM->GetResourceCount(CSRLexiconShortcut);
for (i = 0; i < numberOfShortcuts; i++)
{
    CChantLexiconShortcut* pChantLexiconShortcut = pChantLM->GetChantLexiconShortcut(i);
    // Access shortcut properties
    wchar_t* pszVal = pChantLexiconShortcut->GetSpoken();
}
    

int numberOfShortcuts = pCChantLM->GetResourceCount(CSRLexiconShortcut);
for (i = 0; i < numberOfShortcuts; i++)
{
    CChantLexiconShortcut* pChantLexiconShortcut = pChantLM->GetChantLexiconShortcut(i);
    // Access shortcut properties
    String stringVal = pChantLexiconShortcut->GetSpoken();
}
    

var
aTChantLexiconShortcut: TChantLexiconShortcut;
numberOfShortcuts: Integer;
i: Integer;
stringVal: string;
begin
    numberOfShortcuts := ChantLM1.GetResourceCount(CSRLexiconShortcut);
    for i := 0 to numberOfShortcuts - 1 do
    begin
        aTChantLexiconShortcut := ChantLM1.GetChantLexiconShortcut(nIndex);
        // Access shortcut properties
        stringVal := aTChantLexiconShortcut.Spoken; 
    end;
end;
    

int numberOfShortcuts = JChantLM1.getResourceCount(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut);
for (i = 0; i < numberOfShortcuts; i++)
{
    JChantLexiconShortcut jChantLexiconShortcut = JChantLM1.getChantLexiconShortcut(i);
    // Access shortcut properties
    String stringVal = jChantLexiconShortcut.getSpoken(); 
}


numberOfShortcuts = WChantLM1.GetResourceCount(CSRLexiconShortcut);
for (i = 0; i < numberOfShortcuts; i++)
{
    var wChantLexiconShortcut = WChantLM1.GetResource(CSRLexiconShortcut, i);
    // Access shortcut properties
    var stringVal = wChantLexiconShortcut.Spoken 
}
    

Dim aXChantLexiconShortcut As XChantLexiconShortcut
Dim I as Integer
Dim numberOfShortcuts As Integer
Dim stringVal As String
    numberOfShortcuts = XChantLM1.GetResourceCount(CSRLexiconShortcut);
    For I = 0 To numberOfShortcuts - 1
        Set aXChantLexiconShortcut = XChantLM1.GetResource(CSRLexiconShortcut, I)
        ' Access shortcut properties
        stringVal = aXChantLexiconShortcut.Spoken 
    Next I
    

Dim nChantLexiconShortcut As NChantLexiconShortcut
Dim I as Integer
Dim numberOfShortcuts as Integer
Dim stringVal As String
    numberOfShortcuts = NChantLM1.GetResourceCount(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut)
    For I = 0 To numberOfShortcuts - 1
        nChantLexiconShortcut = NChantLM1.GetChantLexiconShortcut(i)
        ' Access shortcut properties
        stringVal = nChantLexiconShortcut.Spoken 
    Next I

You add a shortcut with the ChantLM AddShortcut method.

The following example illustrates adding a shortcut directly to a local speech engine lexicon. 


// Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
NChantLM1.AddShortcut(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212", 3);
    

// Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
pChantLM->AddShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, L"Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", L"work phone", L"310-555-1212",  3);
    

// Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
pChantLM->AddShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3);
    

// Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
ChantLM1.AddShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, 'Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)', 'work phone', '310-555-1212',  3);
    

// Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
JChantLM1.addShortcut(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3);


// Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
WChantLM1.AddShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3);
    

' Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
XChantLM1.AddShortcut CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3
    

' Add shortcut directly to speech engine lexicon
NChantLM1.AddShortcut(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3)

You remove a shortcut with the ChantLM DeleteShortcut method. To edit a shortcut, simply remove it first, then add it.

The following example illustrates deleting a shortcut. 


// Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
NChantLM1.DeleteShortcut(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212", 3);
    

// Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
pChantLM->DeleteShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, L"Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", L"work phone", L"310-555-1212",  3);
    

// Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
pChantLM->DeleteShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3);
    

// Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
ChantLM1.DeleteShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, 'Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)', 'work phone', '310-555-1212',  3);
    

// Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
JChantLM1.deleteShortcut(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3);


// Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
WChantLM1.DeleteShortcut(CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3);
    

' Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
XChantLM1.DeleteShortcut CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3
    

' Delete shortcut directly from speech engine lexicon
NChantLM1.DeleteShortcut(ChantSpeechResource.CSRLexiconShortcut, "Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US)", "work phone", "310-555-1212",  3)
