createEngineList
public EngineList createEngineList(EngineModeDesc require)
Returns a list containing references to all matching synthesizers. The mapping of FreeTTS VoiceDirectories and Voices to JSAPI Synthesizers and Voices is as follows:- Each FreeTTS VoiceDirectory specifies the list of FreeTTS Voices supported by that directory. Each Voice in that directory specifies its name (e.g., "kevin" "kevin16" "alan"), domain (e.g., "general" or "time") and locale (e.g., Locale.US).
- For all FreeTTS Voices from all VoiceDirectories discovered by the VoiceManager, this method will group the Voices according to those that have both a common locale and domain (e.g, all "general" domain voices for the US local will be grouped together).
- For each group of voices that shares a common locale and
domain, this method generates a new JSAPI SynthesizerModeDesc
with the following attributes:
- The engine name is of the form: "FreeTTS <locale> <domain> synthesizer" For example, "FreeTTS en_us general synthesizer"
- The locale is the locale shared by all the voices (e.g., Locale.US)
- The mode name is the domain shared by all the voices (e.g., "general").
- The JSAPI Voices for each resulting Synthesizer will have the name of the FreeTTS Voice (e.g. "kevin" "kevin16").
- Parameters:
require
- an engine mode that describes the desired synthesizer- Returns:
- an engineList containing matching engines, or null if no matching engines are found
