Hello ,

Very good application !

I had a question if you want to export your application into myappli.air , is it possible to include your java application or you have always to start first your java application and then start myappli.air ?

Because start two application is not good for the final user

thank you for your help

Thanks for your well illustrated samples!! I am running into an issue where the Java application does not wait but runs to completion. There are no obvious errors and seems to run okay. I looked at your video posting with regard to the Voice sample – I am also having the same experience with this as well. Any suggestion as to why the Java application thread is not waiting? Thanks

Hey Rich,
I figured it out. The repository is indeed missing some files.
you probably have those jars in your default class path.
I had to add the following jars to the java-project (they can be found in the freetts-1.2.2-bin.zip on sourceforge)
[ http://ovh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/freetts/freetts-1.2.2-bin.zip

cmu_time_awb.jar
cmu_us_kal.jar
cmudict04.jar
cmulex.jar
cmutimelex.jar
en_us.jar

Now I can hear kevin16 say anything I tell him to,
Although his Dutch pronunciation is kinda poor
