Engines must declare a <meta-data> attribute in their
manifest with name "android.speech.tts". This must reference
an XML resource as per
com.android.internal.R.styleable.TextToSpeechEngine.

This has been discussed in an email thread. This brings the
text to speech API in line with other android APIs.
The user can set default speech rates / languages and
engine preferences, which the API obeys BUT these can be
overriden by individual apps (much like intent.setComponent
and intent.setClassName can be used to launch a specific
handler for a given intent).
Also, all installed engines are enabled by default. The
user is shown the "data privacy" warning every time an
installed engine is set to the default.

This makes it a lot easier for engine implementers
to test their engine. This is a dumb data object, and
contains no logic whatsoever.

(a) ensure that onInit is called exactly once per call to initTts().
(b) TtsEngines should never return an engine that is not installed.
Change-Id: Ic1ef63a9339e6d1050e3302445ca40d3ae481f61
One point to note is that no TTS engine will be selected
by default if there are no system TTS engines.

(a) Document the undocumented queue mode (mode == 2)
(b) intern strings to fix a bug in removeCallbacksAndMessages
(c) remove an unnecessarly lock object, change the field it
guarded to volatile.

Note that this change is slightly more flexible, it defines
a priority for each playback request. We needn't really throw
away synthesis requests from other apps. We could just play
them after higher priority ones (for e.g from talkback).

This ended up making the implementation a lot cleaner
as well. See the bug listed below for some background.

There is no point loading a language that will never be used.
It is in fact harmful, because the engine might load it and
then receive a request for the default voice and have to load
the default voice again.

Now, SynthesisRequest.audioAvailable( ) will not block
until all data has been written to the audiotrack.

This is a new API for writing text-to-speech engines.
The existing API for apps that use TTS remains the same,
with some minor additions.
Change-Id: Id577db449ae0e5baec40621d4a08387dbd755342
(a) Don't check that the audiotrack is initialized (will
not be true in static mode until the first write call)
(b) Block until it completes playing.
Change-Id: I50eb6cece00f3d12f3b75102d62014c360ac0346
This adds two methods:
SynthesisRequest.getMaxBufferSize()
SynthesisRequest.completeAudioAvailable()
Change-Id: I1186eed45997ee9a7e51212c8d6706dd324ca949
This removes the old non-public C++ API for TTS
engines and replaces it with a Java API.
The new API is still @hidden, until it has been approved.

Pass speech recognizer confidence values in the SpeechRecognizer and
RecognizerIntent APIs through to the caller. This change defines new
API constants for keys to these values.
The corresponding change is being made to Google Voice Search, and should be
made to any other implementations.

This is just a code clean-up change. It should have no effects
on behavior.
- The exception clean-up code was copied in lots of places,
added a restart() method for it.
- Use Log.e to print exception stack trace instead of doing
it manually.
- Moved return statements outside finally-blocks. Having them
in the finally-block makes no difference, but can be misleading.
Also, Eclipse complains about it.

The NB_CACHED_PARAMS is the number of cached parameters, not

Bug #3458256
If an error occurs and simultaneously user cancels the recognition, here is what happens:
1. dispatchCancel() is called since the user requested cancel. It passes the first "if" successfully.
private void dispatchCancel(IRecognitionListener listener) {
if (mCurrentCallback == null) {
if (DBG) Log.d(TAG, "cancel called with no preceding startListening - ignoring");
} else if (mCurrentCallback.mListener.asBinder() != listener.asBinder()) {
Log.w(TAG, "cancel called by client who did not call startListening - ignoring");
} else { // the correct state
RecognitionService.this.onCancel(mCurrentCallback);
mCurrentCallback = null;
if (DBG) Log.d(TAG, "canceling - setting mCurrentCallback to null");
}
}
2. Error occurs in the app, which sets the mCurrentCallback to null:
public void error(int error) throws RemoteException {
mCurrentCallback = null;
mListener.onError(error);
}
3. the second "if" is reached in dispatchCancel()
4. boom

The creation of a TextToSpeech object causes the TTS service to
start, and the initialization listener to be called when the
service is connected. But the listener is never called when
the service binding failed to be notified of this error.
The fix consists in checking the result of the bind to service
operation, and notify the listener in case of an error.
More log was added in case speak() and synthesizeToFile() are
called but the service is not known to have started.

This CL unhides two "keys" an application can use to specify for
an utterance its playback volume and pan. Those two new keys
use the same mechanism already in place for an application to
specify stream type and utterance ID.
Change-Id: I020363487d7a0f471fb8d3ed739c561d2ab4b0a9
Add two new parameters that are used when synthesizing text and
playing it back directly to control the volume and left-right
panning of the output.
Panning is applied using a balance law, which is not energy-preserving
but which doesn't lower the volume when not panning / panning to
center (legacy behavior).
Reduced amount of logs, and removed spoken text.
In TextToSpeech.java: added convenience method to handle the setting
of the cached synthesis parameters.

avoid triggering any non-web-search actions from the speech recognizer
(such as Voice Actions in the Google implementation). The browser will set
this to true to avoid triggering non-web-search actions when speech
recognition is requested from the browser.

Root cause was not caching all the params that were needed.
This change fixes that bug as well as related bugs for remembering
the default engine and for making sure that the right engine is
loaded when checking for language availability.
