How do I incorporate speech in my Swing application?
1) First you need to download a speech engine. For example, you can download for free the Microsoft's Speech SDK here. (Beware: version 5.1 is 68MB). Use the tools available to make sure the SDK is properly installed and trained to your voice.
2) Then get an implementation of Sun's Java Speech API (JSAPI). The one I used in this example is from the CloudGarden. Follow the instructions on this page to find out how to install: copy the files jsapi.dll and jsapi.jar to JRE_HOME/lib/ext and adjust your classpath so that it includes jsapi.jar, necessary to compile following sample program.
3) This sample program was written by looking at the Cloud Garden examples. I dictated the following text to the app: "Last night, after a productive day of work, I joined my girlfriend in bed and quoted a very famous poet, who's name escapes me. I said: 'I feel great sexual desire for you right now.'. She said she's not into poetry.". The result (see window) was better than I expected.
