Installation Instructions
- After downloading the zip file for this bean package,
unzip it, using the jar command or any unzip utility. This will automatically create a new
directory with the bean package name and extract files into it.
- To use these beans in a visual builder tool, do the
followings:
- Make sure the visual builder tool supports JDK V1.2 or
later.
- Download the ViaVoice SDK, Java Technology Edition V1.0 and
ViaVoice Runtimes required from http://www.software.ibm.com/speech/dev/sdk_java.html
and install them.
- Import ibmjs.jar in the lib
directory of where the ViaVoice SDK was installed, into the visual builder tool (Please
refer to the User's Guide for your visual builder tool for instructions on how to
import jar files).
- Import Voice.jar in the lib
directory of the unzipped folder, into the visual builder tool.
- Find a file called speech.properties in the
lib directory of the installed Java 1.2 run-time environment, and copy it to the lib
directory in the visual builder tool's directory (e.g. into IBMVJava/Ide/Program/Lib for
VisualAge for Java, or JBuilder/lib for JBuilder, or VisualCafePDE/Java/lib for
VisualCafe).
- Add ibmjs.jar to the external CLASSPATH
setting in the visual builder tool.
- Note: Remember to NOT compute CLASSPATH in
Visual Age. That will include extra things which causes the application to throw an
obscure error. Make sure that in the CLASSPATH of the application, only the external ibmjs.jar
is set.
- To use these beans without a visual builder tool, do the
followings:
- Make sure JDK V1.2 or later is supported.
- Download the ViaVoice SDK, Java Technology Edition V1.0 and
ViaVoice Runtimes required from http://www.software.ibm.com/speech/dev/sdk_java.html
and install them.
- Add Voice.jar in the lib directory to your
CLASSPATH setting.
- To run the demo application provided with this package,
follow the instructions in the Readme.html
file in the demo directory. It is not necessary to update your CLASSPATH setting in
order to run the demo. The demo program will do this automatically.
Note: This bean package includes separate jar files
for design and run-time functions. Import the design-time jar file (Voice.jar) into
your visual builder tool, and use the run-time jar file (Voice_Runtime.jar)
for optimal run-time performance.
