I've been stuck on this for the last 5 hours...and so I'm coming to you guys for your help. I have read this:
Android Speech Recognition as a service on Android 4.1 & 4.2
The code that the answer suggests is the following:
public class MyService extends Service
{
protected AudioManager mAudioManager;
protected SpeechRecognizer mSpeechRecognizer;
protected Intent mSpeechRecognizerIntent;
protected final Messenger mServerMessenger = new Messenger(new IncomingHandler(this));
protected boolean mIsListening;
protected volatile boolean mIsCountDownOn;
private boolean mIsStreamSolo;
static final int MSG_RECOGNIZER_START_LISTENING = 1;
static final int MSG_RECOGNIZER_CANCEL = 2;
@Override
public void onCreate()
{
super.onCreate();
mAudioManager = (AudioManager) getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
mSpeechRecognizer = SpeechRecognizer.createSpeechRecognizer(this);
mSpeechRecognizer.setRecognitionListener(new SpeechRecognitionListener());
mSpeechRecognizerIntent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
mSpeechRecognizerIntent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
mSpeechRecognizerIntent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_CALLING_PACKAGE,
this.getPackageName());
}
protected static class IncomingHandler extends Handler
{
private WeakReference<MyService> mtarget;
IncomingHandler(MyService target)
{
mtarget = new WeakReference<MyService>(target);
}
@Override
public void handleMessage(Message msg)
{
final MyService target = mtarget.get();
switch (msg.what)
{
case MSG_RECOGNIZER_START_LISTENING:
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN)
{
// turn off beep sound
if (!mIsStreamSolo)
{
mAudioManager.setStreamSolo(AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL, true);
mIsStreamSolo = true;
}
}
if (!target.mIsListening)
{
target.mSpeechRecognizer.startListening(target.mSpeechRecognizerIntent);
target.mIsListening = true;
//Log.d(TAG, "message start listening"); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
break;
case MSG_RECOGNIZER_CANCEL:
if (mIsStreamSolo)
{
mAudioManager.setStreamSolo(AudioManager.STREAM_VOICE_CALL, false);
mIsStreamSolo = false;
}
target.mSpeechRecognizer.cancel();
target.mIsListening = false;
//Log.d(TAG, "message canceled recognizer"); //$NON-NLS-1$
break;
}
}
}
// Count down timer for Jelly Bean work around
protected CountDownTimer mNoSpeechCountDown = new CountDownTimer(5000, 5000)
{
@Override
public void onTick(long millisUntilFinished)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void onFinish()
{
mIsCountDownOn = false;
Message message = Message.obtain(null, MSG_RECOGNIZER_CANCEL);
try
{
mServerMessenger.send(message);
message = Message.obtain(null, MSG_RECOGNIZER_START_LISTENING);
mServerMessenger.send(message);
}
catch (RemoteException e)
{
}
}
};
@Override
public void onDestroy()
{
super.onDestroy();
if (mIsCountDownOn)
{
mNoSpeechCountDown.cancel();
}
if (mSpeechRecognizer != null)
{
mSpeechRecognizer.destroy();
}
}
protected class SpeechRecognitionListener implements RecognitionListener
{
@Override
public void onBeginningOfSpeech()
{
// speech input will be processed, so there is no need for count down anymore
if (mIsCountDownOn)
{
mIsCountDownOn = false;
mNoSpeechCountDown.cancel();
}
//Log.d(TAG, "onBeginingOfSpeech"); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
@Override
public void onBufferReceived(byte[] buffer)
{
}
@Override
public void onEndOfSpeech()
{
//Log.d(TAG, "onEndOfSpeech"); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
@Override
public void onError(int error)
{
if (mIsCountDownOn)
{
mIsCountDownOn = false;
mNoSpeechCountDown.cancel();
}
mIsListening = false;
Message message = Message.obtain(null, MSG_RECOGNIZER_START_LISTENING);
try
{
mServerMessenger.send(message);
}
catch (RemoteException e)
{
}
//Log.d(TAG, "error = " + error); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
@Override
public void onEvent(int eventType, Bundle params)
{
}
@Override
public void onPartialResults(Bundle partialResults)
{
}
@Override
public void onReadyForSpeech(Bundle params)
{
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN)
{
mIsCountDownOn = true;
mNoSpeechCountDown.start();
}
Log.d(TAG, "onReadyForSpeech"); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
@Override
public void onResults(Bundle results)
{
//Log.d(TAG, "onResults"); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
@Override
public void onRmsChanged(float rmsdB)
{
}
}
}
I am confused on what the IncomingHandler.class does, and what method calls handlemessage . Im also confused on how this code is continuously running, because I don't see the listener getting re-instantiated after onResults. Can anyone mind explaining? Maybe even adding comments in to help me understand?
Thanks so much!
