ISpeechRecoGrammar CmdLoadFromMemory Method (SAPI 5.3)

Microsoft Speech API 5.3

Interface: ISpeechRecoGrammar

CmdLoadFromMemory Method

The CmdLoadFromMemory method loads a compiled speech grammar from memory.

  
    ISpeechRecoGrammar.CmdLoadFromMemory(
     GrammarData As Variant,
     [LoadOption As SpeechLoadOption = SLOStatic]
)

Parameters

• GrammarData
  Specifies the GrammarData.
• LoadOption
  [Optional] Specifies whether the grammar is to be loaded for static or dynamic use. The default is static.

Return Value

None.

Example

The following Visual Basic form code demonstrates use of the CmdLoadFromMemory method. To run this code, create a form and paste this code into the Declarations section.

The Form_Load procedure creates a recognition context and a CFG grammar object. It adds a simple rule to the grammar, and saves the grammar data to a Variant variable with the CommitAndSave method. It then uses the CmdLoadFromMemory method to load the second grammar object with the grammar data in the Variant variable. Finally, it activates the rule in the second grammar.

If the computer has a microphone, run this code and speak the phrase, "Hello, world" into the microphone. The recognition context's Recognition and FalseRecognition event procedures display messages indicating successful or unsuccessful recognition.
