Hi folks, I know this has been asked, one form or another, on this list before, but my team and I are looking to gain direct control over the JAWS synthesizer in our tools, including telling it to stop speaking, or start speaking, through the standard JAWS synthesizer. I've read up a little bit, and people seem to say it has something to do with a file eci.dll, but a set of google searches hasn't turned up any obvious documentation --- and I'm not positive this is the right path. To be clear, we don't want to distribute the JAWS voices, we just want to interact with an existing installation of JAWS that someone has installed on their machine. So, basically, if we want to take control of JAWS, through C++ (or Java, preferably ---through JNI if we have to), what is the easiest way to do it? Does anyone have any good links to documentation on the various DLL's and how you connect? Is this a job for a simple JAWS script?
