Re: [g-a-devel]GNOME Speech

[Michael Meeks <michael ximian com>]

Hi Marc,

	Again - compiling with warnings enabled CFLAGS=-Wall before configure,
is quite useful - viavoice_set_pitch doesn't return a value, neither
does viavoice_stop. [ also, quite why you want a value here I don't know
- if there is an exceptional condition you want to flag; it's often good
to use the 'exception' environment - the user has to check it anyway.

	Also - it seems that you've not namespaced the .server files correctly;
these are all installed into the same directory namespace - so it's
important to namespace them; the names should all be prefixed by
GNOME_Speech_ eg.

	GNOME_Speech_Driver_viavoice.server

	see /usr/lib/bonobo/servers to see who else is offending and complying
here :-) [ grief, mostly me it seems, in b-a ;-].

	And worse: it works for me: :-)

Name gotten is baseline pitch value is 0x80561e9.
parameter 1: baseline pitch.
   minimum value: 0.00.

	So ... quite what's going on for you is rather a mystery to me; can you
send a trace of the ORBIT2_DEBUG for me to see ? are you sure that you
didn't change the structure and fail to re-build / install some part of
the equation ? if both ends disagree about the structure layout there
can be acute problems :-)

	Here's a patch to cleanup the test a little;

	HTH,

		Michael.
