Android Question TTS event

[ivavilagu]

I have a problem with tts_ready event. This is the code

Sub TTS1_Ready (Success As Boolean)
    If Success Then
        boolTTS = True
    End If
End Sub

boolTTS is a global variable that saves (obviously) the state of TTS. Here is the code for speaking text the first time:

TTS1.Initialize("TTS1")
Do While boolTTS = False
Loop
TTS1.Speak(strlinea,True)

I use the Do/Loop event to ensure the TTS engine is ready before speaking the text. If I run the program step to step the execution works fine. If I run the program 'normally' it doesn´t work and hangs up.

I don´t want to put the tts1.speak line into tts1_ready event.

I reply myself. I have to insert the tts1.speak line into tts1_ready event, among other modifications at code in order to execute as well the program.

Such loops do not work. They block the main thread and prevents the event from being raised.

You should remove this variable and continue your program flow from the Ready event.
