Methods are underlined in red. I have tried to figure out why this is happening, but I keep running into cannot resolve method. I have the methods in the main TextoToSpeechExample1 class and am invoking the methods in my gui class.
class TextToSpeechExample1 {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException, EngineException, AudioException, InterruptedException {
static void start(){
// code to be executed
String fileName = "/Users/stevenshivayka/Documents/kjv.txt";
Path path = Paths.get(fileName);
byte[] bytes = Files.readAllBytes(path);
List<String> allLines = Files.readAllLines(path, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
//setting properties as Kevin Dictionary
System.setProperty("freetts.voices", "com.sun.speech.freetts.en.us" ".cmu_us_kal.KevinVoiceDirectory");
//registering speech engine
Central.registerEngineCentral("com.sun.speech.freetts" ".jsapi.FreeTTSEngineCentral");
//create a Synthesizer that generates voice
Synthesizer synthesizer = Central.createSynthesizer(new SynthesizerModeDesc(Locale.US));
//allocates a synthesizer
synthesizer.allocate();
//resume a Synthesizer
synthesizer.resume();
//speak the specified text until the QUEUE become empty
synthesizer.speakPlainText(allLines.toString(), null);
synthesizer.waitEngineState(Synthesizer.QUEUE_EMPTY);
//deallocating the Synthesizer
synthesizer.deallocate();
}
public static void pause(){
Synthesizer synthesizer = Central.createSynthesizer(new SynthesizerModeDesc(Locale.US));
synthesizer.allocate();
synthesizer.resume();
synthesizer.deallocate();
synthesizer.pause();
}
}
}
class gui {
public static void main(String args[]) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Babbel Audio Application");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setSize(400, 400);
frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
JButton button = new JButton("Start Audio");
frame.add(button); // Adds Button to content pane of frame
frame.setVisible(true);
JButton button2 = new JButton("Pause Audio");
frame.add(button2);
frame.setVisible(true);
button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//your actions
TextToSpeechExample1.start();
}
});
button2.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//your actions
pause();
}
});
}
}
`
I expected the methods to be invoked. Please if you can review this and see what I am doing wrong I would greatly appreciate it. This is a project I am working on myself.

This isn't a good question for StackOverflow but anyway...
As far as I can see it, you implemented the two methodes start and pause in the main methode but you need to implement them outside of it.
Try this:
class TextToSpeechExample1 {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException, EngineException, AudioException, InterruptedException {}
static void start(){
// code to be executed
String fileName = "/Users/stevenshivayka/Documents/kjv.txt";
Path path = Paths.get(fileName);
byte[] bytes = Files.readAllBytes(path);
List<String> allLines = Files.readAllLines(path, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
//setting properties as Kevin Dictionary
System.setProperty("freetts.voices", "com.sun.speech.freetts.en.us" ".cmu_us_kal.KevinVoiceDirectory");
//registering speech engine
Central.registerEngineCentral("com.sun.speech.freetts" ".jsapi.FreeTTSEngineCentral");
//create a Synthesizer that generates voice
Synthesizer synthesizer = Central.createSynthesizer(new SynthesizerModeDesc(Locale.US));
//allocates a synthesizer
synthesizer.allocate();
//resume a Synthesizer
synthesizer.resume();
//speak the specified text until the QUEUE become empty
synthesizer.speakPlainText(allLines.toString(), null);
synthesizer.waitEngineState(Synthesizer.QUEUE_EMPTY);
//deallocating the Synthesizer
synthesizer.deallocate();
}
public static void pause(){
Synthesizer synthesizer = Central.createSynthesizer(new SynthesizerModeDesc(Locale.US));
synthesizer.allocate();
synthesizer.resume();
synthesizer.deallocate();
synthesizer.pause();
}
}
class gui {
public static void main(String args[]) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Babbel Audio Application");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setSize(400, 400);
frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
JButton button = new JButton("Start Audio");
frame.add(button); // Adds Button to content pane of frame
frame.setVisible(true);
JButton button2 = new JButton("Pause Audio");
frame.add(button2);
frame.setVisible(true);
button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//your actions
TextToSpeechExample1.start();
}
});
button2.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//your actions
TextToSpeechExample1.pause();
}
});
}
}

Quickly looking over your code, a few things jump out:
- You're attempting to declare a new function
static void start()inside yourpublic static void main(..)function. This isn't allowed in java. You should be declaring your functions inside the class itself:
class TextToSpeechExample1 {
static void start() { ...your code here... }
public static void pause() { ... your code here ... }
public static void main (String args[]) { ... your code here ...}
}
You should probably also look into the basics of access modifiers/specifiers in Java.
You won't be able to call a private function, or a function declared in a private class from another class, for example.

The void start and pause are inside the main void of your TextoToSpeechExample1 class, remove them from inside the main void and it will not give an error.
