ISpeechRecoGrammar CmdLoadFromFile method (Microsoft Speech Platform)

Microsoft Speech Platform SDK 11

Microsoft Speech Platform

Interface: ISpeechRecoGrammar

CmdLoadFromFile Method

The CmdLoadFromFile method loads a command and control grammar from the specified file.

The grammar may be compiled or uncompiled, and it can be loaded for static or dynamic use, as specified in the LoadOption parameter.


ISpeechRecoGrammar.CmdLoadFromFile(
     FileName As String,
     [LoadOption As SpeechLoadOption = SLOStatic]
)

Parameters

FileName
Specifies the file name. SAPI 5 supports loading of compiled static grammars through a URL.
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 the use of the CmdLoadFromFile and the CmdLoadFromMemory methods. To run this code, create a form with the following control:

  • A command button called Command1

Paste this code into the Declarations section of the form.

The Form_Load procedure creates two grammar objects and uses the CmdLoadFromFile method to load the Solitaire rules into the first grammar. The Command1_Click procedure calls a subroutine called GrammarToMemory, which creates a temporary grammar in a Variant variable, and returns this grammar to the caller. The Command1 procedure then reloads the first grammar with the temporary grammar.
