Re: [Soaplab2-dev] ACD outfile problem: how do you return a file?

[Martin S. <mar...@gm...>]

Hi,

It uses a -dumpAudio flag to output to a file


No, I am afraid it does not. The dumpAudio is a string, not an outout file.
Soaplab has no idea that the underlying application uses this parameter as
an output file - it just takes its value (e.g. the string 'output.wav'
literally as a command-lien option but it does not do anything else with it.
The only output file the Soaplab sees is the one defined in the 'output'
paremeter (and Soaplab give it its own name).

If your applicatation has a hard-coded name for the output file, you are out
of luck, at least now. You have to wrap you script into few lines that can
map the hard-coded file name into the one given by Soaplab (in your exanple,
it was:
/home/tc/apache-tomcat-6.0.16/temp/_R_/SANDBOX/[text_to_speech.freetts]_4ca7ea84.11b07436c4e._7ffe/o_output).

I think that all your observed problems have the same cause: your
application uses the -dumpAudio parameter for the output file, but Soaplab
consideres the -output parameter as the one for the output.

Cheers,
Martin

PS. Sorry if I do not reply for your other emails soon - but I will be for
next about ten days on my holiday, and I may not be always available
