Text To Speech Goes In As A Tech Preview For Qt 5.8

Written by Michael Larabel in Qt on 19 January 2017 at 09:06 PM EST. 15 Comments

With Qt 5.8 that's due to be released next week there is the new Qt Speech as a "tech preview" of text-to-speech for this tool-kit.

Qt Speech is new to Qt 5.8 as their initial text-to-speech implementation with abstractions for different platform back-ends. So far this module is quite basic and the API appears to be very easy to interact with for Qt application developers.

If you're a Qt developer and interested in text-to-speech possibilities, check out this blog.qt.io post. Qt 5.8.0 is due to be released around 23 January with a wide-range of changes.
