Java Program which speaks

Today you will see a java program which could convert text to speech .The program will ask you to enter string and then it will spell the string in a natural human voice.

NOTE:- For this app i am using a third party library named FreeTTS 1.2.2 you could download it from here .Here i am assuming that you know how to use the jars of third party libraries if not then you could have a look on here.

If you are using Blue J IDE then see it here.

If you are using Ellipse then look here.

So below is the complete code of our Application

Spell.java

 
import com.sun.speech.freetts.Voice;
import com.sun.speech.freetts.VoiceManager;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class Spell {
private static final String VOICE_NAME_KEVIN = "kevin16";
    private final Voice voice;
    
    public Spell() {

        VoiceManager vm = VoiceManager.getInstance();       
        voice = vm.getVoice(VOICE_NAME_KEVIN);
        voice.allocate();
    }

    public void speak(String inputText) {

        if(inputText != null) {
            
            voice.speak(inputText);
        }
else          {
                inputText="Atleast enter something to speak";     
                voice.speak(inputText);
         }
}

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        // Defining Scanner Object to read data from console
        Scanner inputScanner = new Scanner(System.in);
        
        Spell tsc = new Spell();

        System.out.println("Enter the Text : (type 'exit' to terminate)");

        // Reading the text
        String inputText = inputScanner.nextLine();

        while (true) {

            if("exit".equalsIgnoreCase(inputText)) {
                
                inputText = "Good Bye, we will talk later";
                tsc.speak(inputText);
                break;
            }
            
            tsc.speak(inputText);
            
            System.out.println("Enter the Text : (type 'exit' to terminate)");
            inputText = inputScanner.nextLine();
        }

        inputScanner.close();
        
    }
}

Create a simple virus using java

What's my idea Before we start talking how we will create a simple flooder virus using java we must be clear about what is the idea and how to implement it. So the idea is to create a program which will create thousands of blank files in a drive you will don't believe but it could create file with a speed of 1060+ files per second . How to implement it Now the problem is how we would do this?? So here is the answer . First of all we will design a loop which will run N number of times where N is the number of files which we want to create. Then we will create a new File with the help of createNewFile() function of java.io.File class. The name of each file is the value of the variable which is used in the loop. Here is the sample virus program. /** * **********This virus program is just for educational purpose * author will not be re...

Capturing Screen Shot using java

Here i will tell you how to write a program using java which is capable of capturing screenshots(either whole or partial).And save it as an image. Which java API ? The java.awt.Robot class provides a useful method for capturing a screenshot.Here is the method prototype. BufferedImage createScreenCapture(Rectangle screenRect) It is clear from the prototype that this function returns a BufferedImage and takes a Rectangle class object (portion of the screen to capture) as the argument.The BufferedImage which is returned could be saved using ImageIO class write method.Lets begin with the program. 1) Capturing full screen In order to capture full screen using createScreenCapture(Rectangle screenRect) screenRect should have the full screen size and in order to do that we will use Toolkit class of java. Rectangle screenRect = new Rectangle( Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize() ); Now here begins the whole program. /* ******...

Hijack Clipboard using java

What is Clipboard? The clipboard is a special location in your computer's memory that temporarily stores data that has been cut or copied from a document. This data can then be pasted to a new location. The clipboard will typically hold its information until you cut or copy something else, or log out of the computer. For example, a user may copy information from a word processor and paste that information into an e-mail message. What is Clipboard Hijack? A clipboard hijacking is an exploit in which the attacker gains control of the victim'sclipboard and replaces its contents with their own data, such as a link to a malicious Web site.For more details see here . Hacking clipboard using java. Our java code will repeatedly change clipboard text with the hackers text, may be a irritating line ,or a URL to your site. We will use the Toolkit class to get the system clipboard and then we will use the Clipboard class to change the content of clipboard. ...
