Returns

an instance of speech synthesizer.

init:error:

Initializes a new instance of speech synthesizer using a speech config. This synthesizer will output the audio to default speaker, which will throw an exception if the speaker is not available.

Properties

properties

@property (readonly, atomic) id<SPXPropertyCollection> _Nullable properties;

The collection of properties and their values defined for this SPXSpeechSynthesizer.

authorizationToken

@property (readwrite, copy, nonatomic) NSString * _Nullable authorizationToken;
