I have seen many BlackBerry phones with text to speech that reads the user's mail.
I want to make an application which reads text.
See Text to Speech in j2me
I'd rather say it's possible to create enterprise solution with web service on server side which will consume text and return some audio data in result. It would be fast enough inside of local wifi network of company.

I want to know if there is any way to send byte array ( that represent simple image ) to some application and this application will show this image on some screen that connected to current machine ?
I have 2 screen connected to my machine.
On the first screen i want to show the operation application that i wrote.
And on the other machine i want to show the output of the video that i hold => that mean that the second screen will show running images.
Is there is a way to do it ?
If there is a way so how .. ?
Most operating systems today do not allow direct access to the hardware from user mode programs. However, they do provide interfaces that can accomplish what you need.
Typical examples are using APIs like: OpenGL/DirectX/SDL
You should choose and use one, depending on your OS and exact requirements.
Most operating systems support multi monitor display. You app must create two Windows (using whatever native windowing system API available) and you can arrange them (either manually or programmatically according to what you specified). For video output you need to select some video format and use a library (e.g. ffmpeg) to display it.
I am new To Intelxdk and want to know whether I can achieve the points.

Sorry for big question,
anyone who has any details about all or one of those points. Please let me know,
I will be grateful.
I've also answered this on our forum...
Please see our demo apps and documentation for answers to your questions. I'll try to provide some quick answers below.
Many of your questions presume the XDK is providing platform services -- please note that the XDK provides debug and build services that put your HTML5 code into an embedded webview (an embedded browser window), where many of the features and functions depend on what is available in the embedded webview. This embedded webview container includes JavaScript API "extensions" that provide access to device resources that you normally would be restricted from using in a standard browser, such as access to device features and contacts, but, in general, if you can do something in a browser you can do it in the webview.
Also, keep in mind that the resources available in a webview on a mobile device (memory and CPU) are much more limited than what you are used to on the desktop browser. The desktop browser has nearly unlimited resources, that is not the case with a mobile device. You must design your app to be "lean and mean" for best results. Do not include large numbers of CSS and JS files, especially if you are only using one or two elements within those included apps.
1-Handle limited/no internet connection case
An XDK apps does not require a network connection. If your app uses a network connection it is up to you to determine the behavior when there is limited or no network connectivity. If you only try to access the network when the network is available...
2-Upload file from file manager to the server
There is no such thing as a "file manager" on a mobile device. How you locate and upload files is very device dependent and how you choose to upload them to a server is also up to you to decide. There are standard HTML5 techniques and a few APIs that can help.
3-Sqlite connection, execute queries(select,add,...)
Again, this is device/target platform dependent, it is not dictated by the XDK.
4-Navigate between screens using variables(Ex : user_id)
In general, we advise against using multi-page apps, due to JavaScript context changes, inter-page reload times and resource requirements. Single-page apps that use hidden divs to represent multiple pages tend to work better in this environment, especially if you are new to writing such apps.
5-Apply UI design, and handle multiple resolutions for each platform
Again, this is completely under your control, how well you can master things like media queries and such. The App Designer tool can help you tremendously in this regard, but it is NOT required. If you have your own layout tools you can use them and utilize the HTML/CSS they generate in your project. Or, you can write your layout by hand. For example, if you like to use Zurb Foundation as a responsive web design tool you can use it here.
6-Download file from server to device
Again, what you can do with that file when you get to the device is platform dependent.
7-Use maps for a given longitude and latitude
Not XDK dependent, use whatever network mapping service you prefer. You can get Lat and Long numbers by using the geo APIs that are extensions to the normal webview.
8-Swipe images by fingers
XDK does not dictate how you handle touch events, this is up to you to design how such events and actions are handled.
9-Package the app for Android & iOS
We provide packaging services for Android, iOS and several other mobile targets.
10-Push notification configuration
There is a push notification service built-in from AppMobi. However, we are moving to a 100% compatible Cordova contain that will allow you to (in the near future) include any push notification service that has the appropriate Cordova plugin.
11-Capture image from camera, save it, and upload it to server
There are APIs present for such actions.
12-Share text to social networks(Facebook,Twitter) using their apis
These can all be done using standard HTML5 programming techniques and do not require special services from the XDK.
13-Share text to social networks using intent
Intents depend on the specific platform.
14-Call XML webservice, and parse response
Use your favorite JS library to parse XML data, the XDK does not restrict this.
15-Call SOAP webservice, and parse response
Again, if you have a favorite JS library to parse SOAP data, the XDK does not restrict your use of such a library.
16-Handle device rotation(landscape)
Events are present in the standard webviews (precise behavior varies by platform) to help you deal with rotation.
I want to make application to control network traffic in blackberry java programming.
Example : I want to know how much traffic radio in or out today in my blackberry devices, like :
-Traffic radio in today : 1,29MB
-Traffic radio out today : 81.83kB
To get that number, what should i do?
Anyone can give me the source code to do that kind of stuff.
RadioInfo.getNumberOfPacketsSent
RadioInfo.getNumberOfPacketsReceived
But AFAIK, these methods return the number of bytes sent/received since the BB was powered on, so not sure you can have the number of bytes for a given day.
Hope it helps.
A potential client has come to me asking for a an app which will stream a six hour audio file. The user needs to be able to set the "playback head" to any position along the file. Presumably, this means that the app must not be forced to download the entire file before it beings playing back starting at an arbitrary
An added complication -- there are actually four files which need to be streamed and mixed simultaneously.
My questions are:
1) Is there an out-of-the box technology which will allow me random access of streaming audio, on iOS? Can this be done with standard server technology and a single long file, or will it involve some fancy server tech?
2) Which iOS framework is best suited for this. Is there anything high-level that would allow me to easily mix these four audio files?
3) Can this be done entirely with standard browser technology on the client side? (i.e. HTML5)
Have a close look at the MP3 format. It is remarkably easy and efficient to parse, chop up into little bits, and reassemble into a custom stream.
Hence rolling your own server-side code to grab what you want and send to the client will not be as crazy or difficult as it may sound.
MP3 is also widely supported by various clients. I strongly suspect any HTML5 capable browser will be able of play the stream you generate via a long-lived bit-rate regulated HTTP request.
sorry for this little bit strange title, didn't found a better one..
I've got the following situation:
I have a PC with an RFID reader connected via USB.
I now need a program which pops up when ab transponder was scanned the the RFID reader and shows the scanned value. (The reader just simulates keystrokes)
Problem: the value of the transponder is something like 0001230431, and I can't change it. (To prefix a hotkey combination or so)
So I have thought about using a global keyboard hook, check if three zeros where typed in, capture rest of data and when the 10 digits are complete, call the application through an automation object and show the number.
But I'm not very exalted about using a global keyboard hook. Many AV programs don't like them very much, they are not so easy to handle with Delphi and I guess that's not very resource-friendly for such a little task...
So I'm looking for an alternative solution...maybe somebody has an idea?
Big thx!
ben, you can use the RegisterRawInputDevices and GetRawInputData functions.
first you must use the RegisterRawInputDevices function to register the input device to monitor and then you can retrieves the data from the input device using the GetRawInputData function.
Check theses functions too
GetRawInputDeviceList retrieves the list of input devices attached to the system.
GetRawInputDeviceInfo retrieves information on a device.
Why not make sure the Delphi app with a text edit control has focus before the scan is done? Then the keystrokes will go straight into your Delphi app.
