SpeechRecognitionEngine.UpdateRecognizerSetting Method (String, Int32)

Updates the specified setting for the SpeechRecognitionEngine with the specified integer value.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Speech.Recognition
Assembly:  Microsoft.Speech (in Microsoft.Speech.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub UpdateRecognizerSetting ( _
    settingName As String, _
    updatedValue As Integer _
)
'Usage
Dim instance As SpeechRecognitionEngine
Dim settingName As String
Dim updatedValue As Integer

instance.UpdateRecognizerSetting(settingName, _
    updatedValue)

public void UpdateRecognizerSetting(
    string settingName,
    int updatedValue
)

Parameters

• settingName
  Type: System.String
  The name of the speech recognition engine setting.

• updatedValue
  Type: System.Int32
  The updated value of the speech recognition engine setting.

Remarks

Property values set using the UpdateRecognizerSetting() methods remain in effect only for the current instance of SpeechRecognitionEngine, after which they revert to their default settings.

To return one of the recognizer's settings, use the QueryRecognizerSetting method. See UpdateRecognizerSetting for descriptions of supported settings.

Examples

The following example is part of a console application that outputs the values for a number of the settings defined for the recognizer that supports the en-US locale. The example updates the confidence level settings, and then queries the recognizer to check the updated values. The example generates the following output.

Settings for recognizer MS-1033-80-DESK:

  ResourceUsage                  is not supported by this recognizer.
  HighConfidenceThreshold        = 80
  NormalConfidenceThreshold      = 50
  LowConfidenceThreshold         = 20
  ResponseSpeed                  = 150
  ComplexResponseSpeed           = 500


Updated settings:

  ResourceUsage                  is not supported by this recognizer.
  HighConfidenceThreshold        = 60
  NormalConfidenceThreshold      = 40
  LowConfidenceThreshold         = 15
  ResponseSpeed                  = 150
  ComplexResponseSpeed           = 500
