Re: [vtp-dev] Re: [JVoiceXML-developer] Text based VTP extension

My $.02:

Unfortuntately the current javadoc comment does not state directly the purpose of the capability. It reads:
This capability indicates that this VoiceXML browser is capable of responding to requests to sendInput().

sendInput() in turn uses VoiceXMLBrowserInput which can be used to deliverthe user's input as a string to the voice browser.

Our intention for text based interaction goes beyond this. It requires an additional VoiceXMLBrowserOutput. IMHO this can not be covered by the log panel.

So the current concepts point into this direction but require more thinking.

/dirk

Honestly, it's been so long, my memory is completely gone :)

 

If the interactive capability's purpose isn't clear to everyone, and there's no javadoc on the matter, that should say something..breaking the API is never a good idea if it can be avoided but I haven't seen any consumers of that constant in existence so I think it might be safer to clarify the naming.

I have looked at the patch. Looks OK on visual inspection, but I have
not yet checked it out live.

There has been a suggestion that CAPABILITY_TEXT be added to the
IVoiceXMLBrowser interface, and that be used to control the actual
availability of the text input. The patch has been implemented to check
the existing capability, CAPABILITY_INTERACTIVE to achieve that control.

As far as I know, CAPABILITY_INTERACTIVE was intended for just that
purpose -- to indicate the browser could interpret text utterances. Why
don't we leave it at that, and not put in the new capability?

Brent cooked all this up originally, perhaps he remembers a different
intent for CAPABILITY_INTERACTIVE.
