Discussion

Does not interrupt current speech. The kNoSpeechInterrupt flagbit is used to control the behavior of SpeakBuffer whencalled on a speech channel that is still busy. When the flag bitis not set, SpeakBuffer behavessimilarly to SpeakString and SpeakText.Any speech currently being produced on the specified speech channelis immediately interrupted, and then the new text buffer is spoken.When the kNoSpeechInterrupt flagbit is set, however, a request to speak on a channel that is stillbusy processing a prior text buffer will result in an error. Thenew buffer is ignored and the error synthNotReady isreturned. If the prior text buffer has been fully processed, thenew buffer is spoken normally. One way of achieving continuous speech without using callback functions is to continually call SpeakBuffer with the kNoSpeechInterrupt flagbit set until the function returns noErr.The function will then execute as soon as the first text bufferhas been processed.
