Question

I want to convert my current latitude,longitude text into speech.I have code for finding current latitude,longitude.But i initialize the TextToSpeech method inside Location class i got only latLongString.I couldn’t get EX:your current location is lat=1.222,long=22.335.

Here my Code:

public class SpeakActivity extends Activity implements OnInitListener{
         private TextToSpeech tts;


    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_speak);



        LocationManager locationManager; 
        String context = Context.LOCATION_SERVICE; 
        locationManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(context); 

        Criteria crta = new Criteria(); 
        crta.setAccuracy(Criteria.ACCURACY_FINE); 
        crta.setAltitudeRequired(false); 
        crta.setBearingRequired(false); 
        crta.setCostAllowed(true); 
        crta.setPowerRequirement(Criteria.POWER_LOW); 
        String provider = locationManager.getBestProvider(crta, true); 

       // String provider = LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER; 
        Location location = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(provider); 

       tts = new TextToSpeech(this, this);
        updateWithNewLocation(location);    

    }


    public void speak(String text2say){

             tts.speak(text2say, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);

          }

    @Override

       public void onInit(int status) {


          say("latLongString");    

       }






    private void updateWithNewLocation(Location location) { 
        String latLongString;
        TextView myLocation; 
        myLocation= (TextView) findViewById(R.id.myLocation);



        if(location!=null) { 

        double lat = location.getLatitude(); 
        double lon = location.getLongitude(); 
        latLongString = "Lat:" + lat + "\nLong:" + lon;     

        }else{

            latLongString="no location found";
        }
        myLocation.setText("Your current position is:\n" + latLongString);

        speak(latLongString);

    }




    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_speak, menu);
        return true;
    }

@Override

public void onDestroy() {

   if (tts!= null) {

      tts.stop();

      tts.shutdown();

   }   

   super.onDestroy();

}}

Pass your lat long string into text in speakOut() as in example given by spk. And call this function to get speak.

private void speakOut() {

        String text = txtText.getText().toString();

        tts.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);
    }
