I'm currently trying to find a SDK or API that I can integrate into a Windows 8 Store App (C++). I have found several but they either require desktop APIs not accessable in Store Apps or is only for C# (Such as Bing Voice Recognition, which would be perfect if it was available for c++). I know there is minimal support for what I'm asking, but I've searched extensively so any help/suggestions on what to try or to use for very basic voice to text would be tremendously helpful.
Thank you!
If you are using a Windows 8 Store App (C++), the best option I found for using voice recognition is to use the AT&T Speech API. The C# have an SDK, but for C++ you can POST to their server using OAuth2 and get a JSON response back with the speech transcribed.

Google Chrome provide speech to text(STT) and So many smart phone apps provide STT. It has good recognition.
I want program in Visual Studio(MFC), But there's no methods to do STT. If I use Google Speech To Text Api, It's so easy to settle this problem.
If there's no public google api about STT, Tell me another way to this except with start.
To my knowledge, Google has not documented their speech API and do not intend it to be used by general purpose clients. I believe their intent is for the speech API to support their Android and Chrome products. That said, there is more information at Does Anyone Uses Google Speech API in Production? and Is there an API for Google's speech recognition technology?.
Since you're programming for Windows, why don't you use the built in Windows speech engine. You can use the System.Speech features of .Net or Microsoft.Speech and install the free recognizers Microsoft provides. Windows 7 includes a full speech engine. Others are downloadable for free. There is a C++ API to the same engines known as SAPI. See at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163663.aspx. or http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms723627(v=vs.85).aspx. More background on Microsoft engines for Windows
What is the difference between System.Speech.Recognition and Microsoft.Speech.Recognition?
One last link that I hope is helpful, here is a simple example of speech recogntion in .NET - SAPI and Windows 7 Problem
You may find this: https://gist.github.com/alotaiba/1730160 useful. Basically you need to send FLAC-encoded audio file to google servers in POST request. Be aware that it accept only audio files of 15 seconds of less (for simple voice command app it would be enough).
I'm looking into thing like this and MS Speech API isn't for me, even if is good, because it doesn't support most languages Google's API does (example being Polish, same for MS text-to-speech).
I am developing a mobile application with MonoTouch and Mono for Android, and possibly Win8. I need to access the Facebook API, and I would prefer to do that in C# given the above mentioned platforms.
I know that I can make HTTP requests towards the Facebook API myself, but I am wondering if there are any libraries that wraps these for me and give me an object model to program against. I have done some searching around but have mostly come across libraries that are no longer supported or shut down.
Does anyone have recent experience with my problem and can give recommendations?
This should help you get started with the facebook integration using Mono for Android.
I am not sure what limitations (if any) there are with regard to using these libraries on a mobile device, but there are some Facebook SDK's for C#.
Here is one -
facebook-csharp-sdk
I have decided to follow a native approach to get as close to a seamless integration as I can get.
For iOS that means https://github.com/mono/monotouch-bindings/tree/master/facebook which are bindings to the official Objective-C Facebook SDK. I have done login so far and that was very easy. With the access token in place I can make future Facebook API calls from a library like the above or I can create a Mono class library with a service that wraps HTTP calls. This service can then be reused in any C# project (such as Mono for Android).
My plan is to do something similar for Android. I have seen people compile the java library in MonoDevelop as an AndroidResource and then create a wrapper which calls into the Java.
What API is available to use Facebook from C or C++, and is there a library to do the grunt work for me? (So that you for instance can use Facebook from a desktop program written in C++.)
Thanks sehe.
Yes you are able to develop Facebook application using C/C++.
Here's a good API http://projects.seligstein.com/facebook/
You can develop a Facebook Application in whatever language you want, as long as you can ask for data over the network. The API does not care what language you are using to query it. The SDKs are only there as a starting point for languages that are commonly used to write applications, such as JavaScript and PHP.
EDIT:
I know the question has already been "answered", but since the asker changed their question, here is information about repositories on github which may serve as starting points for modern Open Graph API C++ applications. All of these are open source :)
https://github.com/search?type=Repositories&language=C%2B%2B&q=facebook&repo=&langOverride=&x=14&y=20&start_value=1
sure you can my facebook Graph mobile app is developed using Qt c++
How do you use cloud storage such as Dropbox in your C++ Apllication ? I've checked out their API and they only have Java, Python, and Ruby options. If you cant use dropbox with a c++ app, is therte any cloud storage provider that has an API for C++.
The drop box APIs seem to be wrappers for a http interface.
So if you want to hit them up from C++ you can use a http supporting library like libcurl to access stuff using the REST api
Droper is an open source C++/Qt Dropbox client that I have recently wrote. It can be compiled for Windows and Linux, but the GUI is optimized for Symbian mobile phones. Check it out.
I've found several differnet APIs on their website, righ under the place you propably found the ruby / pathon stuff..

Not sure if this is, wha you were looking for..
Our company has a set of 3d modeling softwares written in c++ with qt based gui. We are planning to offer these applications to customers to try them from a web browser. I mean to say, we need to create web interfaces for native c++ codes. Please suggest me which technology, languages should be used. If possible please give some links to some white papers or case studies for this kind of projects. I am totally clue less :)
Ideally you would keep your c++ code on the server and use a mixture of HTML and Javascript on the browser. However since 3d modeling is so client centric you may have to run some c++ code directly in the browser.
There are a few options to look at:
Emscripten
Adobe Alchemy
Google Native Client
A Java Applet using NestedVM
Netscape plugin API
ActiveX
You could also run a few instances of your application on your server inside an XVnc session and let people use it through a VNC viewer applet. The simplest solution however is still to offer a downloadable demo of your application.
Have a look at Wt
Take a look at Native Client.
Soon you might be use WebGL to do 3D in the browser. But how long it will take for browsers to include it I do not know. But it might be good to look at it to not rule out using it in the future.
If creating everything again is too expensive, always you can create a distributed application:
One program running the main application in C++ and generating (for example) XML files.
A web application reading the XML files generated by the C++ application and translating them into the web application language (for example Adobe Flex).
Good luck!
