[mp3encoder] text to speech application - will lame solve my problem?

[Andreas Karlsson]

Hi guys,
I'm into writing an application in JAVA that takes the output from a TTS (Text 
to speech) engine and outputs that as a mp3 stream on a webpage.
My problem is the TTS-engine generating raw PCM as output and I have to start 
sending the mp3-stream before the TTS is done since 10 second of speeach takes 
10 second to generate.
I read some parts from the LAME documentation and I'm into trying calling the 
command line version of LAME (linux) from within my program with something like 
cat PCMFileUnderConstruction | lame -r -m m -b 32 -s 22.05 - - > output.mp3

The raw PCM is sampled with 22.05 kHz.

Will this work, reading from a file that the TTS is still generating?
I want Lame to process the content being written to that file until the file 
PCMFileUnderConstruction is closed.

brgds
Andreas
