How to play .wav files with java


I am trying to play a *.wav file with Java. I want it to do the following:
When a button is pressed, play a short beep sound.

I have googled it, but most of the code wasn't working. Can someone give me a simple code snippet to play a .wav file?


Solution

  • Finally I managed to do the following and it works fine

    import java.io.File;
    import java.io.IOException;
    
    import javax.sound.sampled.AudioFormat;
    import javax.sound.sampled.AudioInputStream;
    import javax.sound.sampled.AudioSystem;
    import javax.sound.sampled.DataLine;
    import javax.sound.sampled.LineUnavailableException;
    import javax.sound.sampled.SourceDataLine;
    
    public class MakeSound {
    
        private final int BUFFER_SIZE = 128000;
        private File soundFile;
        private AudioInputStream audioStream;
        private AudioFormat audioFormat;
        private SourceDataLine sourceLine;
    
        /**
         * @param filename the name of the file that is going to be played
         */
        public void playSound(String filename){
    
            String strFilename = filename;
    
            try {
                soundFile = new File(strFilename);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                System.exit(1);
            }
    
            try {
                audioStream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(soundFile);
            } catch (Exception e){
                e.printStackTrace();
                System.exit(1);
            }
    
            audioFormat = audioStream.getFormat();
    
            DataLine.Info info = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class, audioFormat);
            try {
                sourceLine = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(info);
                sourceLine.open(audioFormat);
            } catch (LineUnavailableException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                System.exit(1);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                System.exit(1);
            }
    
            sourceLine.start();
    
            int nBytesRead = 0;
            byte[] abData = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];
            while (nBytesRead != -1) {
                try {
                    nBytesRead = audioStream.read(abData, 0, abData.length);
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
                if (nBytesRead >= 0) {
                    @SuppressWarnings("unused")
                    int nBytesWritten = sourceLine.write(abData, 0, nBytesRead);
                }
            }
    
            sourceLine.drain();
            sourceLine.close();
        }
    }
