GWT audio recording

Question

Are there any options for recording audio in a GWT application ?

Options seem to include flex, perhaps a java applet or some other form of flash ?

Answer 1

Unfortunately it doesn't appear that there is any way to record audio using just JavaScript currently, so it won't be possible using GWT alone (since the GWT compiler only produces JavaScript).

However, Mozilla's Jetpack project includes a proposed Audio API that may make it possible. Keep in mind that this is a cutting-edge feature and will probably not be widely supported for a very long time.
