How to play .wav files with java

Question

Hi , I am trying to play a .wav file with java. I need it when a button is pressed to play a short beep sound. I have google it but most of the code wasn't working. Can someone give me a simple code to play a .wav file.

Answer 1

The snippet here works fine, tested with windows sound:

public static void main(String[] args) {
        AePlayWave aw = new AePlayWave( "C:\\WINDOWS\\Media\\tada.wav" );
        aw.start();     
}

Have a look at the open source project jlGui at http://www.javazoom.net/jlgui/jlgui.html which has a BasicPlayer that supports "MP3, OGG Vorbis, FLAC, MONKEY's AUDIO, WAV, AIFF, AU and SPEEX audio formats".
