Hello, I'm attempting to play a small WAV file on my FreeBSD box, running 4.4-STABLE and jdk1.3.1. Using the method described in almost every Java sound tutorial I've found results in the application simply waiting forever. Here is the source code that I'm using: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- import java.io.*; import java.applet.*; public class SoundTest { public static void main(String[] argv) { try { File file = new File(argv[0]); AudioClip clip = Applet.newAudioClip(file.toURL()); clip.play(); } catch(Exception ex) { ex.printStackTrace(); } } } ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Running the code results in no sound, and the jvm sitting at about 12% CPU usage until I ^C it. Is there another way to play an audio clip that I should try? Is the JDK capable of playing audio clips at all? Does the WAV file have to be in any particular format? I used the example (correctly encoded) WAV file provided on Sun's JavaSound Tutorial site. Any hints, pointers, or working example code will be much appreciated.
