Hey im trying to run background music when the user clicks the button. below is my coding. when i run the program, it says file cannot be found. any help would be appreciated

import javax.swing.*;
import sun.audio.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;

public class Sound {
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		JFrame frame = new JFrame();
		frame.setSize(200,200);
		JButton button = new JButton("Clcik me");
		frame.add(button);
		button.addActionListener(new AL());

	}
	
	public static class AL implements ActionListener{
		public final void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
			music();
		}
	}
	
	public static void music(){
		AudioPlayer MGP = AudioPlayer.player;
		AudioStream BGM;
		AudioData MD;
		ContinuousAudioDataStream loop = null;
		try{
			BGM = new AudioStream(new FileInputStream("C:\\test\\ha.wav"));
			MD = BGM.getData();
			loop = new ContinuousAudioDataStream(MD);
		}catch(IOException error){
			System.out.print("file not found");
		}
		
		MGP.start(loop);
	}

}

Use error.printStackTrace() instead of just printing "file not found".

Code works for me. I changed the .wav reference to a local file:

can you show me?

[NormR1]

BGM = new AudioStream(new FileInputStream("Audio/mysound.wav"));

[corby]

BGM = new AudioStream(new FileInputStream("Audio/mysound.wav"));

i did that and i still get file not found. i have a bunch of warning signs on a bunch of my lines in the program. is it possibly because of my settings in eclipse?

[NormR1]

Sorry, I don't know anything about your IDE.

[corby]

Sorry, I don't know anything about your IDE.

which one do you use?

Well, reading them seems to be a good place to start?

[NormR1]

I don't use an IDE. I have an enhanced editor with syntax highlighting and commmandlines I can set. Compiles can take < 1 second.

i am not sure how to handle the warnings. this is an example of the warning:
- Access restriction: The type AudioPlayer is not accessible due to restriction on required library C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\rt.jar
- Access restriction: The type AudioPlayer is not accessible due to restriction on required library C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\rt.jar
- Access restriction: The field player from the type AudioPlayer is not accessible due to restriction on required library C:\Program Files\Java
\jre6\lib\rt.jar

Eclipse is obviously not happy that you are directly accessing sun classes. Those are just warnings though and won't prevent you from using them.

Did you change your catch block to print the stack trace of the IOException?

yea i changed some settings in eclipse to fix the warnings and the stack trace prints this:

Have you tried a different wav file?

[corby]

Have you tried a different wav file?

no ill try that now

[corby]

Have you tried a different wav file?

hey i tried a differen wav file and it worked. The orignal file was like 9 kb and this one about 100 kb. So dize the memory size matter?

[Ezzaral]

I wouldn't think so. Perhaps it was just an incompatible file or it was corrupted.

I have a problem with this...

import javax.swing.*;
import sun.audio.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;

public class PikaPlatformer
{

   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   //  Creates and displays the application frame.
   //-----------------------------------------------------------------
   public static void main (String[] args)
   {
      JFrame frame = new JFrame ("Direction");
      frame.setDefaultCloseOperation (JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

      frame.getContentPane().add (new PikaPlatformerPanel());

      frame.pack();
      frame.setVisible(true);
   }
}

How would I insert sound into this I just want music to play in my game. Any suggestions?( this is just the jFrame)

1)Please do not hijack old thread.
2)The answer of how to run it should already be in those posts (using AudioStream class).
