Question:
I am trying to create a Java routine to play an .au file whenit starts up (I want to then add this as a startup to my Web page).
I have been hacking for the last few days, but cannot get it tocompile. I think I am missing something obvious.
Answer:
Here’s an example of how to play an audio clip from an applet.The following applet plays a short audio clip whenever the uservisits that Web page:
This applet doesn’t even have to consume any screen real estate onyour Web page — the width and height can be zero:import java.applet.*;import java.awt.*;import java.net.*;public class AudioPlay extends Applet { String loopFile = “music.au”; AudioClip clip; public void init() { clip = getAudioClip(getCodeBase(), loopFile); start(); } public void start() { clip.play(); } public void stop() { clip.stop(); }}
