How to read a .wav file from a .jar - Please Help!!!

Hello,
I know this is a stupid question but I keep having trouble doing this. My code is the following:
    Display display;
    Alert alert;
    InputStream stream;
    Player player;
stream = getClass().getResourceAsStream("newalert.wav");
            player = Manager.createPlayer(stream, "audio/wav");
            player.prefetch();
            player.start();
...I'm running this Midlet on a Motorola A1000 and I keep getting the following exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
stream is null
I've created the .jad package using KToolBar of the J2ME WTK2.2 with the appropriate .wav file on res folder.
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Paulo

Hi
If your stream is null, then the wav file cannot be reached. Try this code:
stream = getClass().getResourceAsStream("/newalert.wav");If this doesn't work either, make sure your wav file is directly in the res directory and not in another subdirectory of it. I suggets not running your application directly from the phone until it works from the WTK emulator.

How to Read a CAB File from JAVA?

Hi,
Anyone knows how to read a CAB File from java. I need to read a property file of txt file that is packaged in CAB file & then based on that, I have to do processing. Is there anyway to do it.
I had tried using java.util.zip.ZipFile Class, but it does work for JAR, but not for CAB.

Reading external xml files from a jar

Hi,
I am trying to read an xml file from a jar (which is not present inside the jar ) .
I am passing the file name as a string (like C:/folder/filename) to the SAXBuilder but it throwing
unknown protocol: c error.
i tried using an url , tried using a relative path but to no use.
Need help in this regard urgently.
TIA,
Regards,
Harsha

Hi,
Actually, my application needs to read two xml files , parse it, perform some operation and write
the result to an output file.
The names of the two xml files i mentioned, are specified in a properties file as absolute paths. (I even tried converting them to URIs)
The xml files are in the same directory as the jar ( i dont know if it should matter as i am giving the absolute path).
The main class reads the names of the files and passes the names as strings to the SAXBuilder.
This is where i am getting an exception.
Going by what you said, is it not possible for a java class to read a fie outside of the jar ? Is there no way to do this ? And right now i am not sure of how to go about this or if there's any work around . Any help would be appreciated.
Kindly reply at the earliest
TIA,
Harsha

Reading an xml file from a jar file

Short question:
Is it possible to read an xml file from a jar file when the dtd is
placed inside the jar file? I am using jdom (SAXBuilder) and the default
sax parser which comes with it.
Long Question:
I am trying to create an enterprise archive file on Weblogic 6.1. We
have a framework that is similar to the struts framework which uses it's
own configuration files
I could place the dtd files outside the jar ear file and specify the
absolute path in an environment variable in web.xml which is
configurable through the admin console.
But I want to avoid this step and specify a relative path within the jar
file.
I have tried to use a class which implements the entityresolver as well
as try to extend the saxparser and set the entity resolver within this
class explicitly, but I always seem to sun into problems like:
The setEntityresolver method does not get called or there is a
classloader problem. i.e. JDOM complains that it cannot load My custom
parser which is part of the application
Vijay

Please contact the main BEA Support team [email protected]
They will need to check with product support to determine
the interoperatablity of Weblogic Server with these other
products.

How to read an audio file from the disk and play it?

Do you know who to read an audio file from the hard disk and play it. It's for an application and not an applet. I tried with the Applet.newAudioClip(URL url) thing, but I keep getting a MalformedURLException.
And is there a way to get the path of the file you are using? Currently I'm doing this:
File file = new file("randomname");
string = file.getAbsolutePath();
file.delete();
I'm sure there's a better way. And this is not for an applet, just a normal app.

Below is a class that should be of use to you.
package com.sound;
import java.io.File;
import javax.sound.sampled.AudioFormat;
import javax.sound.sampled.AudioInputStream;
import javax.sound.sampled.AudioSystem;
import javax.sound.sampled.Clip;
import javax.sound.sampled.DataLine;
public class SoundPlayer implements Runnable {
     String filename;
     public SoundPlayer(String filename){
          this.filename = filename;
          Thread t = new Thread(this);
          t.start();
     }//SoundPlayer constructor
     public void run(){
          playSound();
     }//run method
     public boolean playSound(){
          try {
               File file = new File(filename);
               AudioInputStream stream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(file);
               AudioFormat     format = stream.getFormat();
               DataLine.Info info = new DataLine.Info(Clip.class, format);
               Clip clip = (Clip)AudioSystem.getLine(info);
               clip.open(stream);
               clip.start();
               while (clip.isRunning()) {
                   Thread.sleep(100);
               clip.close();
          catch (Exception e) {
              System.err.println("Error in run in SoundPlayer");
               return false;
          return true;

Unable to read a .gif file from a jar

I have made an application which requires some .gif images.
I packed all the classes and .gif's in a jar file.
I have used no package statement in files, all are in one folder.
While retrieving the .gif file from the jar I have used..
Image img1 = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(ClassLoader.getSystemResource("Lock.gif"));
ImageIcon i1=new ImageIcon(img1,"No Users");
but this does not works and throws nullpointer exception.
I have also tried getClass().getResource() etc.
But none of the methods are working..
Plz. help.

Is the class that is loading the image contained in a package? If the resource name does not start with a forward slash, it is interpreted as relative to the package of your class(when doing getClass().getResource())

Use a / with the name of your gif e.g.

How to read a XML file from BLOB column and insert in a table - PL/SQL Only

Hi,
To make data load more simple to end user instead placing file on the server and use SQL-LOADER, I came up with new idea that using oracle ebusiness suite attachment functionality. that loads a XML file from local PC to a database column(table is fnd_attachments, default data type is BLOB over here).
I tried with DBMS_LOB and didnt get around.
Please can anyone tell me how to read the BLOB column using PL/SQL and store the data in a oracle table. Here's the sample XML file and table structure FYI.

In regards to #3, use the COLUMNS functionality of XMLTable instead of using Extract. Two simple examples are

How to create a wav file from 24bit 96Khz sampling rate data

Hi
I am trying to make an VI which will play sound while acquiring data from PXI 4472 DAQ card.
My sampling rate is 96Khz and PXI 4472 card is a 24bit card.
Wave files are in 8 or 16 bit and the sampling rate is 8000, 11025, 22050 and 44100. How will I be able to play the data which I am acquiring.
How would i normalize the data into the required format needed for most of the sound cards to play.
Or are there any codec available in Windows XP which i call to play a 96KHz 24 bit sample
Does anybody ever encountered this type of problem.
Thanks in advance
Nitin

Whilst the 'standard' RIFF format specification usually accomodates 16 bit data, there is of course no reason that you can not create your own extension. It just won't be playable by Media player using the 'standard' installed drivers or codec. This may not be a problem....
WAV files can and do support other formats, you just need to know how to handle them......
There is howerver a 4GB limit (related to the pointer size in the WAV specification) which with higher bit depths on the sampling does start to become a bit of a problem.
To give you a few samples of other types of wav files check out the following site here
http://www-mmsp.ece.mcgill.ca/Documents/AudioFormats/WAVE/Samples.html
The following definitions for WAV audio formats may also be of interest here
http://www-mmsp.ece.mcgill.ca/Documents/AudioFormats/WAVE/WAVE.html
Good luck with 24 bits.

How to read an XML file from embedded PAR file?

You can't do that, at least not with an unsigned applet.
Sign your applet and it should work just like normal file access.
