[SOLVED] Resource limit in jars? Sound problems.

[OrangeDog]

Hi, I'm currently writing applets using digital filtering techniques. The problem I have is that the sound files I'm using are truncated when viewing the applet online. When viewed using appletviewer they are the correct length. I'm using getResourceAsStream() to load the sound data. Is there a size limit on resources you load from jars or is something else going on?
Thanks.

I think it is somewhere else:

Spellex SDK for Java(TM) support

I saw something recently which gives me cause for pause whenever data transmission block goes over 4k minus control header space,... rioutine traffic on any given minute of internet activity streams copiously in excess of what I would think your DSP project would likely use. Third Light has "Online Galleries Of Your Pictures" so it would not be them. At SCRF it's no news is good news, so ( I guess ) let's see some code.

dot jar files and ....

we see things like this all the time:

	/* Workaround for bug 4155072.  The shared double buffer image
	 * may hang on to a reference to this applet; unfortunately 
	 * Image.getGraphics() will continue to call JApplet.getForeground()
	 * and getBackground() even after this applet has been destroyed.
	 * So we ensure that these properties are non-null here.
	 */

So I would start by going back to scratch zero and placing File.write( various data values in your program at random points around the trouble area ) which is what all the experiences coders do in this situation..

Here's the relevant code in Prototype2:

Loading:

public void run() {
    try {
        InputStream is = Applet.class.getResourceAsStream("test.wav");
        AudioInputStream in = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(is);
        if (!in.getFormat().matches(format)) {
            throw new IOException("Audio data is not in the correct format.");
        }
        if (in.getFrameLength() > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
            throw new IOException("Audio data is too long.");
        }
        soundClip = new byte[(int)in.getFrameLength() * format.getFrameSize()];
        in.read(soundClip, 0, soundClip.length);
        in.close();
        playButton.setEnabled(true);
    }
    catch (IOException e) {
        System.err.println("I/O error: " + e.getMessage());
    }
    catch (UnsupportedAudioFileException e) {
        System.err.println("I/O error: " + e.getMessage());
    }
}

Playing:

public void run() {
    line.start();
    for (int i=0; i<soundClip.length; i+=bufsize) {
        line.write(soundClip, i, bufsize);
    }
    line.close();
}

Is there a workaround/fix or do I just have to use smaller input files?

Wait for Hardwired or Fubarable ...

Fixed it. Seems that the AudioInputStream.read() was unable to tell how long the stream was.
