I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...
I personally made this code that works fine. I think it only works with .wav format.
ReplyDeletepublic static synchronized void playSound(final String url) {
new Thread(new Runnable() { // the wrapper thread is unnecessary, unless it blocks on the Clip finishing, see comments
public void run() {
try {
Clip clip = AudioSystem.getClip();
AudioInputStream inputStream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(Main.class.getResourceAsStream("/path/to/sounds/" + url));
clip.open(inputStream);
clip.start();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println(e.getMessage());
}
}
}).start();
}
A bad example:
ReplyDeleteimport sun.audio.*; //import the sun.audio package
import java.io.*;
//** add this into your application code as appropriate
// Open an input stream to the audio file.
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(Filename);
// Create an AudioStream object from the input stream.
AudioStream as = new AudioStream(in);
// Use the static class member "player" from class AudioPlayer to play
// clip.
AudioPlayer.player.start(as);
// Similarly, to stop the audio.
AudioPlayer.player.stop(as);
The Sound Trail of the Java Tutorial is worth being the starting point.
ReplyDeleteThere is an alternative to importing the sound files which works in both applets and applications: convert the audio files into .java files and simply use them in your code.
ReplyDeleteI have developed a tool which makes this process a lot easier. It simplifies the Java Sound API quite a bit.

Hope this helps.
