Playing audio in java using Sun.audio

I want just to perform a simple task. (I'm a java newbie). I want to play an audio clip when a button is clicked. here's the part of my code(which I did exactly by copying a tutorial from Youtube.)

private void btnPlayActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                         
InputStream in;
try{
      in=new FileInputStream(new File("C:\\Users\\Matt\\Documents\\dong.wav"));
      AudioStream timeupsound=new AudioStream(in);
      AudioPlayer.player.start(timeupsound);

}
catch(Exception e){
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, e);
}

}

But the problem is, this doesn't work. It throws and IOException saying: "could not create audio stream from input stream". My question is, what am I doing wrong? (as I clearly saw this code work in that youtube video, and I've used the same code. Please help. and once again, I'm a newbie);

The sun package classes should be causing some informative warnings at compile time. Heed them. Don't use classes in that package hierarchy. They are undocumented, are not guaranteed from one Java version to the next, and will probably not be available in a non-Oracle JRE at all.

Instead use the Java Sound based Clip to play audio. See the info. page for working examples.

Note

It might be the WAV is encoded in a format that Java Sound does not support. Media formats are typically 'container formats' that might be encoded using any number of different Codecs. It is likely that WAV is using a more compressive Codec such as MP3 or OGG internally.

I don't know of a Service Provider Interface for the OGG format, but if they are encoded as MP3, you might be able to get it working using the MP3 SPI. See the info. page linked above for details.

Tip

Also change code of the form:

catch (Exception e) { ..

catch (Exception e) { 
    e.printStackTrace(); // very informative! ...
