Play Audioclip with . wav in another JAVA package

Question

I use this code to play sounds in my application, but it only plays the audio if it is in the project folder, and not within a package. And if I export my project by creating a . jar it does not include the media files. I have tried to change the path by adding the package, in this case sounds, but it does not play "/sounds/audio.wav". Thanks.

try {
    AudioClip c = Applet.newAudioClip(new File("audio.wav").toURL());
    c.play();
} catch (MalformedURLException e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block
    e.printStackTrace();
}

Answer 1

If you have a directory from the project root, the correct path is:

"sons/audio.wav"

Note that you are without the bar. I recommend doing tests with the class File, creating a file and taking the full path or checking if it exists:

File f = new File("sons/audio.wav");
System.out.println(f.getAbsolutePath());
System.out.println(f.exists())

Answer 2

If you are in the resource folder you can use the getResourceAsStream:

...
AudioClip c = Applet.newAudioClip(Principal.class.getResource("/recurso/audio.wav").toURI().toURL());
c.play();
