JavaFX on the other hand, is simple quick and does the work elegantly. There are a few issues I have with their design such as:
- No exception throwing!!!
- When playing media there are three threads been created and destroyed rapidly, for the entire duration of the playing. (WTH???)
In any case, I've needed a way to play my audio files but I didn't like this sort of API, so I've wrapped it with my own interfaces and all, but then I've learned that JavaFX needed to be initialized or it would throw:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Toolkit not initialized
So... here is what you need to do:
private void initJavaFX() {
final CountDownLatch latch = new CountDownLatch(1); new Thread(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { @SuppressWarnings("unused") JFXPanel p = new JFXPanel(); latch.countDown(); } }, "JavaFX-initializer").start(); try { latch.await(); } catch (InterruptedException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }
This would initialize JavaFX framework, and allow you to play media...
