How to record / capture audio with RecordControl on Java ME, SE K770i

I want to record sound on my Java ME App on K770i. So I used this:

http://java.sun.com/javame/reference/apis/jsr135/javax/microedition/media/control/RecordControl.html

example of RecordControl in my code. It goes like this:

import java.util.Vector;

import javax.microedition.lcdui.Choice;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.Command;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.CommandListener;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.Display;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.Displayable;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.List;
import javax.microedition.media.Manager;
import javax.microedition.media.MediaException;
import javax.microedition.midlet.MIDlet;

import java.io.*;

import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import javax.microedition.media.*;
import javax.microedition.media.control.*;
import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
import javax.microedition.rms.*;

(...)

 try {
    // Create a Player that captures live audio.
    Player p = Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio");
    p.realize();
    // Get the RecordControl, set the record stream,
    // start the Player and record for 5 seconds.
    RecordControl rc = (RecordControl)p.getControl("RecordControl");
    开发者_开发百科ByteArrayOutputStream output = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    rc.setRecordStream(output);
    rc.startRecord();
    p.start();
    Thread.currentThread().sleep(5000);
    rc.commit();
    p.close();
 } catch (IOException ioe) {
 } catch (MediaException me) {
 } catch (InterruptedException ie) { }

But unfortunately when I try to build it, it tells me:

*** Creating directories ***
*** Compiling source files ***
..\src\example\audiodemo\AudioPlayer.java:121: cannot find symbol
symbol  : class RecordControl
location: class example.audiodemo.AudioPlayer
          RecordControl rc = (RecordControl)p.getControl("RecordControl");
          ^
..\src\example\audiodemo\AudioPlayer.java:121: cannot find symbol

          RecordControl rc = (RecordControl)p.getControl("RecordControl");
                              ^
2 errors

So my question is: why there is no RecordControl class if in documentations it is written this class should be there. Or is there other method to record / capture audio from microfone in Java ME of Sony Ericsson?

How do you record sound?

The reason might be that it does not support audio capture.

Try to get this value from the Sony phone.

System.getProperty("supports.audio.capture")

Write a simple midlet with a form appending the above statement. like below..

frm.append("Supports Audio:" + System.getProperty("supports.audio.capture"));

If this returns the false, then you are clear... The RecordControl wont work.

Few Sony phones dont support audio capture..like Sony p1i.

Hope this helps..

OK, so as i said I am java me newbie. So what I needed to do:

1) Added to MIDlet-Permissions in JAD and Manifest file to javax.microedition.media.control.RecordControl

2) In build.bat that I used from other demo project add inclusion of mmapi.jar, where the RecordControl is located in.

So i've added one last line shown here:

set CLDCAPI=%LIB_DIR%\cldcapi10.jar
set MIDPAPI=%LIB_DIR%\midpapi20.jar
set MMAPI=%LIB_DIR%\mmapi.jar

And according to this change updated two other lines of code:

%JAVAC% -bootclasspath %CLDCAPI%;%MIDPAPI%;%MMAPI% -source 1.3 -target 1.3 -d ..\tmpclasses -classpath ..\tmpclasses %JAVA_FILES%

%PREVERIFY% -classpath %CLDCAPI%;%MIDPAPI%;%MMAPI%;..\tmpclasses -d ..\classes ..\tmpclasses

And now everything compiles well. It was very lame isn't it?
