Exception trying to play audio file

[Joachim Olga]

When trying to play a sound through my applet I get the following exception. How can I make it play the sound?

This is the code that creates the exception:

File file = new File("myWav.wav");
AudioClip clip = JApplet.newAudioClip(file.toURL());
clip.play();

Aha...

Instead of new File and toURL

getClass().getResource("myWav.wav");

...and there you got your URL.
