Well i had developen a sismilar application long back ...
it was an alarm system .
whenever an alarm triggered i had to pop up a message on the screen
and play a sond
i had achived it with dialog in awt..
public void optionPane(String message,Component c)
{
JOptionPane optionPane = new JOptionPane(message,
JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
optionPane.setOpaque(false);
final JDialog dialog = optionPane.createDialog(c,
" Image Uploader");
dialog.setVisible(true);
}
for audio i had used AudioClip (applet class)
import java.applet.*;
AudioClip ac = getAudioClip(getCodeBase(), soundFile);
ac.play(); //play once
ac.stop(); //stop playing
ac.loop(); //play continuously
also we have sun api for playing sound...
