I suspect you're talking about something entirely different -
JFrame won't give you any sound playback ;). But, yes, using Java
would be one option except that Java is quite a heavy requirement
for such task ...
Yes of course ;) I menat with JFrame only a tiny GUI with a PLAY and
a STOP button. I wrote such a Java program and it works. The jar file
is about 30k and it is quite fast and I do not load the entire sound
file at once, only buffer by buffer (it only plays linear PCM audio
files aiff, linear wav, au, and some others).
Now I only try to avoid a GUI. It looks different on each OS, thus I
try to write a simple command line tool which appears in the task
bar. To simply stop the sound close that command line tool via the
task bar.
