An instance of the AudioFileFormat class describes an audio file, including the file type, the file's length in bytes, the length in sample frames of the audio data contained in the file, and the format of the audio data.
The AudioSystem class includes methods for determining the format of an audio file, obtaining an audio input stream from an audio file, and writing an audio file from an audio input stream.
An AudioFileFormat object can include a set of properties. A property is a pair of key and value: the key is of type String, the associated property value is an arbitrary object. Properties specify additional informational meta data (like a author, copyright, or file duration). Properties are optional information, and file reader and file writer implementations are not required to provide or recognize properties.
The following table lists some common properties that should be used in implementations:
Audio File Format Properties
Property key Value type Description
"duration" Long playback duration of the file in microseconds
"author" String name of the author of this file
"title" String title of this file
"copyright" String copyright message
"date" Date date of the recording or release
"comment" String an arbitrary text

Constructor.
Construct an audio file format object with a set of defined properties. This public constructor may be used by applications to describe the properties of a requested audio file. The properties map will be copied to prevent any changes to it.
type - the type of the audio file - javax.sound.sampled.AudioFileFormat$Type
format - the format of the audio data contained in the file - javax.sound.sampled.AudioFormat
frame-length - the audio data length in sample frames, or AudioSystem.NOT_SPECIFIED - int
properties - a Map<String,Object> object with properties - java.util.Map

(get-byte-length this)
Obtains the size in bytes of the entire audio file (not just its audio data).
returns: the audio file length in bytes - int

returns: the audio data format - javax.sound.sampled.AudioFormat
Obtains the format of the audio data contained in the audio file. returns: the audio data format - `javax.sound.sampled.AudioFormat`
(get-frame-length this)
Obtains the length of the audio data contained in the file, expressed in sample frames.
returns: the number of sample frames of audio data in the file - int
Obtains the length of the audio data contained in the file, expressed in sample frames. returns: the number of sample frames of audio data in the file - `int`
(get-property this key)
Obtain the property value specified by the key. The concept of properties is further explained in the class description.
If the specified property is not defined for a particular file format, this method returns null.
key - the key of the desired property - java.lang.String
returns: the value of the property with the specified key,
or null if the property does not exist. - java.lang.Object

(properties this)
Obtain an unmodifiable map of properties. The concept of properties is further explained in the class description.
returns: a Map<String,Object> object containing
all properties. If no properties are recognized, an empty map is
returned. - java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Object>
