Chapter 15 ■ Implementing Game Audio Assets: Using the JavaFX AudioClip Class Audio Sequencing Engine
Figure 15-16. Use the Generate Setters dialog and create six .setiSound() methods
Now we are ready to use these six new .setiSound() methods that NetBeans has coded for us, which we do not
need, as our AudioClips are permanently “set” in memory using the .loadAudioAssets() method, to create the six
.playiSound() methods that we do in fact need to play back these six digital audio assets. Let’s do that next.
Providing Access to Your AudioClip: The .playiSound( ) Methods
What we are about to do is what I consider another programmer’s shortcut, but instead of copy and paste, I used
NetBeans Source ➤ Insert Code function to create Setter methods for the iSound objects that I am going to change
from .setiSound() to .playiSound() methods, so that I do not have to type out all six of these method bodies. As you
can see in Figure 15-17, NetBeans created six complete method bodies for us, and all that we have to do is to remove
the AudioClip iSound references inside of the method parameter areas, change the setiSound() to be playiSound(),
and finally change the this.iSound0 = iSound0; statement to be this.iSound0.play(); instead. We will do this for
each of the six .setiSound() method bodies, which will allow us to quickly create six .playiSound() method bodies.
