libsndfile is an audio manipulation tool written in C.

If you don't want to use the java.sound API (which is limited) or other java tools for audio conversions, you now have the option of using libsndfile as a native java library.

I didn't want to reinvent the wheel.

Using SWIG, I generated a java wrapper for libsndfile. The wrapper configuration exists in swig/libsndfile.i .

This project includes everything required to regenerate the wrapper for Windows 7, 64bit JDK1.7 (see swig/README.txt for prereqs). However, it can serve as a basis for generating for any operating system (see swig/generate_dlls.sh)

Concerned about performance of a java wrapper for a native DLL? Don't be. There are some example videos online (swig related?) that show java DLL wrappers to be extremely efficient.

I added a few simple junit tests to verify functionality, that can also be used as a basis for development.

This is a maven project.

If you are running a supported platform (currently, windows 7), download the most recent release ZIP and run 'install_dlls.sh' in cygwin.

Done!

This project can be extended to work on any platform, including OSX.

It simply involves writing a new set of generate.sh and install.sh scripts. I'm hoping to extend to OSX in the near future..

Enjoy.
