Problem in recording

I have a program that first plays: "please say your name". It then records the name.

Part of my code is:

try {
    AudioInputStream audio = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(new File("sth.wav"));
    Clip clip = AudioSystem.getClip();
    clip.open(audio);
    clip.start();
}
catch(UnsupportedAudioFileException uae) {
    System.out.println(uae);
}
catch(IOException ioe) {
    System.out.println(ioe);
}
catch(LineUnavailableException lua) {
    System.o开发者_JAVA百科ut.println(lua);
}

r.captureAudio();

Here r is an instance of the main class.

The problem is that the recording goes like this:

It first plays "please enter your name" and then plays what I record with mic.

I am a beginner and don't have much experience with Java.

What changes should I make so that the recording contains only the microphone input and not "please enter your name"?

I am not sure I completely understand your question.

Popping a JOptionPane (or modal JDialog) will block the GUI until dismissed.

If you pop one to say 'start recording', start the recording directly after that is closed and pop a new one with 'stop recording', the second will stop the rest of the program statements (but not the recording itself, as long as it is done in a Thread).

Try calling clip.drain(), this will block current thread until the clip has finished playing. After that you can start capturing.
