Question

I am trying to convert a string into audio stream to play the string content. Code is below.

public void generateSound() {
    try {

        String audioString = "hello";
        AudioInputStream inputStream=null;
        ByteArrayOutputStream byt = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        byt.write(audioString.getBytes());
        AudioFormat format = new AudioFormat(44100, 16, 1, false, true);
        Clip clip = AudioSystem.getClip();
        InputStream input = new ByteArrayInputStream(byt.toByteArray());
        AudioInputStream ais =new AudioInputStream(input, format, byt.toByteArray().length / format.getFrameSize());
        clip.open(inputStream);
        clip.start(); 
    } catch (Exception e) {
    }
}

I don’t know whether this is correct or not. If not what is the possible way to play the string content?

Certainly not like that – but it sounds like you want a Java Speech implementation, like this one (FreeTTS).
