Class AudioMetaData

java.lang.Object
  ddf.minim.AudioMetaData

public abstract class AudioMetaData
extends java.lang.Object

AudioMetaData provides information commonly found in ID3 tags. However, other audio formats, such as Ogg, can contain similar information. So rather than refer to this information as ID3Tags or similar, I simply call it metadata. This base class returns the empty string or -1 from all methods and derived classes are expected to simply override the methods that they have information for. This is a little less brittle than using an interface because later on new properties can be added without breaking existing code.
