## javax.sound.midi
Class MidiFileFormat

    java.lang.Object
      javax.sound.midi.MidiFileFormat

public class MidiFileFormat
extends Object

A `MidiFileFormat` object encapsulates a MIDI file's type, as well as its length and timing information.

See Also:
  `MidiSystem.getMidiFileFormat(java.io.File)`, `Sequencer.setSequence(java.io.InputStream stream)`

Field Summary
`protected int` | `byteLength` The length of the MIDI file in bytes.
`protected float` | `divisionType` The division type of the MIDI file.
`protected long` | `microsecondLength` The duration of the MIDI file in microseconds.
`protected int` | `resolution` The timing resolution of the MIDI file.
`protected int` | `type` The type of MIDI file.
`static int` | `UNKNOWN_LENGTH` Represents unknown length.

Constructor Summary
`MidiFileFormat(int type, float divisionType, int resolution, int bytes, long microseconds)` Constructs a `MidiFileFormat`.

Method Summary
`int` | `getByteLength()` Obtains the length of the MIDI file, expressed in 8-bit bytes.
`float` | `getDivisionType()` Obtains the timing division type for the MIDI file.
`long` | `getMicrosecondLength()` Obtains the length of the MIDI file, expressed in microseconds.
`int` | `getResolution()` Obtains the timing resolution for the MIDI file.
`int` | `getType()` Obtains the MIDI file type.

    `Sequence.PPQ`, `Sequence.SMPTE_24`, `Sequence.SMPTE_25`, `Sequence.SMPTE_30DROP`, `Sequence.SMPTE_30`

### resolution

    protected int resolution

  The timing resolution of the MIDI file.

### microsecondLength

    protected long microsecondLength

  The duration of the MIDI file in microseconds.

Constructor Detail

### MidiFileFormat

    public MidiFileFormat(int type,
                          float divisionType,
                          int resolution,
                          int bytes,
                          long microseconds)

  Constructs a `MidiFileFormat`.

Parameters:
  `type` - the MIDI file type (0, 1, or 2)
  `divisionType` - the timing division type (PPQ or one of the SMPTE types)
  `resolution` - the timing resolution
  `bytes` - the length of the MIDI file in bytes, or UNKNOWN_LENGTH if not known
  `microseconds` - the duration of the file in microseconds, or UNKNOWN_LENGTH if not known
See Also:
  `UNKNOWN_LENGTH`, `Sequence.PPQ`, `Sequence.SMPTE_24`, `Sequence.SMPTE_25`, `Sequence.SMPTE_30DROP`, `Sequence.SMPTE_30`

Method Detail

### getType

    public int getType()

  Obtains the MIDI file type.

  Returns:
    the file's type (0, 1, or 2)

### getDivisionType

    public float getDivisionType()

  Obtains the timing division type for the MIDI file.

  Returns:
    the division type (PPQ or one of the SMPTE types)
  See Also:
    `Sequence.Sequence(float, int)`, `Sequence.PPQ`, `Sequence.SMPTE_24`, `Sequence.SMPTE_25`, `Sequence.SMPTE_30DROP`, `Sequence.SMPTE_30`, `Sequence.getDivisionType()`

### getResolution

    public int getResolution()

  Obtains the timing resolution for the MIDI file. If the division type is PPQ, the resolution is specified in ticks per beat. For SMTPE timing, the resolution is specified in ticks per frame.

  Returns:
    the number of ticks per beat (PPQ) or per frame (SMPTE)
  See Also:
    `getDivisionType()`, `Sequence.getResolution()`

### getByteLength

    public int getByteLength()

  Obtains the length of the MIDI file, expressed in 8-bit bytes.

  Returns:
    the number of bytes in the file, or UNKNOWN_LENGTH if not known
  See Also:
    `UNKNOWN_LENGTH`

### getMicrosecondLength

    public long getMicrosecondLength()

  Obtains the length of the MIDI file, expressed in microseconds.

  Returns:
    the file's duration in microseconds, or UNKNOWN_LENGTH if not known
  See Also:
    `Sequence.getMicrosecondLength()`, `getByteLength()`, `UNKNOWN_LENGTH`
