Java OpenAL (JOAL) is one of several wrapper libraries that allows Java programmers to access OpenAL. This allows Java programmers to use 3D sound in applications. JOAL is one of the libraries developed by the Game Technology Group at Sun Microsystems. JOAL is released under a BSD license, and is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Like its graphical counterpart, JOGL, JOAL was developed using the Gluegen utility, a program that generates Java bindings from C header files.
