/**
* The <code>Line</code> interface represents a mono or multi-channel
* audio feed. A line is an element of the digital audio
* "pipeline," such as a mixer, an input or output port,
* or a data path into or out of a mixer.
* <p>
* A line can have controls, such as gain, pan, and reverb.
* The controls themselves are instances of classes that extend the
* base <code>{@link Control}</code> class.
* The <code>Line</code> interface provides two accessor methods for
* obtaining the line's controls: <code>{@link #getControls getControls}</code> returns the
* entire set, and <code>{@link #getControl getControl}</code> returns a single control of
* specified type.
* <p>
* Lines exist in various states at different times. When a line opens, it reserves system
* resources for itself, and when it closes, these resources are freed for
* other objects or applications. The <code>{@link #isOpen()}</code> method lets
* you discover whether a line is open or closed.
* An open line need not be processing data, however. Such processing is
* typically initiated by subinterface methods such as
* <code>{@link SourceDataLine#write SourceDataLine.write}</code> and
* <code>{@link TargetDataLine#read TargetDataLine.read}</code>.
*<p>
* You can register an object to receive notifications whenever the line's
* state changes. The object must implement the <code>{@link LineListener}</code>
* interface, which consists of the single method
* <code>{@link LineListener#update update}</code>.
* This method will be invoked when a line opens and closes (and, if it's a
* {@link DataLine}, when it starts and stops).
*<p>
* An object can be registered to listen to multiple lines. The event it
* receives in its <code>update</code> method will specify which line created
* the event, what type of event it was
* (<code>OPEN</code>, <code>CLOSE</code>, <code>START</code>, or <code>STOP</code>),
* and how many sample frames the line had processed at the time the event occurred.
* <p>
* Certain line operations, such as open and close, can generate security
* exceptions if invoked by unprivileged code when the line is a shared audio
* resource.

* to the line's listeners.
* <p>
* Note that some lines, once closed, cannot be reopened. Attempts
* to reopen such a line will always result in an <code>LineUnavailableException</code>.
* <p>
* Some types of lines have configurable properties that may affect
* resource allocation. For example, a <code>DataLine</code> must
* be opened with a particular format and buffer size. Such lines
* should provide a mechanism for configuring these properties, such
* as an additional <code>open</code> method or methods which allow
* an application to specify the desired settings.
* <p>
* This method takes no arguments, and opens the line with the current
* settings. For <code>{@link SourceDataLine}</code> and
* <code>{@link TargetDataLine}</code> objects, this means that the line is
* opened with default settings. For a <code>{@link Clip}</code>, however,
* the buffer size is determined when data is loaded. Since this method does not
* allow the application to specify any data to load, an IllegalArgumentException
* is thrown. Therefore, you should instead use one of the <code>open</code> methods
* provided in the <code>Clip</code> interface to load data into the <code>Clip</code>.
* <p>
