/**
* A source data line is a data line to which data may be written. It acts as
* a source to its mixer. An application writes audio bytes to a source data line,
* which handles the buffering of the bytes and delivers them to the mixer.
* The mixer may mix the samples with those from other sources and then deliver
* the mix to a target such as an output port (which may represent an audio output
* device on a sound card).
* <p>
* Note that the naming convention for this interface reflects the relationship
* between the line and its mixer. From the perspective of an application,
* a source data line may act as a target for audio data.
* <p>
* A source data line can be obtained from a mixer by invoking the
* <code>{@link Mixer#getLine getLine} method of Mixer
with
* an appropriate <code>{@link DataLine.Info} object.
* <p>
* The <code>SourceDataLine interface provides a method for writing
* audio data to the data line's buffer. Applications that play or mix
* audio should write data to the source data line quickly enough to keep the
* buffer from underflowing (emptying), which could cause discontinuities in
* the audio that are perceived as clicks. Applications can use the
* <code>{@link DataLine#available available} method defined in the
* <code>DataLine interface to determine the amount of data currently
* queued in the data line's buffer. The amount of data which can be written
* to the buffer without blocking is the difference between the buffer size
* and the amount of queued data. If the delivery of audio output
* stops due to underflow, a <code>{@link LineEvent.Type#STOP STOP} event is
* generated. A <code>{@link LineEvent.Type#START START} event is generated
* when the audio output resumes.
