| Hi, I would like to create a program that would be able to get and set
the infos of an MP3 file like the artist,title....
Is it possible? If Yes, than what is the class I am looking for?

Java is not especially good when it comes to media handling.
The JMF was released some years ago, and the Power Pack
versions on Win/Linux load MP3s, but even they do not support
changing the MP3 artist/title etc.
Java 7 looks to include 'native player' support, but at first it
will be simple things like opening the track in a player, starting
and stopping it - no editing.

Search for "java id3 tags" and you'll find that there are a number of
existing libraries to help you with this.

Are you talking about <http://jid3.blinkenlights.org/>?
If so, I just downloaded their tar.gz. They seem to be distributing a
NetBeans project (not the best way to distribute code).
The good news is that NB projects have a dist/ folder, in which one can find
the JID3.jar (another violation of convention - JAR files are usually named in
lower-case) and a javadoc/ directory.
Extract the JID3.jar and put it in your project's class path. This is the
same for any Java library distributed as a JAR - you put the JAR in your
project's class path.
http://java.sun.com has some excellent tutorials, many of which deal with
class paths and JAR files.

Or, are you talking about https://jid3lib.dev.java.net?
If so, you need to build the package (with Ant and build.xml that
comes with jid3lib), then put the resulting jar files somewhere in
your classpath.
