Foil 14 Applet Flow of Control

From Introduction to Java ECS400 Senior Undergraduate Course -- Spring Semester 1996. by Nancy J. McCracken * See also color IMAGE

Each applet's flow of control goes through a sequence of standard methods:
  • public void init() {...}
  • executed once when applet is downloaded to the browser.
  • public void start(){...}
  • executed each time the browser window is entered.
  • public void paint(){...}
  • executed whenever you want to draw in the window.
  • public void stop(){...}
  • executed each time the browser window in exited.
  • public void destroy(){...}
  • executed just before the applet exits.
See ColorBoxes examples with init and start.
