Foil 36 Applications Versus Applets - I

From CRPC Lectures on Java Language Applets Graphics CRPC Annual Meeting Tutorial -- May 14,1996. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 Applications are .java files with a main class which reads arguments and is excuted first
2 One uses javac to compile the application converting .java to .class
3 Then run the interpreter java with the .class file as argument
4 .java files are in Java; .class files are in universal bytecodes
5 The resources javac and java are part of JDK and are not in Netscape and so are currently not broadly available. You must log in to our servers to use them
6 So instead in this course we will use applets so all the Java threads are distributed around and don't grind our servers to a halt
