Foil 37 Applications Versus Applets - II

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


1 Applets should NOT have main method but rather init, stop, paint etc.
2 They should be run through javac compiler getting a .class file as before
3 Create an HTML file (say HelloWorld.HTML in same directory as .class file) and include in this
4 <applet code="Example.class" width=500 height=200 > </applet> in simplest case with no parameters where applet will run in window of given width and height (in pixels)
5 If you have JDK on one's machine, one can run the applet with appletviewer HelloWorld.html
6 Alternatively run Netscape 2.0 essentially anywhere and applet is interpreted and run by Java interpreter built into Netscape.
7 This way we can compile on places with JDK installed but run almost anywhere!
