Some of These are in Applet and some in parent (in particular Component)
|
|
public void init() is called ONCE and ONCE only when the applet is loaded or reloaded. Set initial parameters etc. here.
|
|
public void destroy() is what you do when Applet is entirely finished and you need to clean up stray threads or connections to be closed.
|
|
public void start() is called whenever the applet is started which can happen several times during an applet's life-cycle as it starts each time you revisit a page
|
|
public void stop() is called when we temporarily leave Applet to visit another page. A wise move would be to suspend running of Threads to save system resources.
