SCION RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Applet in Java
Applet is a predefined class in java.applet package used to design
distributed application. It is a client side technology. Applets are run on
web browser.
Advantage of Applet
• Applets are supported by most web browsers.
• Applets works on client side so less response time.
• Secured: No access to the local machine and can only access the server it
came from.
• Easy to develop applet, just extends applet class.
• To run applets, it requires the Java plug-in at client side.
• Android, do not run Java applets.
• Some applets require a specific JRE. If it required new JRE then it take
more time to download new JRE.

Life cycle of applet
init()
start()
stop
destroy
APPLET IN JAVA

4
init(): Which will be executed whenever an applet program start loading, it
contains the logic to initiate the applet properties.
start(): It will be executed whenever the applet program starts running.
stop(): Which will be executed whenever the applet window or browser is
minimized.
destroy(): It will be executed whenever the applet window or browser is
going to be closed (at the time of destroying the applet program
permanently).

Design applet program
We can design our own applet program by extending applet class in the
user defined class.
Syntax
class className extends Applet
{
......
// override lifecycle methods
......
}
Note: Whenever an applet program is running init() and start() will be
executed one after another, but stop() and destroy() will be executed if the
browser is minimized and closed by the end user, respectively.
Note: Applet program may or may not contain life cycle methods.

Running of applet programs
Applet program can run in two ways.
• Using html (in the web browser)
• Using appletviewer tool (in applet window)
Running of applet using html
In general no Java program can directly execute on the web browser except
markup language like html, xml etc.
Html support a predefined tag called <applet> to load the applet program
on the browser window.
Syntax
<applet code="udc.class">
height="100px"
width="100px"
</applet>

Example of applet program to run applet using html
Java code, JavaApp.java
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class JavaApp extends Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
Font f=new Font("Arial",Font.BOLD,30);
g.setFont(f);
setForeground(Color.red);
setBackground(Color.white);
g.drawString("Student",200,200);
}
}
Html code, myapplet.html
<html>
<title> AppletEx</Title>
<body>
<applet code="JavaApp.class"
height="70%“ width="80%">
</applet>
</body>
</html>

If applet code not run on browser then allow blocked contents.
Running of applet using appletviewer
• Some browser does not support <applet> tag so that Sun MicroSystem
was introduced a special tool called appletviewer to run the applet
program.
• In this Scenario Java program should contain <applet> tag in the
commented lines so that appletviewer tools can run the current applet
program.

Example of Applet
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
/*<applet code="LifeApp.class" height="500“ ,width="800"> </applet>*/
public class LifeApp extends Applet
{
String s= " ";
public void init()
{
s=s+ " int ";
}
public void start()
{
s=s+ "start ";

}
public void stop() {
s=s+ "stop "; }
public void destroy() {
s=s+ " destory ";
}
public void paint(Graphics g) {
Font f=new Font("Arial",Font.BOLD,30);
setBackgroundColor(Color."red");
g.setFont(f);
g.drawString(s,200,250);
}
}

Execution of applet program
javac LifeApp.javaappletviewer LifeApp.java
Note: init() always execute only once at the time of loading applet window
and also it will be executed if the applet is restarted.
Factory Method in Java
A factory method is one whose return type is similar to the class name in
which class is present. The purpose of factory method is to create an object
without using new operator.
APPLET IN JAVA

20
Rules for writing factory method
• The return type of the factory method must be similar to class name in
which class it presents.
• Every factory method in java is static.
• The access specifies of the factory method must be public.
