Distributed Computing, M. L. Liu Java applets M. L. Liu Introduction Java applets are one of three kinds of Java programs: An application is a standalone program that can be invoked from the command line. An applet is a program that runs in the context of a browser session. A servlet is a program that is invoked on demand on a server program and that runs in the context of a web server process. Applets, web page, client, server Applets are programs stored on a web server, similar to web pages. When an applet is referred to in a web page that has been fetched and processed by a browser, the browser generates a request to fetch (or download) the applet program, then executes the program in the browser’s execution context, on the client host. Applet Execution - 1 An applet program is a written as a subclass of the java.Applet class or the javax.swing.Japplet class. There is no main method: you must override the start method. Applet objects uses AWT for graphics. JApplet uses SWING. It is a Grapics object that runs in a Thread object, so every applet can perform graphics, and runs in parallel to the browser process. Applet Execution When the applet is loaded, these methods are automatically invoked in order: the init( ) method is invoked by the Java Virtual Machine. The start( ) method The paint( ) method. The applet is now running and rendered on the web page. You program the start( ) method and the paint( ) method for your application, and invoke a repaint call to re-render the graphics, if necessary. At the end of the execution, the stop( ) method is invoked, followed by the destry( ) method to deallocate the applet’s resources. Applet Security /docs/books/tutorial/applet/overview/ For security reasons, applets that are loaded over the network have several restrictions. an applet cannot ordinarily read or write files on the computer that its executing on. an applet cannot make network connections except to the host that it came from.
