Applets in Java
Not Apples
Presented By: Wani Zahoor

Introduction
 Applet is small java program that can be easily
transported over the network from one
computer to other.
 used in internet applications.
 embedded in an html page, can be downloaded
from the server and run on the client, so as to
do a specific kind of job.

Types of Java Programmes
 Standalone
 Web based

Difference between an
applet and application

APPLET CLASS
 java.applet.Applet is the
super class of the all the
applets.
 Applet class has a
predefined hierarchy

Applet Example
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class FirstApplet extends Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.drawString(“Welcome in Applets”,10,50);
}
}

Applet Life cycle
 An applet may move from one state to another
depending upon a set of default behaviours inherited in
the form of methods from ‘Applet’ class.
 These states are
 Born
 Running
 Idle
 Dead

Life cycle of Applet
 init() –
 creates the objects needed by the applet;
 sets up initial values, load font and images or set up colors.
 called only once during the lifetime of on Applet.
 start()-
 moves to this phase automatically after the initialization state.
 if the applet is stopped or it goes to idle state, start() method must be called in
order to force the applet again to the running state.
 paint() -
 This method is called each time to draw and redraw the output of an applet.
 stop()-
 idle state, once it is stopped from running
 destroy()-
 An applet goes to dead state when it is destroyed by invoking the destroy() method
of Applet class.
 It results in complete removal of applet from the memory.

Common Methods drawString()-
 member of Graphics class, used to output a string to an applet.
 It is typically called from within the paint() or update() method.
 void drawString(String msg,int a, int b)
 setBackground() & getBackground()
 belongs to Component class, used to set and get the background color.
 void setBackground(Color anyColor)
 predefined constants for each color, such as Color.red can be used.
 setForeground() & get Foreground()
 set and gets the color of the text to be displayed on the foreground of the
applet window.
 void setForeground(Color anyColor)
 showStatus()
 display any string in the status window of the browser
 void showString(String text)

Graphics class
import java.awt.* ;
import java.applet.* ;
public class DrawLineRect extends Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g){
g.drawRect(10,60,40,30);
g.fillRect(60,10,30,80);
g.fillOval(140,160,170,170);
g.drawRoundRect(10,100,80,50,10,10);
g.fillRoundRect(20,110,60,30,5,5);
g.drawArc(280,210,250,220,30,90);
g.drawLine(100,10,230,140);
g.drawLine(100,140,230,10);
}}
