I have a JFrame application working nicely. However now I'd like to run it on the web as an Applet. This is what I've done:
import MyPackage.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class MyName extends JApplet
{
public void init() {
setSize(600,450);
new MyName()
}
public MyName() {
JShellFrame frame = new JShellFrame(true, null, null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
How can I make an html file to run this applet? Also, I have an external jar file that the applet will need. Does the applet not need a main method?
Check out Getting Started With Applets. It covers relevant methods and life cycle. It mentions main
method as well:
Unlike Java applications, applets do not need to implement a main method.
Deployment section covers HTML file details. For dependency jars you can specify more than one jar in archive
attribute of applet
tag.
