    An applet is a small Java application that can be embedded into an HTML file and run in a web browser or applet viewer. It allows displaying images and text, receiving user input, and playing sounds on a web page. To create an applet, a Java source code file is written, compiled, and embedded into an HTML file using applet tags. When the HTML file is opened in a browser, it loads and runs the applet. An applet goes through initialization, running, idle, and destruction life cycle states.

    What is an Applet?

    o Program that runs in


    • appletviewer (test utility for applets)
    • Web browsers that support them
    • Executes when HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)
    document containing applet is opened and
    downloaded
     Java Application programs run in command windows
    What Java Applet can do?

    • display message and image on a web page


    • draw picture on a web page
    • receive input from the user through keyboard or mouse
    • play Sound
    Steps in Creating a Java Applet

    Open the
    Write the
    Write a HTML
    Java
    Compile HTML to file in
    Applet
    it call the browser
    Source
    Applet and run
    Code
    it
    Write the Java Applet Source Code

    import java.applet.Applet;
    import java.awt.Graphics;
    public class HelloWorldApplet extends Applet
    {
    public void paint(Graphics g)
    {
    g.drawString("Hello world!", 50, 25);
    }
    }
    Compile it

    • Create HelloWorldApplet.class file


    Write a HTML to call the Applet

    <html>
    …….
    <applet CODE=“HelloWorldApplet.class"
    WIDTH="250"
    HEIGHT="220">
    </applet>
    ……
    </html>
    Open the HTML file in browser and run it

    • If the browser does not support applets, then use appletviewer to


    run the applet
    HelloWorldApplet

    • import java.applet.*;
    • import java.awt.*;

    • public class HelloWorldApplet extends Applet


    • {
    • public void paint (Graphics g)
    • {
    • g.drawString ("Hello World", 25, 50);
    • }
    • }
    Life Cycle of an applet

    • When an applet is loaded, it undergoes a series of


    changes in its state. The applet states include
    1. Born or initialization state
    2. Running state
    3. Idle state
    4. Dead or destroyed state
    Life Cycle of an applet
    Initialization state

    • Applet enters this state when it is first loaded


    • This is achieved by calling init() method
    • The init( ) method is the first method to be called
    • Initialize variables in this method
    • This method is called only once during the life time of an applet
    Running state

    • • Applet enters into running state when it calls start() method • The
    start( ) method is called after init( ) • It is also called to restart an
    applet after it has been stopped • Where as init( ) is called only once,
    start() method may be called any number of times • When a user
    leaves a web page and comes back, the applet resumes execution
