2) We have no idea what help you need.
3) As a result of #2, you'd be better served by going through a tutorial.

  • Creating Java applet

    I have to create a Java applet, but I don't know how. It should display a simulation of running rabbit in 10 circles, explaining the For cycle in a programming language C. I tried to make it in NetBeans, but I couldn't. Can anubody please help me? Any hint, useful site or line of code... I would be very grateful.

    ..so I lose my nerves easy... In that case, I strongly suggest you re-read all your posts before sending them off. If they have a hint of 'lost nerves' they are likely to irritate the very people who might otherwise help you. I think you can guess that is not conducive to getting a good, timely, technical solution.
    ..OK, let's deal with the problem.
    I was looking for the solution of posted problem on the Internet and found that I should sign in my applet. Since I work in NetBeans, I enabled Web start because it looked like the fastest way to do it. .. That statement reads like nonsense to me. Perhaps NetBeans has some automagic script that presumes a JWS application needs to be digitally signed and does that for each build. If that is the case, I just found another reason to dislike it.
    ..My applet has database connection (connection to MySQL database - applet has text field and input from it is recorded in database) which works just fine in Applet Viewer. .. Are you launching the AppletViewer using NetBeans?
    ..When I enabled Web Start, I finally could see applet in Web page, but now I don't have database connection, there is no recording in database when I make input from text field...Are you looking for exceptions in the Java Console?
    The post you made earlier shows no sign of adding the Jar containing the DB driver to the archive attribute of the applet element. That is the most logical reason why the applet would not be able to connect to the DB.
    Note that I am still pretty unimpressed by your efforts to get help with this. I linked to an earlier thread where I asked you questions and you then abandoned the thread. You can partly restore my motivation to help by copy/pasting those questions to this thread and answering the questions.
    These problems will not be sorted by some 'magic line of code'. You need to understand what is happening. I see no sign you are gaining that understanding.

  • Help with creating an animated java applet...

    Hello, everyone! I'm working on a homework assignment for my Intro to Java class, and I'm having a problem I've never run into before. My assignment is to create a animated Java applet which displays an image of an alien spaceship which travels in diagonal lines across the applet area. My main problem is that when I try to compile my code, I get three "cannot find symbol" errors about my variable "alien." I can't figure out why declaring it as a class variable hasn't solved my problem. The errors pop up for the repaint() method, as well as the pane.add and the paintIcon. Here's my code:
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import javax.swing.Timer;
    class DrawAlien extends JPanel
    public class Alien extends JApplet implements ActionListener
      ImageIcon alien;
      public void init()
        Container pane = getContentPane();
        alien = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("alien.gif"));
        pane.setBackground(Color.black);
        pane.add(alien);
        Timer timer = new Timer(30, this);
        timer.start();
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
        alien.repaint();
    }I've only posted the section which I think is relevant to my problem, but I can post the rest if anyone thinks it's necessary.
    I'm aware that the code isn't ready yet in several other ways, but I don't think I can move on until I figure out what's up with the "alien" variable. I don't need anyone to write code for me or anything like that, I just lack perspective here. A couple hints in the right direction would be invaluable. Thanks!

    You can?t add ImageIcon into pane, you can do like below.
    alien = new ImageIcon(getClass().getResource("alien.gif"));
        pane.setBackground(Color.black);
        JLabel label = new JLabel(alien);
        pane.add(label);

  • Read, Write and create files from java applet.

    Dear All,
    I have created a two files. One is applet and one application file. I am creating a instance of application file in applet. Application file is used for reading, writing and creating files. When I invoke applet from broser it dipslays error wrt file access permission. From the forum search I know that we need to sign the applet / edit the java policy to run the code locally. Final delivery of my code should execute on different system. Its not web. I have created a html page on submitting the form it invokes applet to read the form values from param and needs to update the values in xml file located locally. Please help me on how I can proceed with this fix.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry if I have not stated the problem clearly. I need to update content to files hosted in local system using java applets.
    I belive there are two ways to achive that.One with jar signer and one with modifying the java policy file. But this application needs to be installed in different system locally as I have created a application with webpage as useinterface and need to update the content in local files on submission. Not sure on how to modify the java.policy files in each end user system and whats the value we need to update in java policy file. Please help me on the steps to be followed

  • Create a file at a Windows Vista using java applets

    I have created a java applet which is downloaded to create local file at a Windows Vista PC. The java codes are:
    File out = new File("c:/users/test/hkuesd.properties");
    FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(out);
    PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(fw, true);
    pw.println("#sample property file");
    pw.println("key_path=C:/");
    pw.close();
    fw.close();
    If I turn off "Users Account Control" under "Control Panel" --> "User Accounts", the file "hkuesd.properties" is created at c:\users\test and can be found using windows explorer.
    However, if I turn on "Users Account Control", I can not find the file "hkuesd.properties" using windows explorer. But the file can be detected if I run another java applet program with the following codes:
    File xpdir = new File("c:/users/test/hkuesd.properties");
    FileInputStream fis = null;
    if (xpdir.exists()) {
    try {
    fis = new FileInputStream("c:/users/test/hkuesd.properties");
    Properties p = new Properties();
    p.load(fis);
    fis.close();
    privateKeyPath = p.getProperty("key_path", "no value");
    catch (Exception e) {}
    Interestingly, if "Users Account Control" is on and I created the file "c:\users\test\hkuesd.properties" manually, the file creation codes
    mentioned above seems to create another "hkuesd.properties" at the same "c:\users\test". The evidence is I run the second java applet program which can detect the one created by the first java applet but not the one I created manually.

    I agreed that it is hardly explained in words. I
    suggested to write two
    simple java applets using the codes and you will see
    the effects:
    (1) the first applet can create a file
    "hkuesd.properties"
    (2) cannot find the file using windows explorer to
    search the whole drive.
    (3) However, can read the content of the file using
    second applet.You still haven't address your problem of swallowing exceptions. Your code might be throwing an exception that tells you exactly what the problem is. Change your code to display or log that exception.

  • Learning Solution - Java Applet errors WBT created by Adobe Captivate 2

    Hi,
    I am experiencing problems with running WBTs created from Adobe Captivate. 
    We can checkin a WBTs created by Captivate using the published SCORM1.2 files.  The first WBT checked in works OK, but all following WBTs created by Captivate have Java Applet problems with error messages "Object expected" and "g_objAPI not defined" when run from the WebAS.
    Has anyone come across a similar problem and found a fix for it?
    Any ideas would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ben.

    In your browser, look at the HTML code that gets sent to the browser and see if there is something wrong with it.
    Specifically, I would look at the code near the <APPLET ..></APPLET> tags, both before and after and look for stray quotes, brackets, or what not.
    Finally, I would look inside the <APPLET ...> tag. It appears to me that the output will probably be:
    <APPLET code="simpleAppletPackage/SimpleApplet.class" codebase="Applets"archive="SimpleAppletPackage.jar" width="250" height="250"></APPLET>See, you may be missing a space between the "Applets" and the archive=. Try making the second out.print look like this:
    out.print(" archive=\"SimpleAppletPackage.jar\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\"></APPLET>"); See the extra space at the start of the output?

  • Trouble creating jar from java applet in eclipse

    I have a java applet in eclipse which I can run, however, I need to be able to view the applet in IE, because certain pieces wont work when I run within eclipse. When I attempt to export the project to a jar it asks for a main class, which does not exist. Can someone please help as to how I can launch my applet from eclipse into IE, or how I can export it as a jar?
    Thanks!

    Don't you just use copy the class from your workspace and embed it in your HTML by pointing to it's new location. Eclipse only asks for the main class when exporting an executable Jar anyways. Why don't you just get the class and putting in your directory with your HTML?

  • Adding a java applet in Apex page

    Hello, I am trying to add a java applet to my page. This is what I do. I create an html region with source ;
    <applet width=300 height=300 codebase="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#DrawingLines.class"></applet>
    and I upload DrawingLines.class file as a static file.
    When I run the page I see the java cup sign (with running circle around) but not the applet. Does this have to do anything with the browser security? My knowledge of Java is very limited, but I thought this should work.

    I just feel like I have to answer this and I hope this is the last post in this thread.
    "I find it amusing that you have come to this forum demanding free technical support, and have posted over 200 times, but you yourself have never once answered somebody's question and gotten a helpful or correct reward"
    First of all, I have helped people on a few occasions , I don't know what kind of "helpful or correct reward" you are referring to but yes I have given useful answers and gotten "thank you" from a few members.
    Second, most of my posts are from year or more ago when I was learning Apex, I have very few posts in the last 6-12 months.
    Third, if nobody asks the questions then there will be no answers => there will be no forum. The very existence of this forum is based on people asking question so why should I be ashamed to "demand free technical hellp", isn't this what most people are doing here?
    The rest of your post is just words pretty much not saying anything (you might wanna try a carier in the politics) so I am not going to address it.
    Have a wonderful day.

  • Difference between Java applet and JavaFX

    Hello, all!
    I am studying javaFX in general. As far as I understand there is no main difference between java applet and javafx, except javafx has different syntax and library simple to use. Is it right?

    Basically, yes. But as you point out, it is supposed to be faster to develop in JavaFX...
    For example, Processing allows to export to applet, and is strong on doing graphics, but to see if user has clicked on a circle, you have to check the mouse coordinates against the circle coordinates, or create your own Circle class: it is at a much lower level.
    Likewise, you can use gaming frameworks like Slick2D or PulpCore, but they might be lacking on GUI (but perhaps faster). Or use Apache's Pivot, strong on GUI, but perhaps lacking a bit on graphics and animation.
    It depends on your needs, if you prefer to stick to Java, etc.

  • I am trying to use an education program that needs Java applets to install and use and it will not use Safari. When I download IE from the web it will not install. How can I get a browser that will work on my MacAir for travel use of this program?

    I am trying to use and education program that needs Java applets and it will not run on Safari. IE will not install from the web. How do I get a browser that will work to install so I can use this program when I travel.

    Try using FireFox. IE will only run on a Mac if you run Windows on the Mac.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Socket communication failure between Java applet and C++ application

    I have a java applet that connects to a C++ application via Java's ServerSocket and Socket objects. THe C++ application is using the Winsock 2 API. The applet and application are running on an NT workstation (SP 6) and using IE (5.5) For a very simple C++ test applications the communictions work fine. Once more code gets added to the C++ application the portion of the socket that C++ listens to seems to close. Upon performing a recv call the return value is a zero. Microsoft insists this is a sign the Java side has shut down the socket. The Java applet can still receive messages from the C++ app but C++ cannot receive responses from the Java side. Java throws no exceptions and an explicit check of the socket shows no errors. Again, what puzzles me is that it works for simple C++ applications. Are there any known conflicts between Java and C++ in this regard?
    I have inlcuded the basic java code segments below.
    / run Method.
      * This method is called by the Thread.start() method. This
      * method is required for the implementation of the Runnable interface
      * This method sets up the server side socket communication and
      * contiuously loops looking for requests from a external
      * socket.
      * @author Chris Duke
      public void run(){
         // create socket connections
         boolean success = false;
         try {
             cServerSocket = new ServerSocket(cPortID);
             System.out.println("Waiting for client to connect...");
             cClientSocket = cServerSocket.accept();
             System.out.println("Client connected");
             // Create a stream to read from the client
             cInStream = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
               cClientSocket.getInputStream()));
             // Create a stream to write to the client       
             cOutStream = new PrintWriter(
               cClientSocket.getOutputStream(), true);
             success = true;
         }catch (IOException e) {
             System.out.println("CommSocket:Run - Socket Exception(1) " + e);
             success = false;
         // if the socket was successfully created, keep the thread running
         while (success){
             try{
                // check socket to see if it is still available for reading
                if (cInStream != null && cInStream.ready()){
                    // check for an incoming message
                    String message = ReceiveMessage();
                    // Send message to listeners
                    Event(message);
                if (cInStream == null){
                    success = false;
                    System.out.println("CommSocket:Run - shutdown");
             }catch (IOException e){
                System.out.println("CommSocket:Run - Socket not ready exception");
                break;
    // SendMessage method -
      *  Sends a text message to a connected listener through port specified by portID
      * @author Chris Duke
      * @param  String message - This will be the message sent out through the server
      * socket's port specified by portID.
       public void SendMessage(String message){
          cOutStream.println(message);
          if (cOutStream.checkError() == true)
            System.out.println("SendMessage : Flush = Error");
          else{
            System.out.println("SendMessage : Flush - No Error");
       }

    a very simple C++ test applications the communictions work fine. Once more code gets added to the C++ application the portion of the socket that C++ listens to seems to close.
    This quite strongly implicates the extra code in the C++ App. The firstly thing I would try would be telnet. Try connecting to both versions of the C++ Application and manually reproducing a proper exchange.
    a recv call the return value is a zero. Microsoft insists this is a sign the Java side has shut down the socket.
    A correct implementation of recv should return the number of bytes received, or -1 for an error. A zero return indicates no bytes received not a socket closed/error. This sounds like FUD to me.
    Are there any known conflicts between Java and C++ in this regard?
    I can see no obvious faults, though the code is incomplete, I don't think it's an sockets implementation issue, at either end, it sounds more likely to be a protocol/handshaking bug in the C++ App.

  • Referencing a "locally installed" Java applet from a server-based HTML page

    How does one reference a "locally installed" Java applet from a server-based HTML page (i.e. via the applet, object, or embed tags)? I have seen references in documentation that this is possible, but I have not seen any examples. I have tried a few things, but nothing seems to be working.
    Some background...
    I'm working on a web site that aggregates Internet video. For many users, I would like the site to work "without" requiring Java to be installed (or any prompts, etc.). This version of the site allows users to stream videos directly over the Internet and does not require any sort of access to the local system.
    However, in addition, I have a download manager that can be installed on the local system. Currently, it's a Windows-based "service" that is always running in the background, downloading files, etc. (with plans to later support other OSes).
    My dilemma is trying to communicate between my web site running in the local browser (executing JavaScript code) and the download manager. I call this component the "gateway". I need the gateway to be able to do the following:
    1) Pass user credentials from the web browser UI to the download manager (so it can communicate with my servers).
    2) Check the status of downloaded videos
    3) Launch a local media player (such as Windows Media, QuickTime, etc.) (or perhaps tell the download manager to launch the media player).
    Under Windows XP, I have an ActiveX control that can do these things. It communicates with the download manager via reading/writing to a shared XML configuration file.
    Unfortunately, under Vista and IE7 Protected Mode, ActiveX controls have become very restricted and my gateway no longer works. As such, I am looking at using Java for the gateway (also giving me the additional benefits of supporting additional browsers and OSes).
    From my understanding, I believe I can created a "face-less" Java applet, whose methods can be called from JavaScript. Ideally, I'm thinking I could install the applet onto the local system at the same time the download manager is installed. This would give the applet the security permissions it needs to communicate with the download manager.
    Thanks for any help and suggestions!

  • Some Java applets do not work after silent installation, solved by toggling "Enable Java content in the browser" - Why?

    We have about 1,800 workstations running Windows 7 (both 32-bit and 64-bit) running various versions of the Java JRE from 6 update 32 through 7 update 51.  Most are on 6 update 45.  We would like to standardize on Java 7 update 51 (32-bit) and get everyone updated to that version for security reasons.
    For the past two weeks, we have been having trouble with our installation pre-pilot.  What we are seeing is that our procedure successfully closes any open Internet Explorer windows and Java-related processes, uninstalls all old versions of the Java JRE, and then claims to have successfully installed Java 7 update 51.  The Java Control panel works.  We can even take Internet Explorer to Verify Java Version or Java Tester - What Version of Java Are You Running? and confirm that the Java applets on those sites are loading (though the latter only works after adding the site to the exceptions site list); however, when testers try to access our Kronos Workforce Central 6.3.10 system, the Java applets used by that system do not load.
    We have tried the following things, none of which worked:
    Clear Internet Explorer browser cache and cookies.
    Clear the local Java cache.
    Reboot the computer.
    Reset Internet Explorer settings, including personal settings.
    The one thing which does work is going into the Java Control Panel, going to the Security tab, unchecking "Enable Java content in the browser", pressing Apply, pressing OK on the pop-up window, checking the "Enable Java content in the browser" box again, pressing OK, pressing OK on the pop-up window, and then restarting Internet Explorer.  It is only after this point that all Java applets, including the ones used by Kronos Workforce Central 6.3.10, work.
    What I need to know is how I can automate the procedure of reinitializing the "Enable Java content in the browser" checkbox after installation or am I doing something wrong or missing a step in the automated installation that is causing this to happen?
    We are using Microsoft SCCM 2007 R3 to accomplish this upgrade, and everything is being run on the client machine using the SYSTEM account.  First, the PowerShell script "javaclean.ps1" is run, with part of the command-line process changing the PowerShell script execution policy to Bypass.  This script handles the closing of Java-dependent applications and Java processes and uninstalls old Java versions.

    Help on this issue would be much appreciated!

    It turns out that this is actually a problem with Kronos Workforce Central.  We had the "site.java.plugin.CLSID.familyVersion" setting in that application set to "clsid:CAFEEFAC-0016-0000-FFFF-ABCDEFFEDCBA", which is the Java CLSID for Java 6.  After updating this value to "clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" (the Java universal CLSID), this problem did not occur upon the automatic upgrade of Java.
    We have both Java 6 and Java 7 in our environment, and did during our Kronos implementation, so I don't know why we were using the Java 6 CLSID in the first place.
    Case closed!

  • How to update content of a file on server using a Java Applet?

    Hi,
    I'm new to Java, and I have a task now to overwrite a text file on a server using an applet. I have written a piece of code which compiles but doesn't work. Can you please take a look at the code or give me another way to do it?
    Thanks.
    Code:
    import java.applet.Applet;
    import java.io.*;
    import java.net.*;
    public class test2 extends Applet{
    public void init() {
    StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
    try {
         String output = "this is some string";
         URL aUrl = new URL (getCodeBase().toString() + "test.txt");
         System.out.println(aUrl);
         URLConnection con = aUrl.openConnection();
         con.setDoOutput(true);
         PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter( new BufferedWriter( new OutputStreamWriter(con.getOutputStream())));
         out.println(output);
         out.close();
    catch (MalformedURLException mue) {
         System.out.println("improper url");
         mue.printStackTrace();
    catch (IOException e) {
         System.out.println("io exception");
         e.printStackTrace();
    }

    Thanks. I knew there would be a security issue, but I do not have sufficient knowledge to get around it. If you have a reference how to configure a server please post it here.You need to create Signed Applet. Because normally applets have some restriction to access the files in the client machine. Signed applets overrides the restriction.
    To know more, Read [url http://192.9.162.55/developer/onlineTraining/Programming/JDCBook/signed.html]Signed Applet
    No. Our OP wants to write to the server, not to the client! And to achieve this from an applet, you don't need it signed, iff the server is the machine from where the applet was downloaded in the first place. You only need to use a mechanism that allows you to write to servers, which HTTP is not. FTP, on the other hand, if setup properly can do it. So instead of trying to write using an HttpURLConnection (OP's attempt), you would use an FTP client library. FTP here is just an example and probably not the best way. Another option is to use some servlet or PHP or ASP on the server side and the applet will sumbmit the changes to that code on the server, which in turn will write to the file. The idea is that you need some 'partner code' on the server, be it the FTP server or the servlet/PHP/ASP code. None of this requires the applet to be signed.
