Java Applet by Example

• Okay, we still have a few more things to talk about before you actually build your own applet. However, I will introduce a simple applet so you can see what it would look like. Notice that we have to import the applet package.

  import java.awt.*;
  import java.applet.*;
  
  public class Hello extends Applet
    {
    public void init()
      {
      System.out.println("We have been initialized");
      }
  
    public void start()
      {
      System.out.println("We have been started");
      }
  
    public void stop()
      {
      System.out.println("We have been stopped");
      }
  
    public void destroy()
      {
      System.out.println("We have been destroyed");
      }
  
    }
