Applets-

Applets are used for creating interactive object for a web page.They are embedded on a web
page.for creating an applet you must import java.applet package & must inherit the Applet
class.

Applet Life Cycle- during execution applet follows a life cycle.and the life cycle will be-

init()--->start()---->paint()--------->stop()---------->destroy()

init()- when the applet inilizes then this method is fired.

Syntax

public void init()

body of the method

start()- when the applet start the execution then this method fires.

Syntax

public void start()

body of the method

paint()- when the applet activates then this method is fires.It contrains Graphics class as
argument so you must import java.awt when you use this method.

Syntax

public void paint(Graphics g)

body of the method

stop()- when the applet stops the execution then this method fires.

Syntax

public void stop()

body of the method

destroy()- when the applet release the memory then this method is fires.

Syntax

public void destroy()

body of the method

Executing an applet-for executing an applet we can follow one of the following two
techniques-

1. Creating a seperate html file

2. using appletviewer tool

in both the above cases you must use the <applet> tag like the following-

<applet code="classname" width=value height=value>

</applet>
Example

import java.applet.*;

import java.awt.*;

public class life extends Applet

public void init()

System.out.println("Applet Initlized");

public void start()

System.out.println("Applet Starts the Execution");

public void paint(Graphics g)

g.drawString("Welcome Friends",10,20);

System.out.println("Applet Activated");

public void stop()

System.out.println("Applet Stops the Execution");

public void destroy()

{
 System.out.println("Applet Release The Memory");

/*

<applet code="life" width="300" height="300">

</applet>

*/

for compiling use

javac programname.java

for run

appletviewer programname.java

Methods of Applet Class

1. setBackground()- sets the background Color

2. setForeground()- sets the font color

Working with Graphics Class-Graphics class provides a lot of methods for creating an
interactive objects, some of them are-

1. setColor()- sets the Color into the object

2. setFont()- sets the font style

3. drawString()- draws a message on Applet

Syntax

drawString(String msg,x,y);

4. drawLine()- draws a line on the applet

Syntax
 drawLine(int x1,int y1,int x2,int y2)

5. drawRect()- draws a Rectangle on the applet

Syntax

drawRect(int x,int y,int width,int height)

6. drawOval()- draws an Oval on the applet

Syntax

drawOval(int x,int y,int width,int height)

7. fillRect()- draws a Solid Rectangle on the applet

Syntax

fillRect(int x,int y,int width,int height)

8. fillOval()- draws a Solid Oval on the applet

Syntax

fillOval(int x,int y,int width,int height)

9. drawImage()- draws on Image on The Applet

Syntax

drawImage(Imageobject,int x,int y,int width,int height,this)

Color Class - This class is used for creating a Color object.

Constructor

Color(int red,int green,int blue)

The range will be-

0-255 for each

Font Class - This class construct a Font Object

Constructor
 Font(String FontName,int Style,int Size)

________________________________________________________________

Example

import java.applet.*;

import java.awt.*;

public class life extends Applet

Color c;

Font f1,f2;

public void init()

c=new Color(0,255,0);

f1=new Font("Impact",Font.PLAIN,35);

f2=new Font("Arial",Font.PLAIN,20);

public void paint(Graphics g)

g.setFont(f1);

g.setColor(c);

g.drawString("Sushant IT College",120,50);

g.setColor(Color.blue);

g.drawLine(0,60,400,60);

g.setColor(Color.red);

g.setFont(f2);
 g.drawString("Naini",195,80);

/*

<applet code="life" width="400" height="400">

</applet>

*/

________________________________________________________________

Embeding Image on The Applet- for embedding image on the applet you must use
drawImage() method & image must be in the current folder.

Example

import java.applet.*;

import java.awt.*;

public class image extends Applet

Image img;

public void init()

img=getImage(getCodeBase(),"login.jpg");
 }

public void paint(Graphics g)

g.drawImage(img,0,0,90,90,this);

/*

<applet code="image" width="400" height="400">

</applet>

*/

______________________________________________________________________

using repaint() method- this method calles the paint() method recursively.so it is used for
creating an animated program.

Example 1

import java.applet.*;

import java.awt.*;

public class myanimation1 extends Applet

int c,x,y,x1,y1,x2,y2;

Font f;

public void init()

{
 c=0;

x=20;

y=30;

x1=270;

y1=180;

f=new Font("Arial",Font.BOLD,30);

x2=0;

y2=35;

setBackground(Color.blue);

setForeground(Color.white);

public void paint(Graphics g)

g.setFont(f);

x2+=15;

if(x2>=250)

x2=0;

g.drawString("Dhananjay",x2,y2);

if(c==0)

g.setColor(Color.red);

setBackground(Color.blue);

setForeground(Color.green);

}
else if(c==1)

g.setColor(Color.pink);

setBackground(Color.red);

setForeground(Color.blue);

else if(c==2)

g.setColor(Color.green);

setBackground(Color.yellow);

setForeground(Color.pink);

else if(c>2)

c=0;

c++;

x+=20;

y+=20;

if(x>=270)

x=20;

if(y>=180)

y=20;

x1-=20;

y1-=20;

if(x1<=20)
 x1=270;

if(y1<=30)

y1=180;

g.fillOval(x,y,30,30);

g.fillOval(x1,y1,30,30);

for(long i=1;i<=100000000;i++);

repaint();

/*

<applet code="myanimation1" height=200 width=300>

</applet>

*/

Example 2

import java.applet.*;

import java.awt.*;

public class image extends Applet

Image img1,img2,img3,img4;

int c;

public void init()

{
 img1=getImage(getCodeBase(),"login.jpg");

img2=getImage(getCodeBase(),"Nokia.jpg");

img3=getImage(getCodeBase(),"Sony.jpg");

img4=getImage(getCodeBase(),"Samsung.jpg");

c=1;

public void paint(Graphics g)

if(c==1)

g.drawImage(img1,0,0,350,350,this);

else if(c==2)

g.drawImage(img2,0,0,350,350,this);

else if(c==3)

g.drawImage(img3,0,0,350,350,this);

else if(c==4)

g.drawImage(img4,0,0,350,350,this);

c=0;

c++;

try{

Thread.sleep(1000);

}catch(InterruptedException e){}

repaint();
