 @Deprecated(since="9") public class Applet extends Panel Deprecated.The Applet API is deprecated, no replacement.An applet is a small program that is intended not to be run on its own, but rather to be embedded inside another application.The Appletclass must be the superclass of any applet that is to be embedded in a Web page or viewed by the Java Applet Viewer. TheAppletclass provides a standard interface between applets and their environment.- Since:

Constructor Detail- 
Appletpublic Applet() throws HeadlessExceptionDeprecated.Constructs a new Applet.Note: Many methods in java.applet.Appletmay be invoked by the applet only after the applet is fully constructed; applet should avoid calling methods injava.applet.Appletin the constructor.- Throws:
- HeadlessException- if GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() returns true.
- Since:
- 1.4
- See Also:

- stub- the new stub.
- Throws:
- SecurityException- if the caller cannot set the stub
 
 - 
isActivepublic boolean isActive() Deprecated.Determines if this applet is active. An applet is marked active just before itsstartmethod is called. It becomes inactive just before itsstopmethod is called.
 - 
getDocumentBasepublic URL getDocumentBase() Deprecated.Gets the URL of the document in which this applet is embedded. For example, suppose an applet is contained within the document:
 The document base is:http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.htmlhttp://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html- Returns:
- the URLof the document that contains this applet.
- See Also:
- getCodeBase()

- Since:
- 1.7
- See Also:
- Container.isValidateRoot()

 - 
getImagepublic Image getImage(URL url, String name) Deprecated.Returns anImageobject that can then be painted on the screen. Theurlargument must specify an absolute URL. Thenameargument is a specifier that is relative to theurlargument.This method always returns immediately, whether or not the image exists. When this applet attempts to draw the image on the screen, the data will be loaded. The graphics primitives that draw the image will incrementally paint on the screen. - Parameters:
- url- an absolute URL giving the base location of the image.
- name- the location of the image, relative to the- urlargument.
- Returns:
- the image at the specified URL.

- Since:
- 1.2
 
 - 
getAudioClippublic AudioClip getAudioClip(URL url) Deprecated.Returns theAudioClipobject specified by theURLargument.This method always returns immediately, whether or not the audio clip exists. When this applet attempts to play the audio clip, the data will be loaded. - Parameters:
- url- an absolute URL giving the location of the audio clip.
- Returns:
- the audio clip at the specified URL.
- See Also:
- AudioClip
 
 - 
getAudioClippublic AudioClip getAudioClip(URL url, String name) Deprecated.Returns theAudioClipobject specified by theURLandnamearguments.This method always returns immediately, whether or not the audio clip exists. When this applet attempts to play the audio clip, the data will be loaded. - Parameters:
- url- an absolute URL giving the base location of the audio clip.
- name- the location of the audio clip, relative to the- urlargument.
- Returns:
- the audio clip at the specified URL.
- See Also:
- AudioClip
 
 - 
getAppletInfopublic String getAppletInfo() Deprecated.Returns information about this applet. An applet should override this method to return aStringcontaining information about the author, version, and copyright of the applet.The implementation of this method provided by the Appletclass returnsnull.- Returns:
- a string containing information about the author, version, and copyright of the applet.
 
 - 
getLocalepublic Locale getLocale() Deprecated.Gets the locale of the applet. It allows the applet to maintain its own locale separated from the locale of the browser or appletviewer.- Overrides:
- getLocalein class- Component
- Returns:
- the locale of the applet; if no locale has been set, the default locale is returned.
- Since:
- 1.1
- See Also:
- Component.setLocale(java.util.Locale)

getParameterInfopublic String[][] getParameterInfo() Deprecated.Returns information about the parameters that are understood by this applet. An applet should override this method to return an array ofStringsdescribing these parameters.Each element of the array should be a set of three Stringscontaining the name, the type, and a description.

 - 
playpublic void play(URL url) Deprecated.Plays the audio clip at the specified absolute URL. Nothing happens if the audio clip cannot be found.- Parameters:
- url- an absolute URL giving the location of the audio clip.
 
 - 
playpublic void play(URL url, String name) Deprecated.Plays the audio clip given the URL and a specifier that is relative to it. Nothing happens if the audio clip cannot be found.- Parameters:
- url- an absolute URL giving the base location of the audio clip.
- name- the location of the audio clip, relative to the- urlargument.
 
 - 
initpublic void init() Deprecated.Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it has been loaded into the system. It is always called before the first time that thestartmethod is called.A subclass of Appletshould override this method if it has initialization to perform. For example, an applet with threads would use theinitmethod to create the threads and thedestroymethod to kill them.The implementation of this method provided by the Appletclass does nothing.
 - 
startpublic void start() Deprecated.Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it should start its execution. It is called after theinitmethod and each time the applet is revisited in a Web page.A subclass of Appletshould override this method if it has any operation that it wants to perform each time the Web page containing it is visited. For example, an applet with animation might want to use thestartmethod to resume animation, and thestopmethod to suspend the animation.Note: some methods, such as getLocationOnScreen, can only provide meaningful results if the applet is showing. BecauseisShowingreturnsfalsewhen the applet'sstartis first called, methods requiringisShowingto returntrueshould be called from aComponentListener.The implementation of this method provided by the Appletclass does nothing.
 - 
stoppublic void stop() Deprecated.Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it should stop its execution. It is called when the Web page that contains this applet has been replaced by another page, and also just before the applet is to be destroyed.A subclass of Appletshould override this method if it has any operation that it wants to perform each time the Web page containing it is no longer visible. For example, an applet with animation might want to use thestartmethod to resume animation, and thestopmethod to suspend the animation.The implementation of this method provided by the Appletclass does nothing.
 - 
destroypublic void destroy() Deprecated.Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it is being reclaimed and that it should destroy any resources that it has allocated. Thestopmethod will always be called beforedestroy.A subclass of Appletshould override this method if it has any operation that it wants to perform before it is destroyed. For example, an applet with threads would use theinitmethod to create the threads and thedestroymethod to kill them.The implementation of this method provided by the Appletclass does nothing.
 - 
getAccessibleContextpublic AccessibleContext getAccessibleContext() Deprecated.Gets the AccessibleContext associated with this Applet. For applets, the AccessibleContext takes the form of an AccessibleApplet. A new AccessibleApplet instance is created if necessary.- Specified by:
- getAccessibleContextin interface- Accessible
- Overrides:
- getAccessibleContextin class- Panel
