Java Applets For Mac

Macos - Java Applet, AWT Refresh, issue on Mac OS X 10.4 - Stack Overflow. We have a Java Applet built using AWT. This applet lets you select pictures from your hard drive and upload them to a server. The applet includes a scrollable list of pictures, which works fine in.

I have a Mac G5 and am trying to run an applet on any webbrowser. I create the applet in XCode 2.4 and it runs in the sun applet viewer when I do a 'Build and Go,' but importing it to my trial copy of Dreamweaver 8 always results in failure on Safari or Netscape. In Safari I just get an 'X' and in Netscape I get the 'Start: applet not initialized' error. I have looked through all the previous lists here, but can find nothing that helps me. I would like to run a complex application, but right now I can't even get a simple 'Hello World' applet to work. Any suggestions? Thanks so much in advance!

Important Notice: Security has been greatly enhanced recently on the web for java applets like those on this page. Because of this, you may have problems accessing these applets. If so, you can remedy this as follows (for Mac users - a similar procedure should work for PC users, but I don't know the details). For creating any applet java.applet.Applet class must be inherited. It provides 4 life cycle methods of applet. Public void init : is used to initialized the Applet. It is invoked only once. Public void start : is invoked after the init method or browser is maximized. It is used to start the Applet. How are Java updates managed on macOS? Every time you start a Java applet or a Java Web Start (JWS) application, the system starts your program and determines in the background (so that performance of your Java application is not affected) if it has checked for a Java. Next, re-enable Java applet support in the Java Preferences application (or wait for your Mac to automatically prompt you the next time you need it). Third, pick a secondary browser that you never.

Does it work in appletviewer if you start it from the command line? What is your general directory layout, i.e. which files are where?

I haven�t tried to run it from the command line, mostly because I didn�t realize that was an option. I don�t know how to do that. My Xcode project is one folder in my Home folder and the Dreamweaver website is in another folder in the Home folder. I tried putting the jar file and the html file in the Dreamweaver folder and linking to them from there, but I got the same result � they do not work in Safari or Netscape.

You can try using appletviewer by typing 'appletviewer ' on the command line.
How do you reference the jar file in the HTML - can you show us the applet tag?

OK, thanks, that works fine. I get the applet for my simple test applet, but I get the �Start: applet not initialized� error with my more complex applet.

This is the tag in XCode:

Your browser does not support Java, so nothing is displayed.

But my browsers DO support java, so what does this mean?

In XCode I changed the applet tag to:


and made sure the jar, class and html files were all in the same folder, then went to Dreamweaver and did Insert>Media>Applet and selected the class file. Now when I preview in Safari, the applet works as it should, but Modzilla and Netscape both give the exception:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Applet_Condulet_Fill.class
and at the bottom there is the cryptic �Start: applet not initialized� message. Any insights as to why it should work in Safari but not the other browsers?
Is there a way to implement an application on a website without using an applet? For example, a simple box where a user can enter a number and the application will calculate and return an answer?
Thanks in advance.

The tag looks good. You could try to specifying the class name by appending '.class' to it, because the Sun Java Tutorial on Applets does it like that. Some browsers/plugins are picky that way. Aside from that, just make sure that wherever you copy the files, the HTML file and the jar file need to be in the same directory.
The 'Your browser does not support Java, so nothing is displayed.' is just there in case the browser has no Java or Java turned off, in which case it would ignore the applet tag and display what's inside it (i.e., that message). It has no bearing on the problem at hand.

I had to create a new project in Dreamweaver and use the Terminal to create the class file (using javac) and the jar file (using jar cvfM �) and although I can get it to work fine in Safari, I still get the errors in Modzilla. I don�t get it. Other than turning java on in Modzilla, I can find no way to assign a java version, so I have to assume it is using the system version, java 1.6.0. Any insights? Thanks.

Which errors are those exactly - there should be a more detailed error message in either system.log or console.log (you can use Console.app to look at those).
Are you really running Java 6 on the Mac? Then I wouldn't be surprised to encounter problems - it's still in development, after all.

Test Java Applet

This means that the Java code has been compiled with a newer version of Java than the browser plugin can handle. Class files of version 50.0 are created by Java 6, so it seems that Mozilla uses at most the Java 5 plugin. You can check that by entering 'about lugins' in the Mozialla/Firefox URL field.
Assuming that the code doesn't use Java 6-only features you can compile it by using the -source and -target switches of javac. Then the class files are executable by older JVMs/browser plugins.

My version of Modzilla shows java 1.3.1 for the java Applet plugin enabler. It also gave me the warning that I don�t have the latest version, so I downloaded the latest version and got the same java version.

Good theory, and we may be getting closer here, but compiling the java code using:
javac -source 1.2 -target 1.2 Applet_Conduit_Fill.java
results in the following error in Modzilla:

Well, the javadocs for JFormattedTextField say that the class got added in Java 1.4, so you can't reasonably expect to generate classes that are compatible with Java 1.2. Until the JVM your browser uses has a 1.4 JVM (you indicated that it still has a 1.3 JVM), it won't be able to run that code.

Java Applet Plugin For Mac

The following are the system requirements for installing the JDK and the JRE on macOS:

Java Applet Download For Mac

  • Any Intel-based computer running macOS.

  • Administrator privileges.

    You cannot install Java for a single user. Installing the JDK and JRE on macOS is performed on a systemwide basis for all users. Administrator privileges are required to install the JDK and JRE on macOS.

  • When you install the JDK, it also installs the JRE. However, the system will not replace the current JRE with a lower version.

    To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.

  • When you install the JRE, you can install only one JRE on your system at a time. The system will not install a JRE that has an earlier version than the current version.

    To determine the current JRE version installed on your system, see Determining the JRE Version Installed on macOS. To install an earlier version of the JRE, you must first uninstall the current version. See Uninstalling the JRE on macOS.

    Note:

    Installing a JRE from Oracle will not update java -version symlinks or add java Microsoft word for mac insert shape and don 27t snap to grid change. to your path. To do this, you must install the JDK.
