Building Your First Application :

Applets by Example

Okay, we still have a few more things to talk about before you actually build your own applet. However, let's look at 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");
    }

  }
