I have to develop some Java application and this application should be made as applet. I had good experience in working with NetBeans platform and would like to use something like on NB rcp here. But I didn't find something usefull to do that. For example Spring RCP would be good choice but it's ApplicationLauncher works only with JFrame and not with JApplet. I don't want to use separate JFrame windows in my applet. Could anybody give me advice in my question ? --dmitry Back to top John B.

John, thank you for detailed answer I have found a lot of interesting information in your links. I considered possibility of using WebStart instead of applets but 'applet' is requirement of my customer . Anyway I didn't find any usefull framework like an reach client platform that could be used in applet. It seems that there is single way to do everything in pure Swing.

Suggestions for all: If you use a web interface to Usenet (WITUN), don't refresh the browser when you have a response on the screen; use the WITUN's links to navigate. This will avoid double-posting. Also, instead of top-posting, post in line with the quotes to which you are responding, and trim your replies for clarity. -- Lew Back to top Andrew Thompson Guest Posted: Tue Dec 16, 2008 11:13 pm    Post subject: Re: RCP and Applets On Dec 17, 12:39 am, dmitry....@gmail.com wrote: Quote: ...I considered possibility of using WebStart instead of applets but 'applet' is requirement of my customer . That does not make sense. You do not have to choose between applets *or* webstart, since webstart can *launch* applets. The advantages of launching applets via webstart are many. The only issue is whether the the customer wants their applet supplied with a (mostly useless) browser window/tab wrapped around it. If the customer wants the browser window, please ask them exactly what that is supposed to do for the user. -- Andrew Thompson http://pscode.org/ Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         AppletTalk.com Forum Index -> Java GUI Toolkits All times are GMT Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Java Newsgroups----------------Java DiscussionsWeb-based java games comp.lang.java 3D Graphics API's for Java Java: Support and criticism Java System Announcements comp.lang.java.api JavaBeans Java and CORBA Java and Databases comp.lang.java.developer Java GUI Toolkits Java Help comp.lang.java.javascript JVM, native methods and hardware comp.lang.java.misc Java Language Programming Security and Java comp.lang.java.setup Java Software Tools comp.lang.java.tech ibm.software.java.linux  Non-English Java Newsgroups----------------Java Language (German)Language Java (Français)Java (Italian)  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2006 phpBB Group SEO toolkit © 2004-2006 webmedic.
