Programmable Host On-Demand


Writing a Programmable Host On-Demand applet

Applets are typically downloaded from a Web server and run on a client machine in a Web browser that has Java support. Since you usually download an applet across a network, you should try to minimize the size of the download. To minimize the size of the download, but still get all the components you need, use the Preload Options in the Deployment Wizard.

On the Preload Options window, you can select the components you need. The Deployment Wizard knows which archive files correspond to those components. If you clear the checkboxes of the components not needed for your environment, the Deployment Wizard generates a list of the minimum archive files you need. The HTML file generated by the Deployment Wizard is the starting point for your applet.

Note Make sure Programmable Host On-Demand is selected in the Preload Options list.

You also must specify the class name of your applet since you are not using the default class name that starts the Host On-Demand applet.
