Create Applet

The Create Applet SmartGuide generates an applet based on your specifications.  On the first page, provide the following information:

  1. In the Project field, provide the name of a project to contain the new applet.  This can be a new name, in which case the SmartGuide creates the project before it creates the applet.  Alternatively, you can select an existing project.   Click Browse to choose from a list of projects in the workspace.
  2. Likewise provide a new or existing package name for the applet in the Package field.
  3. Provide a name for the applet.
  4. If you want to open a class browser on the applet once it has been generated, enable the Browse applet when finished check box.
  5. If you want to create the applet by using the Visual Composition Editor, enable the Compose the class visually check box.
  6. Click Next to continue making specifications for the applet, such as whether to implement main(), whether the applet is threaded, and whether the applet has parameters.  If Next is not enabled, click Finish.
