I have a small Application that I have reworked into an Applet with some
difficulty. One of the problems that I had was as follows:
An Application has a Frame.
An Applet does not have a Frame. It has a DisplayItemWindow.
A MenuBar can only attached to a Frame.
====================================
Therefore, an Application can have a MenuBar, but an Applet cannot
have a MenuBar.
A Menu must be attached to a Menubar.
====================================
Therefore, an Applet cannot have Menus.
====================================
Therefore, all operations launched via MenuItems must somehow be
made accessible
via some other means.
I would like to know:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. What process would be necessary, in general, for converting an
Application to an Applet?
2. What are the classes that are specifically not usable within an Applet?
Thank you,
-Shaun
