Hi everybody!

I was trying to display an Image from a Java Application.But I could not find the much
needed methods.So I tried to run an animation applet(coming with demo) from the application.But in doing so I am getting  these errors:

java.lang.NullPointerException
	at java.applet.Applet.getAppletContext(Applet.java:83)
	at java.applet.Applet.getImage(Applet.java:120)
	at Animator.fetchImages(Animator.java:270)	
	at Animator.run(Animator.java:590)
	at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:289)

run
{
        ...        
        URL badURL = fetchImages(images); //line 590
        ...
}

fetchImages
{
        ... 
       Image im = getImage(url);  //line 270
        ...
}
I have set url=new URL(file:///C:/javatest/animation/images/image.gif );

What I could gather is that  AppletContext remains null and is not being initialized.

Can someone please help me!

I need to know exactly how to display an image on a standalone application.It is 
quite possible that there is already support for displaying an Image which I might have overlooked.If anyone finds anything that might be of help ,please let me know.Sample code fragments may be helpful .

Regards.
