Hello,

I am having difficulty getting an applet that I am writing to run. I
have it in several different classes within the same package. I have an
html page with an applet with a code directed towards the applet class,
and the others are imported to the applet class. However, when I try to
run, it says that it can not find the applet class (in my case, named
game).

Thanks for any help.

I am haviing difficulty seeing it at your URL,
probably because you did not supply one.

Also, your code is not very clear, probably
because you did not supply it either (though
linking to it from your URL would be best).

You make it rather hard to help.

I was about to comment on not including an URL

OK. This is seriously damaged HTML.
There is no close tag for the head, no doctype,
no charset.

What a browser does with this HTML would
be akin to guesswork.

I suggest you throw it at the HTML validator 1st.
http://validator.w3.org/

2nd, to your problem. I have never had to
specify absolute paths the way you do. Vis.
'c:\javaproj\gg\game.class'

I would suggest putting the class files and HTML
in the same directory and using
'code="game.class"'

You need to import the Applet class

Oops...looks like another person who should read the following:
<http://www.sudsy.net/technology/java-classes.html>
So many people confused about the fully qualified name of a class
versus the "path to a file".
Here's what I did (commands are in quotes):
- "cd /tmp"
- extracted your code into the appropriately named files
- "javac -d . game.java Ball.java Gorilla.java"
- modified the applet tag in m.htm to the following:
<applet width="600" height="400" code="gg.game">
- "appletviewer m.htm"

I suggest you visit the Sun site (java.sun.com) and read up on the
applet tag. It's also documented here:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/objects.html>

No, he doesn't: he's fully qualified the class. You, however, need
to stop reposting the entire text of the original post with just a
single line addition (with incorrect information to boot!).

Oops! Missed the entire but about it being
a package.

What I suggested would not work.

I take it the point of this exercise is working
with packages, right? [ Otherwise I'd advise you
to take out the 'package' statement and be done
with it! ]

If you are trying to work with packages, it
is far netter to be working from the command
line or an application. In fact, I think it is
very counter-productive to attempt _anything_
the first time in an applet - they are quirky little
beasts.

HST (having said that) a Q&D way that might work..
1) drop your classes into a 'WinZip' type program
2) save the zip file
3) rename myfile.zip to myapplet.jar
4) use the archive and (possibly) codebase tag(s)..

<applet width="600" height="400"
ARCHIVE="myapplet.jar"
CODEBASE="gg"
code="game.class">
</applet>

I am not sure of this since I generally put the first
class of an applet in the 'root' of a .jar, thus my
codebase="/" and
code="myclass.class"

Hey Sudsy! Get your attributions right..

You've mixed Thomas' name with my email address,
when I think you were criticising my advice.
[ ..and quite rightly so ;-) ]

I suspect the OP is specifically trying to figure
out packages. Is that right Thomas?

It is the internet you are dealing with here - not Windows.

Don't put absolute Windows paths into your applet tag.

Instead follow the advice Sudsy gave...

Had a bad morning?

Sorry for wasting 7kb of your bandwidth with a bad answer. All of us arent't
perfect :)

Not at all! I was just raising a couple of points of netiquette.
Some people don't realize that their newsreaders are set to include
the original post in its entirety. A bit of judicious cutting is
all that's required.
As to the correctness of the answer, I'm not trying to dissuade
anyone from posting. It just helps if you take a couple of minutes
and actually test the posted code.
And you can learn something to boot, in this case that it's not
necessary to import the class if you fully qualify the name.
No problem, right?

Cheers!
