CheerpJ Applet Runner
Running your own applet
You will need:
- Your applet file(s)
- The HTML file where your applet is meant to be displayed.
- A basic HTTP server to test locally
1. Integrating CheerpJ in your HTML file
This tutorial assumes you already have an HTML file with an <applet>, <object> or <embed> tag.
In order to integrate CheerpJ, you just need to add:
- A simple
<script>within the<head>of your page with the CheerpJ runtime loader.
<script src="https://cjrtnc.leaningtech.com/4.2/loader.js"></script>- A second script calling
cheerpjInit()to initialize CheerpJ’s runtime environment.
<script> cheerpjInit();</script>For example:
<!doctype html><html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8" /> <title>CheerpJ applet test</title> <script src="https://cjrtnc.leaningtech.com/4.2/loader.js"></script> </head> <body> <applet archive="Example.jar" code="ExamplePath.ExampleApplet" height="900" width="900" ></applet> <script> cheerpjInit(); </script> </body></html>
