Java applet test

[Shadow2531]

I created a little java applet for testing.

import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;

public class JavaAppletTest extends Applet {
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        setBackground(Color.black);
        g.setColor(Color.white);
        g.drawString("Java Applet Loaded Successfully", 10, 20);
    }
}

I really don't know java that well. Did I do anything evil there? Derived that method from java.sun.com examples. The applet works as expected, but that doesn't mean anything.

I'm building the applet with gcj -C JavaAppletTest.java , which spits out the class file.

Thanks.

Using Java by itself is pretty evil. You probably won't go to hell, but purgatory might awaits you

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out your question. I even tried you piece of code, and it works wonderfully... So what's your question/problem?

It all looks fine and dandy to me.

Thanks.

Just wanted to see if the code was evil. No problems with it.

It's been awhile since I used Java, but maybe you should get in the habit of using JApplet and Swing instead of Applet? JApplet provides more functionality, and I'd imagine the 'newer' improved way of using Java.

If you are going to be using graphics in Java I would suggest you learn how to implement double buffering

Thanks. Suggestions noted.
