NAME

gappletviewer - Load and runs an applet

SYNOPSIS

appletviewer [\s-1OPTION\s0]... \s-1URL\s0...
appletviewer [\s-1OPTION\s0]... -code \s-1CODE\s0
appletviewer [\s-1OPTION\s0]... -plugin \s-1INPUT\s0,\s-1OUTPUT\s0

DESCRIPTION

The appletviewer tool loads and runs an applet.
Use the first form to test applets specified by tag. The \s-1URL\s0 should resolve to an \s-1HTML\s0 document from which the appletviewer will extract applet tags. The \s-1APPLET\s0, \s-1EMBED\s0 and \s-1OBJECT\s0 tags are supported. If a given document contains multiple applet tags, all the applets will be loaded, with each applet appearing in its own window. Likewise, when multiple URLs are specified, each applet tag instance is given its own window. If a given document contains no recognized tags the appletviewer does nothing.
appletviewer http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/
Use the second form to test an applet in development. This form allows applet tag attributes to be supplied on the command line. Only one applet may be specified using the -code option. The -code option overrides the \s-1URL\s0 form any URLs specified will be ignored.
appletviewer -code Test.class -param datafile,data.txt
gcjwebplugin uses the third form to communicate with the appletviewer through named pipes.
