What can I do with Mac OS Runtime for Java?
Java is a new programming language that has gained popularity with the growth of the Internet. Small programs called "applets" can be written in Java and embedded in Web pages. These programs are automatically downloaded when the page is displayed by a Java-capable Web browser.
The Tic Tac Toe game below is an example of a simple Java applet. To play the game, click any square.
(If the game doesn't appear, make sure you're using a Java-aware browser, such as Netscape Navigator 3.01 or later.)
Programs written in Java can be executed on any computer running the Java virtual machine, such as Mac OS Runtime for Java.
Mac OS Runtime for Java allows software developers to build Java applications on the Mac OS. By using Mac OS Runtime for Java, developers can build standalone Java applications as well as run Java within existing applications.
Mac OS Runtime for Java comes with demonstration utilities that run Java applets within a standalone viewer application, and within an OpenDoc document.
