Menu Example (JDK1.1)

by Michael Thomas

(Tutorial Home Page)

• The source.
• This example will only run as a Java application.  This example will work in a JDK 1.1 and greater environment.  You will need to download the code, compile and run.
• Menu's & Applets - Since setMenuBar() method is not located in java.applet.Applet (or it's super classes) you cannot use Java's java.awt.Menu classes in an Applet.  setMenuBar() resides in java.awt.Frame and you cannot add a Frame to an Applet container because you cannot add a window to a container.  You'll have to create your own menu classes.  
  Menu in Applet (does not work) (JDK1.1) - This is my attempts at getting Menu's to work in an Applet.  Summary - You cannot place Java menu's in an Applet - only Applications.  

Does not work as an applet!
