将Java Web Start应用程序（jnlp）转换为applet

Question

I have a java application which is a java web start application. It is used to administer a remote server. Now I want to convert it to an applet to run in the browser. Is there an easy way to achieve this. What are my options to achieve this? By the way my java application stores and reads some conf files on the client file system. Would this be a problem if I run my application as an applet?

Answer 1

That shouldn't be too hard since Sun/Oracle introduced JNLP support for applets in version 6u10 (1.6.0_10). In short:

1. Adapt your app to the applet lifecycle ,
2. set the permissions correctly and
3. sign it with an official certificate .
4. (and of course embedd your applet in a web page)
