An extended version of java.applet.Applet that adds support for interposing input and painting behavior in front of the applets children (see glassPane), support for special children that are managed by a LayeredPane (see rootPane) and for Swing MenuBars.
The JApplet class is slightly incompatible with java.applet.Applet. JApplet contains a JRootPane as it's only child. The contentPane should be the parent of any children of the JApplet. This is different than java.applet.Applet, e.g. to add a child to an an java.applet.Applet you'd write:
applet.add(child);However using JApplet you need to add the child to the JApplet's contentPane instead:
applet.getContentPane().add(child);The same is true for setting LayoutManagers, removing components, listing children, etc. All these methods should normally be sent to the contentPane() instead of the JApplet itself. The contentPane() will always be non-null. Attempting to set it to null will cause the JApplet to throw an exception. The default contentPane() will have a BorderLayout manager set on it.
Please see the JRootPane documentation for a complete description of the contentPane, glassPane, and layeredPane properties.
For the keyboard keys used by this component in the standard Look and Feel (L&F) renditions, see the JApplet key assignments.
Both Netscape Communicator and Internet Explorer 4.0 unconditionally print an error message to the Java console when an applet attempts to access the AWT system event queue. Swing applets do this once, to check if access is permitted. To prevent the warning message in a production applet one can set a client property called "defeatSystemEventQueueCheck" on the JApplets RootPane to any non null value, e.g:
JRootPane rp = myJApplet.getRootPane(); rp.putClientProperty("defeatSystemEventQueueCheck", Boolean.TRUE);We hope that future versions of the browsers will not have this limitation and we'll be able to retire this hack.
Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. A future release of Swing will provide support for long term persistence.

void |
setContentPane(Container contentPane)
Sets the contentPane property. |
void |
setGlassPane(Component glassPane)

void |
setJMenuBar(JMenuBar menuBar)
Sets the menubar for this applet. |
void |
setLayeredPane(JLayeredPane layeredPane)
Sets the layeredPane property. |
void |
setLayout(LayoutManager manager)
By default the layout of this component may not be set, the layout of its contentPane should be set instead. |
protected void |
setRootPane(JRootPane root)
Sets the rootPane property. |
protected void |
setRootPaneCheckingEnabled(boolean enabled)
If true then calls to add() and setLayout() will cause an exception to be thrown. |
void |
update(Graphics g)
Just calls paint(g) . |
