public abstract interface AppletStub

When an applet is first created, an applet stub is attached to it using the applet's setStub method. This stub serves as the interface between the applet and the browser environment or applet viewer environment in which the application is running.

public void appletResize(int, int)

Called when the applet wants to be resized.

int width: the new requested width for the applet.

int height: the new requested height for the applet.

public AppletContext getAppletContext()

Returns the applet's context.

public URL getCodeBase()

Gets the base URL. This is the URL of the directory which contains the applet.

public URL getDocumentBase()

Gets the URL of the document in which the applet is embedded. For example, suppose an applet is contained within the document:

    http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/index.html
 

    http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/index.html
 

public String getParameter(String)

Returns the value of the named parameter in the HTML tag. For example, if an applet is specified as

 <applet code="Clock" width=50 height=50>
 <param name=Color value="blue">
 </applet>
 

then a call to getParameter("Color") returns the value "blue".

String name: a parameter name.

public boolean isActive()

Determines if the applet is active. An applet is active just before its start method is called. It becomes inactive just before its stop method is called.
