+The new JOGL Applet Launcher enables the creation and deployment of
+applets using 3D graphics via OpenGL without requiring the applet to
+be signed or performing any manual installation of software on users'
+computers. It has been tested and should work on any OS/CPU
+combination supported by JOGL with a Java Runtime Environment version
+1.4.2 or later installed into the web browser. Here is an example of
+the standard Gears demo running as an applet:
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+The applet above is instantiated with the following code:
+
+
+<applet code="com.sun.opengl.utils.JOGLAppletInstaller"
+ width=600
+ height=400
+ codebase="http://download.java.net/jogl/builds/archive/jsr-231-webstart-current"
+ archive="jogl.jar,jogl-demos.jar">
+ <param name="subapplet.classname" VALUE="demos.applets.GearsApplet">
+ <param name="subapplet.displayname" VALUE="JOGL Gears Applet">
+ <param name="progressbar" value="true">
+ <param name="cache_archive" VALUE="jogl.jar,jogl-demos.jar">
+ <param name="cache_archive_ex" VALUE="jogl.jar;preload,jogl-demos.jar;preload">
+</applet>
+
+
+
+ +Note that the jogl-demos.jar, which contains the GearsApplet class, +does not need to be signed! Sun Microsystems, Inc. signs +jogl.jar, which contains the JOGLAppletLauncher; this is the only Java +code which needs to be signed in order to deploy applets using JOGL +and is the only certificate the end user must accept. + +
++ +The JOGLAppletLauncher +javadoc contains more information about what files must be placed +on the web server in order to enable the deployment of applets using +JOGL. + +
++ +The JOGL Applet Launcher was originally contributed by Lilian +Chamontin. + +
