APPLETS
1. What is an Applet? Should applets have constructors?
Ans : Applet is a dynamic and interactive program that runs inside a Web
page
displayed by a Java capable browser. We don’t have the concept of
Constructors in Applets.

Ans : Use the parseInt() method in the Integer Class, the Float(String)
constructor in the
Class Float, or the Double(String) constructor in the class Double.

getApplet()
method in your applet code to obtain references to the other applets on the
page.

handler for a particular kind of event.
An event adapter provides a default implementation of an event-listener
interface.
6. In which package are most of the AWT events that support the event-
delegation model defined?
Ans : Most of the AWT–related events of the event-delegation model are
defined in the
java.awt.event package. The AWTEvent class is defined in the java.awt
package.
7. What is the advantage of the event-delegation model over the earlier event-
inheritance model?
Ans : The event-delegation has two advantages over the event-inheritance model.
They are :
1. It enables event handling by objects other than the ones that generate the
events. This
allows a clean separation between a component’s design and its use.
2. It performs much better in applications where many events are generated.
This
performance improvement is due to the fact that the event-delegation model
does not
have to repeatedly process unhandled events, as is the case of the event-
inheritance
model.

Ans :The enableEvents( ) method is used to enable an event for a particular
object.

handling.

TextField("iiiii"). What happens if you change the contents of the text field to
"wwwww"? (Bear in mind that is one of the narrowest characters, and w is one
of the widest.)

In case of exclusive Checkboxes, only one among a group of items can be
selected at a time. I f an item from the group is selected, the checkbox currently
checked is deselected and the new selection is highlighted. The exclusive
Checkboxes are also called as Radio buttons.
The non-exclusive checkboxes are not grouped together and each one can be
selected independent of the other.

Ans : No. Adding a component to a container automatically removes it from any
previous parent(container).

setBounds(int x, int y, int width, int height)
setBounds(Rectangle r)
setSize(int width, int height)
setSize(Dimension d)
setLocation(int x, int y)
setLocation(Point p)
39) How can we create a borderless window?

bottom, left to right fashion.
BorderLayout : The elements of a BorderLayout are organized at the
borders (North, South, East and West) and the center of a
container.
CardLayout : The elements of a CardLayout are stacked, one on top of the other,
