<h1>
Launching a Java applet
</h1>
<p>If your Java program is structured as an applet, you can use the <strong> Java
Applet </strong>launch configuration.&nbsp; This launch configuration uses information
derived from the workbench preferences and your program's Java project to launch the program.
</p>
<ol>
<li> In the Package Explorer, select the Java compilation unit or class file
you want to launch. </li>
<li>From the pop-up menu, select <strong>Run &gt; Java Applet</strong>. Alternatively,
select <strong>Run &gt; Run As &gt; Java Applet </strong>in the workbench
menu bar, or select <strong>Run As &gt; Java Applet </strong>in the drop-down
menu on the <strong>Run</strong> tool bar button.&nbsp; </li>
<li> Your program is now launched. </li>
</ol>
<p>You can also launch a Java applet by selecting a project instead of the
compilation unit or class file.&nbsp; You will be prompted to select a class
from those classes that extend Applet.&nbsp; (If only one applet class is
found in the project, that class is launched as if you selected it.)</p>
