[Davisote]

Hi.
I've created a project which include one single file called
ClientCenter.java. It's the applet wich create by default JBuilder 8. I
added a simple menu bar and when I try to see it, no way.

Why doesn't work.??
Any suggestions?
Thanks

If it's that simple, then post the code, so we can see what might be
wrong. Also... you should be posting such quesitons in :

Hi.
Here is the code because news://borland.public.jbuilder.applet-issues seems
doesn't work
package myproject;

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.applet.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class myApplet extends Applet {
private boolean isStandalone = false;
JMenuBar jMenuBar1 = new JMenuBar();
JMenu jMenu1 = new JMenu();
JMenu jMenu2 = new JMenu();
//Get a parameter value
public String getParameter(String key, String def) {
return isStandalone ? System.getProperty(key, def) :
(getParameter(key) != null ? getParameter(key) : def);
}

//Construct the applet
public myApplet() {
}
//Initialize the applet
public void init() {
try {
jbInit();
}
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
//Component initialization
private void jbInit() throws Exception {
jMenu1.setText("File");
jMenu2.setText("About");
jMenuBar1.add(jMenu1);
jMenuBar1.add(jMenu2);
}
//Get Applet information
public String getAppletInfo() {
return "Applet Information";
}
//Get parameter info
public String[][] getParameterInfo() {
return null;
}
}

Thanks

Two mistakes in your code:
(1) Do not mix java.awt.Applet with Swing controls (see notes in code)
(2) You are not adding the JMenuBar to the Applet itself (see notes in
code)
