The code examples graphically described.
• The InstallerApplet in Chapter 7 (Listings 7.6-7) shows how an application can be
downloaded and installed via a Web page by using a Java applet. It relies upon the Plug-
In technology that comes bundled with Sun's JRE installation package.
• Code provided in Chapter 5 shows how to install Java executables for some non-J2SE
platforms (J2ME MIDlet profile, JavaCard, and J2EE are covered).
Note that all the code examples reported in the following sections provide such a deployment
service.
Automatic Updates and Additional JREs
The code samples in this topic that implement such a deployment feature are included in the
following two sections.
JNLP 1.0
The following code samples show some uses of JNLP deployment technology. They are orga-
nized in three lists for quicker access.
