AppletGen v0.9
Copyright 1996 Nelson Yu. All rights reserved.

The documentation for AppletGen is in AppDoc.zip which contains:

AppletGen1.html
AppletGen2.html
AppletGen3.html
(gifs..)

Applet.zip contains:

Applet.exe      - Executable
Applet.ini      - Demo ini file
AppletGen.bat   - Batch file to compile and run the appletviewer
Readme          - This document

The version of AppletGen is beta and is currently a Win16 app. A Win32
version is expected next month or in March. The UI 95% is complete, but the
underlying functionality needs to be corrected/fixed. Please send me
suggestions or possible bugs.

The lastest version can be found here

----------------------- Bugs and missing features ----------------------

Here a few bugs that I think AppletGen has

1) Current directory is where APPLET.INI is stored. Which maybe different
from the DOS shell directory where AppletGen is started.

2) Threading code maybe incorrect

3) Code generation of variables, constants and applet tags may have quirks
if used with lesser-used types such as booleans and bytes.

4) Date maybe incorrect
5) Default values in the INI file causes problems
6) Older INI file is displayed in the INI editor
7) Doesn't seem to work w/ Solaris WABI

Missing functionality:

1) Thread groups
2) Compilation of Java source code
3) Execution of appletviewer
4) Data validation. i.e URLs
5) Resolution independance. The resolution indepedant version only looked
good maximized.

Drop me a line if you have suggestions or know of more bugs.
