When
does a Java applet stop?
A Java applet stops when it is
instructed to do so by the Web browser or applet viewer. Normally the programmer does not
have to worry too much about this.
An applet is embedded in another program,
usually a Web browser. If the user of the browser changes to another Web page, for
example, the applet must be able to stop immediately. The browser will signal to the
applet that it is about to be stopped, by calling, among others, its stop method. The
programmer only needs to do anything about this if there are certain actions that the
applet must carry out before it is stopped.
