e558. Multi-image interactive display in applets

This is the simplest applet to animate an array of images. In the practice, you should the use of double-buffering (which this example does isn't use ) to eliminate flickering.

Import java.applet.*;        Import java.awt.*; public classAnimappletExtends Applet implements Runnable {image[] images = new image[2];        int frame = 0;            volatile thread thread; public void init () {images[0] = GetImage (Getdocumentbase (),"Http://hostname/image0.gif"); IMAGES[1] = GetImage (Getdocumentbase (),"Http://hostname/image1.gif");        public void Start () {(thread = new Thread (this)). Start ();        } public void Stop () {thread = null; } public void Paint (Graphics g) {g.drawimage (Images[frame],0,0, this); } public void Run () {int delay = +; 1 second try {while (thread = = Thread.CurrentThread ()) {frame = (frame+1                    )%images.length;                    Repaint ();                Thread.Sleep (delay); }} catch (Exception e) {}}}
