lmappletserver is a Java applet integration framework designed for the J2EE environment. It streamlines the process of incorporating Java applets into your project.
With its key features, lmappletserver offers a truly seamless remote access experience. You no longer need to deal with RMI or complex remote object code, as everything is handled within the applet itself. This drastically reduces development times and allows for more efficient coding.
Another great feature of lmappletserver is its automatic applet packaging and deployment. As you write your applet code using your favorite IDE, lmappletserver automatically packages and deploys it within your application. This means that your code can be immediately used by calling clients without any additional effort on your part.
In addition, lmappletserver boasts an extremely lightweight client for use within applets and other similar applications. You no longer need to worry about heavy web service or EJB3 client libraries, as lmappletserver handles all of this for you.
lmappletserver also eliminates the need to code applet-server communication protocols or servlets to handle interaction. Its port 80 capability functions just like a web service, but without any additional overhead. And with annotations, you can easily expose your server-side methods to the applet.
Plus, lmappletserver offers automatic dependency loading, so you don't need to worry about managing dependencies. You can simply code as if your objects were local.
What's new in this release? You'll be pleased to know that lmappletserver now features auto packaging of jar file-based applets on the fly, complete with resources and everything. And automatic signing of applets that need to do out-of-sandbox operations has been added as well.
EJB3 is no longer a requirement with lmappletserver, as you may now use ordinary POJOs, such as those in Jakarta Tomcat, by annotating them with @AppletService and implementing a @AppletServiceInterface.
lmappletserver is reliable, efficient and a great choice for those who want an easy way to utilize EJB3 in their web start or applet applications. We highly recommend it as a framework to enhance your development experience.
