I am trying to create an applet, but at the bottom of the screen (in the status bar) it says "Applet CheckerboardPatterns notinited". I am using some examples from my textbook, but I still cannot see what I am doing wrong. Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

Welcome to JavaRanch!

You can generally get more information about what went wrong by looking at the Java Console. Details of how to get to this vary depending on your OS and browser.

Just looking at the code, I see that it would require Java 1.5; perhaps you've got a Java 1.4 or earlier plugin in your browser. But that's just a guess; the Java Console would tell you for sure.

OK, so there's just a little problem with your HTML file: you're using "CheckerboardPatterns.class" where you should just be using "CheckerboardPatterns" .

In the examples that I am using, it has "Classname.class" in the html file.

I have gone in and changed the path and classpath and now the examples that were working before are not working now. Here is what my Environment Variables look like:

End User Variables:

CLASSPATH
.;C:\java

PATH
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin;C:\java


System Variables:

CLASSPATH
.;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\lib\ext\QTJava.zip;C:\java

Path
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\


Any help is appreciated.

OK, I have fixed my path and class path. Here�s what they are set to:
Environment Variables
User Variables
CLASSPATH=.;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\bin;C:\java
PATH=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin

System Variables
CLASSPATH=.;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0\lib\ext\QTJava.zip
Path=%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0\bin



At http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/new2java/ it shows an html file with the .class at the end:



I took the .class out of my html file and I am still getting this in the Java Console:

Is the class CheckerboardPatterns located in the same directory as the HTML file (and class SimpleApplet)?

Yes, class CheckerboardPatterns is located in the same directory as the HTML file. What is class SimpleApplet?

I have rewritten the program and I am having some problems with using enums, strings, and ints together in my paintDiagonals method. Am I using the right approach to number the squares diagonally moving up from left to right?

Are you trying to load it through a browser? Have you tried appletviewer?
