28. Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition28 Differences Between Applets and GUI Applications  Applets  Derived from JApplet.  No main method.  Uses init method.  Displayed by HTML.  Sets title in HTML.  Size set in HTML.  Applet closes when HTML doc closes.  GUI applications  Class extends JFrame.  Invokes main method.  Uses constructors.  Uses method setVisible.  Uses setTitle method.  Uses method setSize.  Closes with Exit button.

29. Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Second Edition29 Converting a GUI Application to an Applet  Change JFrame to JApplet.  Change constructor to method init.  Remove method calls such as setVisible, setTitle, setSize.  Remove the method main.  If applicable, remove Exit button and all code associated with it (for example, action listener).
