General <strong>Java</strong> Questions II<br />

Q: I wonder what happened if I remove "deprecations" from my code, for<br />

example size() and put getSize().<br />

Don't the programs work any more on older browsers (e.g. IE3)?<br />

Answer: Check the docs to see whether they say "Since 1.1", "Since 1.2" or "Since<br />

1.3" - if so, they will not work in the oldest MS VM.<br />

Keep in mind that Sun's programmers haven't been very good at actually<br />

documenting this for all classes and methods.<br />

or directly here:<br />

To check your code against any version of the JRE (1.1, 1.2, 1.3), use<br />

<strong>Java</strong>PureCheck: http://java.sun.com/100percent/<br />

Q: How do we exchange data between <strong>Java</strong> and <strong>Java</strong>Script and vice-versa?<br />

Visit us here and you will find<br />

much more tips!<br />

Answer: Public variable and methods of <strong>Java</strong> Applet are visible to a HTML document.<br />

So using <strong>Java</strong>Script you can access the public variables and public functions.<br />

The syntax is:<br />

var some_var = document.appletname.variable_name<br />

With this you will get the value of the variable variable_name in your <strong>Java</strong>Script<br />

variable some_var.<br />

Q: Constructors and methods: are they the same?<br />
