I have made a GUI in Java using State Based Game, as it extends StateBasedGame
and not JApplet
its not a true applet, I want to put it on a website and am unsure on how to do this, I have been told that the following code allows me to make this into an applet using html and not having to edit the Java code:
<applet code="org.lwjgl.util.applet.AppletLoader"
archive="org.lwjgl.util.applet.AppletLoader"
codebase="."
width="640" height="480">
<param name="al_title" value="Ham Blaster">
<param name="al_main" value="org.newdawn.slick.AppletGameContainer">
<param name="game" value="org.javagame.Game">
<param name="al_jars" value="racegame.jar, lwjgl.jar, slick.jar">
<param name="al_windows" value="windows_natives.jar">
<param name="al_linux" value="linux_natives.jar">
<param name="al_mac" value="macosx_natives.jar">
<param name="separate_jvm" value="true">
</applet>
When I run the html code I get the following error on the centre of my screen:
An error occurred while loading the applet. Please contact support to resolve this issue. missing required applet parameter: al_main.
I have looked inside slick for the ApplerGameContainer
but I can only find chrome files, I tried putting these in the same directory as the html file but I still get the same error.
If something seems very simple and may seem too obvious to ask me, please tell me because I am new to Java, my previous error with this code was because I did not have my html and lwjgl_util_applet.jar in the same directory, so please tell me anything that may help me.
Emm...
I am not pretty sure, but according to sources the error comes from init method
/*
* @see java.applet.Applet#init()
*/
public void init() {
state = STATE_INIT;
// sanity check
String[] requiredArgs = {"al_main", "al_logo", "al_progressbar", "al_jars"};
for(int i=0; i<requiredArgs.length; i++) {
if(getParameter(requiredArgs[i]) == null) {
fatalErrorOccured("missing required applet parameter: " + requiredArgs[i], null);
return;
}
//... }
}
so it seems your al_main param value is null or something :S
The problem is maybe someplace here
<param name="al_main" value="org.newdawn.slick.AppletGameContainer">
... maybe because I don't see you to init all the rest required params as "al_logo", "al_progressbar"
Anyways, it would be more helpful you to show the problem code
Report if it helps
