SYNOPSIS

12       appletviewer [ options ] urls ...
13

DESCRIPTION

15       The appletviewer command connects to the documents or resources  desig‐
16       nated  by  urls and displays each applet referenced by the documents in
17       its own window. Note: if the documents referred to by urls do not  ref‐
18       erence  any  applets  with  the  OBJECT,  EMBED,  or  APPLET  tag, then
19       appletviewer  does  nothing.  For  details  on  the  HTML   tags   that
20       appletviewer supports, see AppletViewer Tags @
21       http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/appletview‐
22       ertags.html.

24       Note: The appletviewer is intended for development purposes only. See
25       About Sample / Test Applications and Code for more information.
26
27       Note: The appletviewer requires encoded URLs according to the escaping
28       mechanism defined in RFC2396. Only encoded URLs are supported. However,
29       file names must be unencoded, as specified in RFC2396.

OPTIONS

32          -debug
33             Starts the applet viewer in the Java debugger, jdb(1), thus
34             allowing you to debug the applets in the document.
35
36          -encoding    encoding name
37             Specify the input HTML file encoding name.
38
39          -Jjavaoption
40             Passes through the string javaoption as a single argument to the
41             Java interpreter which runs the appletviewer. The argument should
42             not contain spaces. Multiple argument words must all begin with
43             the prefix -J, which is stripped. This is useful for adjusting
44             the compiler's execution environment or memory usage.
