KDE Java Applet Server (KJAS)
The KDE Java Applet Server (KJAS) is a mechanism for easily adding Java applet support to applications. KJAS consists of two parts - a pure java server process that handles the details of the actual downloading and invocation of the applets, and a binding to the application that the applet is running in. For KDE developers the application binding is handled in the form of the KJavaAppletWidget, a QWidget that contains a Java applet. The server and application communicate using a standard UNIX pipe, so it is easy to add bindings to other toolkits, for example a binding to perl/Tk should be fairly straight forward. You can even use the server from a shell script if you like!Included in the distrinbution is both the source code, and the documentation for the classes that implement the server:
