What makes Java special?

 

The Java has caused perhaps the greatest interest than any other development in the world of Internet. Everyone is talking about it. Everyone is excited about the possibilities for Java provides. It is the first way to include sound and animation in a website. Java also allows users to interact with the site. In addition to just reading it and perhaps filling a form, users can now play games, chat, get continuously updated data and more.

Here are some of the many features of Java:

  • Sound, which runs whenever the user loads a page
  • Music playing in the background of a page
  • Created animations
  • Video
  • Multimedia Games

 

The Java is not just a network programming language with special features.So, what makes Java special? Java is a programming language for distributed applications. Not just allow you to add new content pages but allows to add the code necessary. No need to wait for the release of a browser that supports this type of image or specific protocol game (special game protocol). With Java you send browsers both the content and the program to see this content at the same time.

 

What does that mean? Let's see. Up to now had to wait for your readers to inform their browsers before using a new content type. The competitiveness of Java is that it can be applied to any browser.

 

For example, you want to use EPS files to your site. Previously, we had to wait until at least one web browser implemented support EPS. Now do not wait. Instead, you can write your own code to view EPS files and send to any client requesting the page the same time they request the file EPS.

 

Suppose we want people to be able to search your online catalog (electronic card catalog). The database list but exists in a large system that does not speak HTTP. Before Java you could hope that some browser implemented your proprietary card catalog protocol or you could try to program some intermediate cgi-bin on a UNIX BOX to recognize HTTP, which is not easy. With Java, if a client wants to talk on your list can send the code needed.

 

The Java language is not only used for web sites. Java is a programming language that allows us to do what the traditional languages ​​like Fortran and C++. It is much more clear and easier to use than the other languages i mentioned. As a language Java is:

  • Simple
  • Object oriented
  • Distributed
  • Multithreaded
  • Dynamic
  • Architecture neutral
  • Portable
  • High performance
  • Robust
  • Secure 

 

INSTALLING JAVA

 

The Sun has the Java Developers Kit (JDK). Contains an applet viewer where you can see and test your applications. The JDK includes the javac compiler, the java interpreter, the javaprof profiler, the Java debugger and limited text. Most of the texts for the API and class library is the web site of the Sun.

 

You can find programs like that around the internet or from our site if you search u will find some results, such as :

Java Compile Links from Darule, and so on

 

RUNNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR FIRST MINI APPLET

 

Instructions on Unix:

 

Start the Applet Viewer by doing the following:

 

1. Open a command line prompt and cd into one of the directories in /usr/local/java/demo. For example:

% Cd /usr/local/java/demo/DemoGame

2. Run the appletviewer file html:

% Appletviewer example1.html

3. Play DemoGame.

 

 

Instructions for Windows:

 

Start the Applet Viewer by doing the following:

 

Open a DOS window and cd into one of the directories in C:\Users\JAVA\DEMO. For example

C:> cd C:\Users\JAVA\DEMO\DemoGame

2. Run the appletviewer file html:

C:> appletviewer example1.htm

3. Play DemoGame.

 

Applets in Netscape:

 

The Netscape 3.0 and later will run the mini Java applications almost everywhere except Windows 3.1. The Netscape has a page, JAVA DEMO PAGE, with links to various applications, of which most are running. Nevertheless do not be surprised if an application does not work properly in Netscape.

 

You can find Java Tutorial, actually one of the best out there and reliable source since its from Oracle itself.

Java Video Series with wonderful explanation by thenewboston:

 

 

I suggest you before watching the Java Game Development videos, complete the basics.(beginner-intermediate) series.

 

Credits: Me, google for some resources

PS: I'll add more information and code explanations when i have free time.

In the meantime if you have any questions about java pm.(if u pm me about "please fix olympiad system on my server" and such pms they will be ignored.)

Updated!

You can now watch those great videos from thenewboston, i'm sure you will learn a lot from this guy.

Also, tutorials from Oracle added.

If you still have problem with something you can pm me without hesitation.

You're better with oracle tuts, honestly thenewboston is a hypocrite, he learns as he dose the videos he just explains what he understands from the official tutorials and mostly bad. Learning from oracle is the best way to go honestly since it's forwarding you explicit from simple to really pro. Believe it or not i know ppl that guy included whom not even now don't fully understand regex in java and that's an insult to the language it'self.

Yeap, thats true. That's how i learned java in the first place.

Though, you know people's learning styles are divided into 3 categories

 

Visual: You prefer using pictures, images, and spatial understanding.

Aural: You prefer using sound and music.

Verbal: You prefer using words, both in speech and writing.

 

That's the only reason i posted both tutorials and videos.

 

Note: Do not try to copy paste the code, you learn nothing by that.

First learn the basics and then practise with examples by yourself.

    • For upcoming changes, You should consider making those 3 tabs (or whatever more You will have with new games) more visible and standing out, because right it looks like all topics hidden under those 3 tabs.
    • While not particularly active over the years, I've been around for as long as I could remember, so here are my 2 cents too. On top of what has already been said, I'd like to touch on a few thing that might be improved upon. While it is easy to notice and say "there's lack of engagement" or "community has outgrown the ganre", I've seen numerous forums get forgotten and die while others continue to thrive to this day. The main issue, in my humble opinion, is that the sector has been commercialised to an unsustainable extent. When nobody is willing to share anything, even if it is just a rework of an open-sourced or already-shared resource, the sense of "community" gets deminished. Now back on the pressing matter. From what I've seen, the lack of engagement could be circumvented with a redesign and functionality expansion that would/could/should include: - a built-in chat functionality. - incentives for engagement/interaction, ideas of which I'll list as separate pointers, as not to limit your creativity. But just as an example, from a more user/human perspective, having an easily identifiable way to get into "the club of the cool kids on the block", figuratively speaking, is an incentive on its own. - separation of the reputation into reactions and reputation. One to be used to posts, such as up-vote and what not, while the other to be awarded as means of appreciation. - automated ranks with actual benefits/perks, not like the current ones providing nothing. - the ability to hide text for user/group of users, not just premium/no premium. - increased visibility of the HOT topics and the RECENTLY ACTIVE threads/posts. Can be also expanded to most liked posts, etc. ps.: I'll update my post when I have some free time on my hands.
    • There was no way I didn't refunded or delivered files. I don't see You on my conrtact list on Discord, can You send me a message or at least tell me for what project was this updater? I always resolve if I can't deliver on time or customer bailes.
    • @rlfem123  I’m a web developer, and I work with technologies like Next.js and React. In the last 10 years, L2 Rankzone is the only one I’ve seen that actually did something different. All the others seem to have the same source code with different templates. L2 Hopzone also did an upgrade and, for the front end, is using Vue.js. Regarding web development, we have reached a point where you can easily create websites using libraries or frameworks. Simply pick one and start working. You will learn as you go. Personally, I prefer to build my back-end APIs in Laravel if it’s a big project since the ecosystem offers everything. For smaller projects, I choose Go. Then I use either React or Next.js to call my APIs, depending on the case. Next.js also supports Server-Side Rendering (SSR) if you want to hide some things from the client. Additionally, CSS libraries have almost everything you need nowadays to start building quickly with browser compatibility. You can seriously build an L2 website with ranks, a good design, and even a simple login/register system in just 3 days. Here are some CSS libraries I personally work with: https://tailwindui.com/components   https://ui.shadcn.com/   https://mui.com/material-ui/ Regarding the top websites i dont thing its worth the time and effort.  Its pretty simple to build one and the market is already bloated. In addition l2 is dying so i suggest to build top sites for many games.  THe main problem is not the build process rather the marketing one. You can build the most awesome website iin terms of functionality but if you marketing is week you wont exceed 10 concurrent users.
