[wxperl-users] Possible to embed a Java Applet in wxPerl?

[Mike S. <Mik...@Do...>]

We have a reporting system we use that has a Java applet client.  While 
we can run it along side our wxPerl application, it would be *nice* to 
integrate it into our application.  So....

Anyone have any ideas how to embed a Java applet into a Wx::Frame or 
Panel?  Some strange marriage of Inline::Java and Wx::Panel?  Or am I 
crazy?  :)

Thanks in advance.

Mike.

Sounds like a memory killer. :)

Not sure how you would handle the Inline::Java parts (do you need to=20
pass data back and forth?), but I'll suggest running the java applet=20
within an embedded (java-enabled) browser.  From what I've seen of the=20
guts of wxwebkit, and wxmozilla, it is non-trivial to get an alien gui=20
component to play nice in a wxpanel.

What I usually like to do in this case is to make the windows of the
sub-application (in this case, the Java app) the children of a window
of the main application. This works quite nicely, at least on
Windows. Get the window handle for your perl wxWindow, then use it to
create a "fake" window object in Java that you use as parrent for all
Java windows.
