Does a Java Applet always execute its code even when it losts focus? I've to put this applet in a web page. I'm tryng to understand this cause i've to develop an applet that listen to some hardware components through JavaPos. I have a callback method defined inside the applet and i'm not sure if it works even when users click on other page component. Thanks

Yes, unless of course the applet code intentionally stops execution on loss of focus.

  • thanks i've simulated input from hardware with a keylistener.. and this seems to be strictly related with the focus of the listening component – Antonio Foglia Apr 13 '14 at 09:48
