- pjmlp 10y agoThey aren't supported in Java 9.
- m-p-3 10y agoGood. It was one thing we always disabled in our deployment of JRE. One less vulnerable entry point for those who needed it on their workstations.
- Sindisil 10y agoYes they are. They're deprecated, but not gone. Not that it much matters, since Chrome doesn't support the NPAPI plugin, and FireFox is expected to drop support early in the new year, leaving Applets an essentially IE only thing.
- donretag 10y agoAnd in Java, anything deprecated is never really removed.
- pjmlp 10y agoNot paying attention to the JEPs? http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/277 http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/277 There was a session at Java ONE about a set of API that will be gone in Java 10 after this gets introduced in Java 9.

- snuxoll 10y agoHopefully Java WebStart doesn't go anytime soon, I still rely on that for OOB management on my servers without needing to boot Windows and use IE + the .Net consoles.
- pjmlp 10y agoJava Webstart is the official way for applet alternatives, according to the Java blog.
