The Essential JViews Framework > Framework JavaBeans > Creating a Simple Applet Using ILOG JViews Beans

In this section, you will create a simple ILOG JViews applet using ILOG JViews Framework Beans. No coding will be necessary. The applet you create is a simple Swing applet that displays a butterfly with a toolbar allowing you to zoom and pan the content of the view. This section does not explain the concepts that underlie JavaBeans. For this information, refer to the Web site: http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans. Furthermore, we assume that you are familiar with the manipulation of JavaBeans inside your IDE.

Note
 The Swing Beans that you will use have the letter "J" in the prefix of the Bean name. You could also create the same type of application using only AWT controls. To do so, you would simply use the IlvScrollManagerView Bean that is an AWT control instead of the IlvJScrollManagerView Bean.

The following example is carried out using a typical IDE procedure. It contains the following steps:

  1. Creating the Manager View
  2. Setting the Properties of the Manager View
  3. Creating a Manager and Displaying its Content in a View
  4. Loading an .ivl File into the Manager
  5. Adding a Control Toolbar Bean
  6. Configuring the toolbar
  7. Testing the Result
