Support for Java Applets has been removed from just released Java JDK 11. (See https://www.infoq.com/news/2018/09/java11-released for more information)
Does it means support of applets will be removed from Java JRE 11 as well ? In other words, will it be possible to run Java applets with Java JRE 11 ?
With that no longer being the case, Applet support ended in March 2019. Oracle announced in January 2016 that Applets would be deprecated in Java SE 9, and the technology was removed in Java SE 11.
In JDK 11, this is no longer an option. In this release, the JRE or Server JRE is no longer offered. Only the JDK is offered. Users can use jlink to create smaller custom runtimes.
You must install the Java 1.6. 0_10 plug-in or later applets simply will not work! We have also found that you might need to clear out the Java cache ("Temporary Internet Files") using the Java Console. Upgrade to Java 1.5 or 1.6 (version 1.6.
Note that both Java Applets and Java Web Start were removed completely in Java SE 11 (release September 2018). From that version on there is no (supported) way to run Applets or Web Start applications.
As written here: Java Client Roadmap Update
During the past five years, most browser vendors have withdrawn support for plugins such as Flash, Silverlight, and Java in their products. Supporting Java Applets in browsers was only possible as long as browser vendors were committed to supporting standards based plugins. By late 2015, many browser vendors had either removed or announced timelines for the removal of standards-based plugin support, while some introduced proprietary browser-specific extension APIs. Consequently:
- Existing Applet support in Java SE 8 will continue through March 2019, after which it may be removed at any time.
- Oracle announced in January 2016 that Applets would be deprecated in Java SE 9, and removed from Java SE 11 (18.9).
The Alternative: You will need to find potential Third Party Replacement. Import explicitly (eg using maven)
