Thank you very much Layne for your very clear explanation.
If your time permits, could you please throw some light on JavaWebstart also in this way. Of course, I read the above link on JavaWebstart, but it is more technical. I want something as simple an explanation as you did for the Plug-in.
Thanks in advance,

Thanks a lot Ilja for your reply. Still I have some questions related to this.
During java 1.1 days, I used to run applets in a browser and I didn't see any Java Plug-In at that time.
Why do I need it now?
What are the example situations where I can do that only in the presence of Java Plug-In?
What are the example situations where I don't need Plug-In.

Is this Plug-in a part of JRE? If so, is it an OPTIONAL part or MANDATORY part?
I will appreciate if you could throw some light on this.

Similarly, if you could give me some more examples which illustrate where Java Webstart is needed and where it is not needed, I will be very thankful to you.
Regards,

Hi,
I have read some stuff about Java Plug-ins and Java WebStart separately but I couldn't understad differences between them. Could someone provide me some specific links which illustrate the following points?

1. When do you use Plug-In and when do you use JWS?

2. What was the actual need for introducing these tools?

Hello,
I know that the objects are created on HEAP and so I believe that the references to it reside on STACK.

Is an array created on STACK or on HEAP ? In other words, does it behave like a primitive variable (which is created on STACK) or like an object (Which is created on HEAP or in between? If it is in between, what is on STACK and what is on HEAP?

Thanks in advance

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I have one more question regarding this.
Is an array created on STACK or on HEAP ?
I know that the objects are created on HEAP and the references to it reside on STACK.
In the case of arrays, what is on STACK and what is on HEAP?
Thanks again.

Hello,
I am a java newbie and I couldn't find answer to this situation in any of the books available in my college. Please help understand this.

How is it that I am not able to assign values to arrays outside of a method?

class TestArrays
{
int classid;
int studentids[]= int[10];

classid = 10; // I can assign values to this without a problem
studentids[0] = 20; /** I can't do this..Why? I can do this with out a problem if I put this in a main method or any other method.*/

}
