2) Does Swing Is Thread-Safe? Ans: No, Java Swing Components Are Not Thread-Safe in Java

Java Swing components are not thread-safe because it simplifies extending them and adding locks for thread safety would add overhead. Swing components are also not thread-safe due to the need to obtain and release locks and restore state between threads. Some Swing component methods like repaint(), revalidate(), and invalidate() support multi-threaded access.

2)Does Swing is thread-safe?

Ans : No, Java Swing components are not thread-safe in Java.

 One of the main reason for Java Swing is not thread-safe is to simplify the task of
extending its components.
Another reason for the JRegarding the case where an applet is loaded
from the client’s local disk, the applet is loaded by the file system
loader. Applets loaded via the file system are allowed to read files,
write files and to load libraries on the client. Also, applets loaded via
the file system are allowed to execute processes and finally, applets
loaded via the file system are not passed through the byte code
verifier.

8)What is the applet class loader, and what does it provide ?

When an applet is loaded over the internet, the applet is loaded by


the applet classloader. The class loader enforces the Java name
space hierarchy. Also, the class loader guarantees that a unique
namespace exists for classes that come from the local file system,
and that a unique namespace exists for each network source. When
a browser loads an applet over the net, that applet’s classes are
placed in a private namespace associated with the applet’s origin.

9) What is the applet security manager, and what does it


provide ?

The applet security manager is a mechanism to impose restrictions


on Java applets. A browser may only have one security manager.
The security manager is established at startup, and it cannot
thereafter be replaced, overloaded, overridden, or extended.

10) How do you set security in applets?

using setSecurityManager() method

11) How will you communicate between two appltes?

java.applet.AppletContext class provides the facility of


communication between applets.

12) What is the sequence of interpretation, compilation of a


java applet?

 ava Swing is not thread-safe due to the overhead involved in obtaining and
releasing locks and restoring the state.
 Some of the Java Swing component methods will support multi-threaded access
like repaint(), revalidate(), and invalidate() methods of JComponent class.
4)Why Swing components are called lightweight components?
Ans : It is a lightweight component because it will not depend on
any native system class.
5)What is the difference between invokeAndWait and invokeLater?
Ans : Main difference between invokeAndWait() and invokeLater()
is invokeAndWait() keeps the code on to event thread and waits till the execution of
run method is completed whereas invokeLater() keeps the code on event thread
and runs the rest of code in the thread.
