Vexi Applet

From Vexi

Vexi is not yet available as an applet. However, that does not mean it is not feasible.

Applets are limited to 128mb of memory[1], and this is sufficient for most Vexi applications.

In general, applets loaded from the network are not allowed access to the local machine. Most limitations are for security reasons.

Specifically, applets can't[2]:

  • access files, create files, or start any programs on the client machine
  • make network connects except back to the host machine where the applet came from
  • load libraries
  • define native method calls
  • halt execution of the interpreter (can't call System.exit())
