public class DrawShapes
extends Applet
This is a small Java applet to allow people to draw a variety of shapes on the screen in a variety of colours. As an extension, the user can fill these shapes with the outline colour. Extend the "Applet" class as follows:

This function is called when the applet is run.

Constructors

o DrawShapes 
 public DrawShapes()

Methods

o init 
 public void init()
This function is called when the applet is run. All of the "startup" code is placed here. Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it has been loaded into the system. It is always called before the first time that the start method is called. subclass of Applet should override this method if it has initialization to perform.

Overrides:
init in class Applet
o action 
 public boolean action(Event evt,
                       Object obj)
Note: action() is deprecated. As of JDK 1.1 should register this component as ActionListener on component which fires action events.

This function defines an event handler. Invoked when an action occurs. Handles the action performed.

Overrides:
action in class Component
