Description

The ButtonTest Applet has two processes an instance of ActiveButton and an anonymous process running in Parallel.

The anonymous process has an infinite loop which reads one object from the event Channel and upon receiving the Object increases a counter and then displays this count on a Label.

NOTE: The Java Event thread is a process which is created by the Java runtime environment and calls the itemStateChanged method when one of the components the Applet is listening to generates an ItemEvent.

The purpose of this test is to check to see if the events are notified correctly and that the configuration functions correctly.

NOTE: The code for this Applet is not a good example of developing programs using the library, it has been designed to allow the component to be tested without depending on more classes from the library than is necessary.
