Java Applets

[Jacques Le Roux]

Hi,

While reviewing http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1811438 I stumbled upon the usage of Java Applets

It's still possible to use Java Applets in browsers but it's most of the time it's not OOTB
https://www.digitalcitizen.life/how-enable-java-all-major-web-browsers

And Java 9 deprecates it https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/jdk9_plugin.xml

Should  we continue to support Java Applets?

I'm in favor of removing any Java Applets. It was an idea born dead.

With that being said, there is very little code in the code base for
applets. On a quick grep I only saw these files (one or few lines in
each). Probably not used by anyone.
- applications/datamodel/data/seed/ContentSeedData.xml
- applications/party/webapp/partymgr/WEB-INF/controller.xml
- applications/party/template/visit/VisitDetail.ftl
- applications/content/data/ContentSecurityGroupDemoData.xml
- framework/security/config/SecurityEntityLabels.xml
- framework/common/src/main/java/org/apache/ofbiz/common/CommonEvents.java
- plugins/ldap/src/main/java/org/apache/ofbiz/ldap/LdapLoginWorker.java
