Description

The InstanceEvent notifies Java applets of techexplorer life cycle changes. The life cycle of the techexplorer plug-in is dictated by the web browser. At various stages in techexplorer's life cycle, several occurrences may be of interest to Java applets. Such occurrences include techexplorer initialization and shutdown as well as instance creation and destruction.

Current Restriction: To date, the InstanceEvent is only used as a mechanism for notifying Java applets that a techexplorer instance is going to be deleted. Please be referred to the Getting Started section for more information regarding the life cycle of the techexplorer plug-in
