    An Easy C++ Question

    I've done some very basic c++ programs already but I had a question.

    Runescape is programmed in Java. I really like the fact that you can play the game directly from their website without having to download the entire game. Is this possible to do with an MMORPG written in c++ or is it only possible in java?

    Thanks!

    Are you saying you want to embed an application written in C++ to a webpage?

    No, it is not possible, however, if you were determined enough, I am pretty sure that you can develop your own plugin for Firefox or IE even, to let your application operate from the browser.

    An Easy C++ Question

    Java was a language created almost entirely because of the internet. With the internet being as it is, people needed a new way to deliver content, and hence Java was born.

    There is no way to do this in native C or C++. Java uses its own framework (otherwise known as the Java Runtime Library), and uses modules/plugins for the various browsers so that you can view these applets inside of your browser. So, unless you wrote your own framework and got millions of people to use it, I doubt there is any other way than to use things like Java.
