About browser apps: native code and certificate applets

I was reading about the new chrome client support and I was wondering what are the advantages / disadvantages versus writing a Java applet with a certificate?

Quick note. A Java applet with a security certificate can execute code on the user's computer and bypass the Java Security Manager.

Thanks,

A native client can be compared to a Java applet without a certificate. Difference in speed (native client is faster) and portability (you need multiple versions of your code (x86, x64, arm)). The rest is the difference between a java applet with and without a certificate.

Questions:



  • What browsers are you using? Only chrome?
  • What devices are you targeting? Desktop computers as well as iPhones, RIMs, etc. On iPhone, you cannot run applets.
  • Will end users have the flexibility to install a Java browser plugin?
