I've started programming my first applets in June this summer. My study book from my education was entirely based on applets since back then it was very promising. I Have not been programming since, I wanted to pick it up. So this summer I've been programming from this book again. This was successful on the Eclipse version of that time if I set my project to java 1.8.

fast forward to now.
I reinstalled my computer (mac) and went from 10.10.5 to 10.12.6.
I installed the latest Eclipse IDE and wanted to run a couple of Applets I made this summer.

However none of the previous programs runs. Note: these are very simple programs. Who can help me run these programs again in the Applet viewer.The error I;m getting is:

Error: Could not find or load main class sun.applet.AppletViewer
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: sun.applet.AppletViewer

Which version of Java did you install on your computer? On the Mac you should really install a JDK, not just a JRE. Java itself has changed a lot going from Java 8 to Java 11, with things actually being removed from Java 11, so likely you'll have less problems if you use Java 8.
