The pluggable application client provides a lightweight Java client environment<br />

without the J2EE APIs. The pluggable application client requires access to the<br />

CosNaming or JNDI interfaces for EJB or CORBA object resolution. As with the<br />

applet application client, tools are not provided to aid development and<br />

installation. A non-<strong>IBM</strong> JRE must be installed and the pluggable application client<br />

must be distributed to the client machine.<br />

The thin application client also provides a lightweight Java client environment in<br />

much the same way that the pluggable application client does. No tools are<br />

provided for the development and installation of the thin application client. Short<br />

names may not be used in the deployment descriptor to identify remote and local<br />

resources.<br />

Shown below is a table listing the functionality of each of the application clients.<br />
