Problem:

The exact Applet lifecycle sequence is historically differently in JPI on each platforms. This causes a lot of problems in the past because of this consistency, so applet code may work on one platform but completely broken on the other.

Solution:

Revisit the applet lifecycle sequence in JPI and ensure they are consistent across platforms. Also, pay special attention to the applet shutdown sequence to avoid any potential resource leak.
