Getting an error "No main class found" when I tried to run a simple program on NetBeans.

package javaapp;

import javax.swing.JApplet;
import java.awt.Graphics;

public class JavaApp extends JApplet
{
    public void paint(Graphics canvas) 
    {
        canvas.drawOval(100, 50, 200, 200);
        canvas.fillOval(155, 100, 10, 20);
        canvas.fillOval(230, 100, 10, 20);
        canvas.drawArc(150, 160, 100, 50, 180, 180);
    }
}

I tried to run this code which draws a smiley face on a canvas. I ran this code also on Eclipse, where it compiled fine. But on NetBeans, it keeps saying it can't find the main class. Is NetBeans recommended for a beginner like me or should I look for another IDE that better suits for a beginner? I am more fond with the NetBeans because the interface seems more friendly.

Right click the project node and choose 'run' from the list. Don't right click the file (run file) as this doesn't work in NetBeans.

In netbeans, right click on the project and chose properties. Under Application > Webstart, there is an option Applet class. specify the full path to your main class (i.e with package names).
