Interface VRMLHAnimNodeType

All Superinterfaces:

FrameStateListener, VRMLNode, VRMLNodeType

All Known Subinterfaces:

VRMLHAnimHumanoidNodeType

public interface VRMLHAnimNodeType

extends VRMLNodeType

Denotes a node type that is part of the HAnim component.

The Hanim component is internally implemented using the abstract HAnim system from the j3d.org Code Repository.

Method Detail

setHAnimFactory

public void setHAnimFactory(org.j3d.geom.hanim.HAnimFactory fac)

Set the current node factory to use. If this is set again, replace the current implementation node with a new one from this new instance. This may be needed at times when the user makes a change that forces the old way to be incompatible and thus needing a different implementation.

Nodes that have HAnim children, should recursively call this method on the children.

Parameters:

fac - The new factory instance to use

getHAnimObject

public org.j3d.geom.hanim.HAnimObject getHAnimObject()

Get the HAnim implementation node. Since the HAnim class instance is not the same as the basic geometry instance of the particular rendering API, we need to fetch this higher-level construct so that the scene graph can be constructed.

Returns:

The HAnimObject instance for this node
