Interface VRMLScene

All Superinterfaces:

BasicScene

All Known Implementing Classes:

CRVRMLScene, SAIVRMLScene

public interface VRMLScene

extends BasicScene

Abstract representation of a complete scene in VRML.

The scene returns lists of nodes of the given type. This list contains all of the nodes of that type in the order that they are declared in the incoming stream. As the scene changes due to scripting and external interactions, it will add new instances of these nodes to the end of the list. If there is none of the given node types, the methods shall return empty lists.

Method Detail

getFirstProto

public VRMLProtoDeclare getFirstProto()

Get the first PROTO declared in this scene. EXTERNPROTO's are not included in this list. If no protos are declared it will return null.

Returns:

The first proto declared or null

getProtos

public java.util.Map getProtos()

Get the list of ordinary PROTO's declared in this scene. EXTERNPROTOs are not included in this list.

Returns:

The list of proto declarations in this scene

getExternProtos

public java.util.Map getExternProtos()

Get the list of EXTERNPROTOs declared in this scene. The instances may or may not have been loaded at this point. Check with the interface declaration to see if this is the case.

Returns:

The list of EXTERNPROTO instances in this scene

getExports

public java.util.Map getExports()

Get the list of exports from this file. The map is the exported name to the node def name. To fetch the real node instance you then need to make another call to getDEFNodes(). If there are no nodes exported, the map will be empty. Note that exported nodes is not a valid concept for VRML97. It only exists for X3D V3.0 and above.

Returns:

A map of the exported nodes
