ExternalView	Abstract representation of code that presents an external view of the browser to client code.
InputEventBuffer	Abstract representation of a class that will buffer input events between frames when they are used by the individual renderers.
NetworkManager	The manager of network interactions.
NetworkProtocolHandler	A handler for a specific network protocol.
NodeManager	Abstract representation of a class that needs to manage a specific class of nodes in the system.
PickingManager	An abstract representation of a class that would be responsible for performing all the picking componet by the class.

SimpleRouterFactory	A factory interface for generating SimpleRouter instances.
TerrainSectorManager	The manager of terrain sectors at runtime.

Package org.web3d.vrml.nodes.runtime Description

Optional Utility classes to do runtime processing of the scenegraph (The event model).

Classes in this package can be divided into two main areas - route processing and bindable node handling. In each case we can implement these without needing to know about a specific rendering implementation of the nodes. The idea is that you can take these and plug them in with the nodes interfaces and create a complete working event model.

Route Management

Route management exists as an abstract system with different implementations. All routes management implementations are based on the RouteManager interface. This interface serves to allow the rest of a browser implementation to work regardless of the actual implementation while allowing your code to experiment with differemt capabilites and optimisation routines. For example, you could change the route handling from breadth first to depth first without modifying any other code.

Bindables Management

There are a lot of uses for bindable nodes in the VRML scene graph. These all follow the same behaviour, just the visual output is different. There is a lot of behaviour that gets repeated over and over so this cleans up all of this into a single neat package.

Properties

The following properties are in use by classes in this package.
