Class BaseTimeDependentNode

java.lang.Object
  org.web3d.vrml.renderer.common.nodes.AbstractNode
      org.web3d.vrml.renderer.common.nodes.BaseTimeDependentNode

All Implemented Interfaces:

VRMLNode, FrameStateListener, VRMLChildNodeType, VRMLNodeType, VRMLTimeDependentNodeType, VRMLWorldRootChildNodeType

Direct Known Subclasses:

BaseTimeControlledNode

public abstract class BaseTimeDependentNode
extends AbstractNode
implements VRMLTimeDependentNodeType

An abstract representation of any form of time dependent node for subclassing by specific implementations.

The implementation performs the basic handling of the time fields but does not create any data structures for them to run with.

The sim clock this node uses

Constructor Detail

BaseTimeDependentNode

protected BaseTimeDependentNode(java.lang.String name)

Initialise the time dependent node and it's fields that are held locally.

Parameters:

name - The name of the type of node

Method Detail

setVRMLClock

public void setVRMLClock(VRMLClock clk)

Set the vrmlClock that this time dependent node will be running with. The vrmlClock provides all the information and listeners for keeping track of time. If we are enabled at the time that this method is called we automatically register the listener. Then, all the events that need to be generated will be handled at the next vrmlClock tick we get issued.

Specified by:

setVRMLClock in interface VRMLTimeDependentNodeType

Parameters:

clk - The vrmlClock to use for this node
