Interface NodeRealizationProcessor

All Known Implementing Classes:

ExternalEventQueue

public interface NodeRealizationProcessor

Interface for handling node realization requests. Due to the semantics of the external SAI, it is necessary to buffer requests to realize nodes while being able to determine which nodes have been buffered, and implementing that scheme ends up requiring a circular reference between the event and event queue, which this interface breaks.

Method Summary

boolean	isNodeRealized(VRMLNodeType node) Is the node realized or had realization requested?
void	markNodeRealized(VRMLNodeType node) Mark a node as undergoing realization
void	markRealizationComplete(VRMLNodeType node) Complete the realization of a node.

Method Detail

isNodeRealized

boolean isNodeRealized(VRMLNodeType node)

Is the node realized or had realization requested?

Parameters:

node - The node in question

Returns:

The current status

markNodeRealized

void markNodeRealized(VRMLNodeType node)

Mark a node as undergoing realization

markRealizationComplete

void markRealizationComplete(VRMLNodeType node)

Complete the realization of a node. Removes the realization processing record to free up memory.
