org.web3d.vrml.renderer.norender.browser.NRUniverse

All Implemented Interfaces:

BrowserCore, EventModelInitListener

public class NRUniverse
extends Object
implements BrowserCore, EventModelInitListener

Representation of a Null renderer universe object suitable for use in single screen, stereo and walled environments.

Apart from the VirtualUniverse, this also holds all of the view information model.

The universe is responsible for handling the management of the viewpoints within a scene. VRML defines a single viewpoint model for multiple canvases. If we want to set this environment up for stereo rendering or CAVE type environments, the renderer will need to use a single view for all of them. If you are trying to perform multiple views of the scene graph, such as an editor environment, this universe is not suitable as it uses a single View object and attaches all canvases to that view and hence the underlying currently bound viewpoint.

The universe is not responsible for loading more VRML content. To handle anchors, it delegates to the supplied listener.

public NRUniverse(EventModelEvaluator eme)

Construct a default, empty universe that contains no scene graph.

Parameters:

eme - The event model evaluation processor

Method Details

worldInitComplete

public void worldInitComplete()

Notification from the event model evaluator that the initialization phase is now complete. Use this to send off the external Browser init event.

Specified by:

worldInitComplete in interface EventModelInitListener

changeWorld

public void changeWorld()

Notification that its safe to clear the world. The underlying rendering layer should now be cleared and loaded with the world.

Specified by:

changeWorld in interface EventModelInitListener

getRendererType

public int getRendererType()

Get the type of renderer that implements the browser core. The only valid values returned are the constants in this interface.

Specified by:

getRendererType in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The renderer type

getIDString

public String getIDString()

Get the ID string for this renderer.

Specified by:

getIDString in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The String token for this renderer.

setErrorReporter

public void setErrorReporter(org.j3d.util.ErrorReporter reporter)

Register an error reporter with the engine so that any errors generated by the loading of script code can be reported in a nice, pretty fashion. Setting a value of null will clear the currently set reporter. If one is already set, the new value replaces the old.

Specified by:

setErrorReporter in interface BrowserCore

Parameters:

reporter - The instance to use or null

setRenderingStyle

public void setRenderingStyle(int style)
                       throws IllegalArgumentException

Change the rendering style that the browser should currently be using for all layers. Various options are available based on the constants defined in this interface.

Specified by:

setRenderingStyle in interface BrowserCore

Parameters:

style - One of the RENDER_* constants

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - A style constant that is not recognized by the implementation was provided

getRenderingStyle

public int getRenderingStyle()

Get the currently set rendering style. The default style is RENDER_SHADED.

Specified by:

getRenderingStyle in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

one of the RENDER_ constants

setMinimumFrameInterval

public void setMinimumFrameInterval(int millis,
 boolean userSet)

Set the minimum frame interval time to limit the CPU resources taken up by the 3D renderer. By default it will use all of them. The second parameter is used to control whether this is a user-set hard minimum or something set by the browser internals. User set values are always treated as the minimum unless the browser internals set a value that is a slower framerate than the user set. If the browser then sets a faster framerate than the user set value, the user value is used instead.

Specified by:

setMinimumFrameInterval in interface BrowserCore

Parameters:

millis - The minimum time in milliseconds.

userSet - true if this is an end-user set minimum

getMinimumFrameInterval

public int getMinimumFrameInterval()

Get the currently set minimum frame cycle interval. Note that this is the minimum interval, not the actual frame rate. Heavy content loads can easily drag this down below the max frame rate that this will generate.

Specified by:

getMinimumFrameInterval in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The cycle interval time in milliseconds

getVRMLClock

public VRMLClock getVRMLClock()

Get the clock instance in use by the core. We need this for when new nodes are added to the scene to make sure they are all appropriately configured.

Specified by:

getVRMLClock in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The clock used by the browser core

getDEFMappings

public Map<String,VRMLNode> getDEFMappings()

Get the mapping of DEF names to the node instances that they represent. Primarily used for the EAI functionality. The map instance changes each time a new world is loaded so will need to be re-fetched. If no mappings are available (eg scripting replaceWorld() type call) then the map will be empty.

Specified by:

getDEFMappings in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The current mapping of DEF names to node instances

getWorldExecutionSpace

public VRMLExecutionSpace getWorldExecutionSpace()

Convenience method to ask for the execution space that the world is currently operating in. Sometimes this is not known, particularly if the end user has called a loadURL type function that is asynchronous. This will change each time a new scene is loaded.

Specified by:

getWorldExecutionSpace in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The current world execution space.

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Get the description string currently used by the world. Returns null if not set or supported.

Specified by:

getDescription in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The current description string or null

setDescription

public void setDescription(String desc)

Set the description of the current world. If the world is operating as part of a web browser then it shall attempt to set the title of the window. If the browser is from a component then the result is dependent on the implementation

Specified by:

setDescription in interface BrowserCore

Parameters:

desc - The description string to set.

getCurrentSpeed

public float getCurrentSpeed()

Get the current velocity of the bound viewpoint in meters per second. The velocity is defined in terms of the world values, not the local coordinate system of the viewpoint.

Specified by:

getCurrentSpeed in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

The velocity in m/s or 0.0 if not supported

getCurrentFrameRate

public float getCurrentFrameRate()

Specified by:

getWorldURL in interface BrowserCore

Returns:

A string of the URL or null if not supported.

setScene

public void setScene(VRMLScene scene,
