Class SFBool

All Implemented Interfaces:
SFBool, X3DField

public class SFBool extends X3DConcreteField implements SFBool
This utility class provides a concrete implementation corresponding to SFBool X3D field type.

Warning: this is an abstract interface that cannot be instantiated as a concrete object. Java programmers typically only need to use concrete objects provided by the org.web3d.x3d.jsail classes.
Package hint: This specification class is defined by the X3D Java Language Binding Specification for the Scene Authoring Interface (SAI). SFBool is a logical type with possible values (true|false) to match the XML boolean type. Hint: XML boolean values are lower case (true|false) in order to maintain compatibility with HTML and other XML documents.

    Modifier and Type
    Field
    Description

    static final String
    Default string value for this field type is "false".
    static String
    String constant for boolean value false, note lower-case value is X3D XML syntax (upper-case value is VRML syntax)

    static final String
    Default regular expression (regex) pattern for this field type is \s*(true|false)\s*
    static String
    String constant for boolean value true, note lower-case value is X3D XML syntax (upper-case value is VRML syntax)
