Interface X3DBindableNode

All Superinterfaces:
X3DChildNode, X3DNode
All Known Subinterfaces:
Background, Fog, GeoViewpoint, NavigationInfo, OrthoViewpoint, TextureBackground, Viewpoint, X3DBackgroundNode, X3DViewpointNode
All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface X3DBindableNode extends X3DChildNode
Bindable nodes implement the binding stack, so that only one of each node type is active at a given time.

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 interface is defined by the X3D Java Language Binding Specification for the Scene Authoring Interface (SAI).
