Package org.web3d.x3d.sai.Shaders

Interface ComposedShader

All Superinterfaces:
X3DAppearanceChildNode, X3DNode, X3DProgrammableShaderObject, X3DShaderNode
All Known Implementing Classes:
ComposedShader
public interface ComposedShader extends X3DShaderNode, X3DProgrammableShaderObject
ComposedShader can contain field declarations, but no CDATA section of plain-text source code, since programs are composed from child ShaderPart nodes.

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. X3D node tooltip: (X3D version 3.1 or later) [X3DShaderNode,X3DProgrammableShaderObject] ComposedShader defines a shader where the individual source files are assembled from contained ShaderPart program sections. All access to shading capabilities is defined through a single interface that applies to all parts. Hint: ComposedShader contains field declarations and then corresponding IS/connect statements (if any), followed by <ShaderPart containerField='parts'/> nodes. Warning: ComposedShader does not contain CDATA section of plain-text source code. All source programs are contained in child ShaderPart nodes. Hint: apply default containerField='shaders' when parent node is Appearance. *


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

      ComposedShader setActivate(boolean newValue)
      Accessor method to assign boolean value to inputOnly SFBool field named activate.

      setActivate in interface X3DShaderNode
      Parameters:
      newValue - is new value for the activate field.
      Returns:
      ComposedShader - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

    • getIsSelected

      boolean getIsSelected()
      Provide boolean value from outputOnly SFBool field named isSelected.

      Tooltip: isSelected indicates this shader instance is selected for use by browser Warning: it is an error to define this transient outputOnly field in an X3D file, instead only use it a source for ROUTE events. *

    • getIsValid

      boolean getIsValid()
      Provide boolean value from outputOnly SFBool field named isValid.
