Method Detail

getDuration

double getDuration()

Provide double value in seconds within allowed range of [0,infinity) from initializeOnly SFTime field named duration.

Returns:

value of duration field

setDuration

X3DChaserNode setDuration(double newValue)

Assign double value in seconds within allowed range of [0,infinity) to initializeOnly SFTime field named duration.

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the duration field.

Returns:

X3DChaserNode - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

getIsActive

boolean getIsActive()

Provide boolean value from outputOnly SFBool field named isActive.

Specified by:

getIsActive in interface X3DFollowerNode

Returns:

value of isActive field

getMetadata

X3DMetadataObject getMetadata()

Provide X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) from inputOutput SFNode field metadata.

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DChildNode

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DFollowerNode

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DNode

Returns:

value of metadata field

See Also:

X3D Scene Authoring Hints: Metadata Nodes

setMetadata

X3DChaserNode setMetadata(X3DMetadataObject newValue)

Assign X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) to inputOutput SFNode field metadata.

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DChildNode

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DFollowerNode

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the metadata field.

Returns:

X3DChaserNode - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

X3D Scene Authoring Hints: Metadata Nodes

setDEF

X3DChaserNode setDEF(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named DEF.

Note that setting the DEF value clears the USE value.

Specified by:

setDEF in interface X3DChildNode

Specified by:

setDEF in interface X3DFollowerNode

Specified by:

setDEF in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the DEF field.

Returns:

X3DChaserNode - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setUSE

X3DChaserNode setUSE(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named USE.

Note: each USE node is still an independent object, with the USE value matching the DEF value in the preceding object.

Warning: invoking the setUSE() method on this node resets all other fields to their default values (except for containerField) and also releases all child nodes.

Warning: no other operations can be performed to modify a USE node other than setting an alternate containerField value.

Specified by:

setUSE in interface X3DChildNode

Specified by:

setUSE in interface X3DFollowerNode

Specified by:

setUSE in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the USE field.

Returns:

X3DChaserNode - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setCssClass

X3DChaserNode setCssClass(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named class.

Specified by:

setCssClass in interface X3DChildNode

Specified by:

setCssClass in interface X3DFollowerNode

Specified by:

setCssClass in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the class field.

Returns:

X3DChaserNode - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).
