Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
X3DProgrammableShaderObject	setCssClass(java.lang.String newValue) Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named class.
X3DProgrammableShaderObject	setDEF(java.lang.String newValue) Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named DEF.
X3DProgrammableShaderObject	setUSE(java.lang.String newValue) Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named USE.

Method Detail

setDEF

X3DProgrammableShaderObject setDEF(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named DEF.

Note that setting the DEF value clears the USE value.

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the DEF field.

Returns:

X3DProgrammableShaderObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setUSE

X3DProgrammableShaderObject 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.

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the USE field.

Returns:

X3DProgrammableShaderObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setCssClass

X3DProgrammableShaderObject setCssClass(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named class.

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the class field.

Returns:

X3DProgrammableShaderObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).
