Interface X3DChaserNode

All Superinterfaces:

X3DChildNode, X3DFollowerNode, X3DNode

All Known Subinterfaces:

ColorChaser, CoordinateChaser, OrientationChaser, PositionChaser, PositionChaser2D, ScalarChaser, TexCoordChaser2D

All Known Implementing Classes:

ColorChaser, CoordinateChaser, OrientationChaser, PositionChaser, PositionChaser2D, ScalarChaser, TexCoordChaser2D

public interface X3DChaserNode
extends X3DFollowerNode

The X3DChaserNode abstract node type calculates the output on value_changed as a finite impulse response (FIR) based on the events received on set_destination field.

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).

Method Details

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)

Accessor method to assign double value in seconds 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 org.web3d.x3d.sai.Core.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

setMetadata

X3DChaserNode setMetadata(X3DMetadataObject newValue)

Accessor method to assign org.web3d.x3d.sai.Core.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).
