Dear all: i thank you for your advise, but the thing is that , i have a java3D applet which makes multiple displays. if one display is currently showing and i try to replace it with another new display, i get an error like "compiled/live object, cannot change capability bits for PickTool", so i am trying to clean the current display(i.e, the branchgroup and all its children) and free all the memory or if possible , terminate the virtual machine before calling the second display. even if i try to span a new browser after clicking a button in the old browser, it still shows the same error. I am thinking which is the best way to do this.
i will appreciate any ideas, thnaks, Isaac -----Original Message----- From: Justin Couch To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 1/17/03 3:12 AM Subject: Re: [JAVA3D] System.exit(0) Brobbey,Isaac (neuron) wrote: > so i want to terminate the current session of the java3D before loading > another one.when i put an explicit call of System.exit(0) in the applet > program, i get an "accessControlException". do i need a special permission > from the runtime system to terminate the current session ? Note that even if you did manage to call this, it's not going to achieve the result you want. System.exit(0) will cause the entire browser to shut down. I think you need to do a little more reading up on how applets function to determine the correct answer.
