By any chance, you're not using the MainFrame class that was tacked onto Java3D
somewhere in com.sun, are you? I don't know about the 1.2 release, but in J3D
1.1.3, I remember needing that function for something, and after puzzling for
hours why it wouldn't work on the web if I added a call to getCodeBase(),
opening the source and noticing the phrase we all love to hate, "Hack", written
at the header of this function. It seems that the only thing this function does
is search through your current classpath in a vain attempt (for web usage,
anyway) to hunt down your location.
Not that I use MainFrame anymore (it was my first real J3D project), but does
anyone know if this problem was corrected in J3D 1.2?
