Subject: [JAVA3D] howto get names of object from inline VRML
Hi everyone,
I've searched the archive and API, but can't seem to figure this out: I want
to get references to all named Shape nodes in a VRML file which includes
Shapes in any inlined files. My code to do this is below, and I've attached
two sample .wrl files (jlink2.wrl) is the parent file.
It seems like Scene.getNamedObjects() does not recognise named objects in
inlined files, but does recognise the name of the Inline node (as a Group).
If anyone could tell me how to get around this I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!
josh
public void showNodeNames(Scene theScene)
{
Enumeration list = theScene.getNamedObjects().keys();
// Go through the enumeration list
while (list.hasMoreElements()) {
String shapeName = (String) list.nextElement();
Node node = (Node) theScene.getNamedObjects().get(shapeName);
System.err.println(shapeName + " is a " + node.getClass());
}
// extra test for the included files... look for "joint2" which is in
jlink3.wrl
if (theScene.getNamedObjects().get("joint2") == null)
System.out.println("joint2 not found!");
else
System.out.println("joint 2 found");
}
When I try this with jlink2.wrl, joint2 is not found. With jlink3.wrl, it is
found.
