Re: [JAVA3D] ClassCastException for BoundingBox

[Raghavendra R]

Hi,

Thanks for the info. Does this mean that usage of typecasting BoundingBox/BoundingSphere on J3D 1.1.3 was not leading to correct results or is it just a typecast error?

Raghav,

But what you can do is

 BoundingSphere newBounds;
 if (bounds instanceof BoundingSphere)
     newBounds = (BooundingSphere)bgroup.getBounds()
 else
     newBounds = new BoundingSphere(bgroup.getBounds());

Raghav,
       You can't typecast BoundingSphere to BoundingBox. J3D 1.3 is
responding correct, and it's likely that we've fixed a bug in J3D 1.1.3
with J3D 1.3.

thanks,

Hi,

I am getting a java.lang.ClassCastException when i do the following
using J3D 1.3. Previously, i was using J3D 1.1.3 without any such
exceptions. Is it not possible to typecast BoundingSphere / BoundingBox?

BoundingBox bounds = new BoundingBox(pt1, pt2) ;

BranchGroup bgroup ;
bgroup.setBounds(bounds) ;

BoundingSphere newBounds = (BoundingSphere)bgroup.getBounds() ;

Thanks
Raghav
