Re: [JAVA3D] 3D Applets on the web

I thought I was the only one "not-getting-it", and so was ashamed to ask myself. Thanx Dirk. "Dirk L. van Krimpen" wrote:  Hi all, Some 4, 5 months ago there were lots of discussions in the J3D interest group concerning 3D applets on the web. Especially the use of the HTML converter, the 3D plug-in or possibly WebStart were hot items. In general it seemed to be quite difficult to deploy 3D applets on the web. I understood that the so-called Java 3D auto-install environment would be a solution. That one would be easier, better and more simply to use then the description on auto installment at that time on j3d.org. In his message of April 10, 2002 Doug Twilleager states: "Java 3D is ready to be deployed in an auto-install environment. It is being worked on within the JDK groups.....". At that time I got the impression that the delivery date would be approximately September 2002. I was away from the interest group for a couple of months so I may have missed something. However, my applets are still eagerly waiting to show themselves on the web. Could somebody say something about the status of the new 3D auto installer? Thanks in advance. Dirk van KrimpenFreeForm InternationalNetherlands   -- ------------------------------------------------- Asaf Dafner        Short -but- Deep, Mainly Deep.
