How come this simple model does not work? I keep getting an ugly exception below. Funny thing is, if I replace the url="flaresmall.jpg" with url='"flaresmall.jpg"' is parses but nothing shows up on the sphere. What am I doing wrong?
This may be a bug in our handling. We'd come across this a couple of times before and each time I make a change and think I've fixed it, only to have it pop up somewhere else. The old whack-a-mole issue :(
The real issue is one to do with the way the spec works and to which I have voiced many a strenous objection to the spec authors about. The definition of MFStrings in the XML encoding is different to that of the VRML encoding. That means we need to know specifically which file format the field definitions came from when we're parsing them. That's very bad specification design in my book and one of the issues I really dislike about the XML encoding. -- Justin Couch http://www.vlc.com.au/~justin/ Java Architect & Bit Twiddler http://www.yumetech.com/ Author, Java 3D FAQ Maintainer http://www.j3d.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------- "Humanism is dead.
