Hi Peter,
Try including the Java3D.jar file explicitly on your classpath. If I recall
correctly, you can't assume that the BeanShell knows about JKK 1.2.2's
default classpaths. I think some time ago I had to get the BeanShell's
author to update the BeanShell to deal with JDK 1.2.x's implicit inclusion
of rt.jar. I doubt that he did anything about extensions.
Anyway, this is a wild guess, but I think it's worth a try.
