Re: [JAVA3D] memory leak in VRML loader

2000-08-22 Thread J Myron Smith
I've had trouble detaching scene geometry when I've used the VRML loader to load it. This usually happens when the scene geometry is more complex. What happens is a null pointer exception as the detach causes the geometry nodes attempt to release their respective references. Hence most of the time

I agree that overlays are very useful but more difficult than they perhaps should be to implement in Java 3D (along with several other UI functionality). If you are an overlay afficianado then the ideal solution would be to simply designate an object as only being displayable in overlay through t

[JAVA3D] Canvas3D not being garbage collected.

[JAVA3D] VRML97 problem

Hi! I have a big problem with the package (com.sun.j3d.loaders.*) that can browse the VRML97 models. I made a little application to browse the models (wrl) and now I really need to have the structures of models (the vector with points, the vector with index). The wrl model is loaded somewhere but

Sorry I don't know. You know what you "could do" and that is to design and create your face using splines in a package like 3D Studio or Lightwave and then save as a format that lists the vertices in a readable format. Then you could do as I described earlier. ^ Allistair D Cr

I had a friend who did a face rendering project in Java3D. He used some standard face file format that defined a load of vertices for the face polygons. He read them into a GeometryArray or somthing and stripified them. It looked pretty good but did not use splines. You could make sure the polygon
