Class AudioEngineThread

java.lang.Object
  extended by java.lang.Thread
      extended by com.sun.j3d.audioengines.AudioEngineThread
All Implemented Interfaces:
java.lang.Runnable

public class AudioEngineThread
extends java.lang.Thread

The Thread Class extended for Audio Device engines that must process calls dynamically, in 'real-time" to asynchronously change engine parameters.

NOTE: this class is probably not needed for those Audio Device implementations that handle all dynamic parameters in the low-level audio library.
