java.lang.Object
  extended by com.sun.j3d.utils.geometry.compression.CompressedGeometryData.Header
Enclosing class:
CompressedGeometryData

public static class CompressedGeometryData.Header
extends java.lang.Object

The Header class is a data container for the header information, used in conjunction with a CompressedGeometryData object. This information is used to aid the decompression of the compressed geometry.

All instance data is declared public and no get or set methods are provided.

majorVersionNumber

public int majorVersionNumber
The major version number for the compressed geometry format that was used to compress the geometry. If the version number of compressed geometry is incompatible with the supported version of compressed geometry in the current version of Java 3D, the compressed geometry obejct will not be rendered.

See Also:
Canvas3D#queryProperties

minorVersionNumber

public int minorVersionNumber
The minor version number for the compressed geometry format that was used to compress the geometry. If the version number of compressed geometry is incompatible with the supported version of compressed geometry in the current version of Java 3D, the compressed geometry obejct will not be rendered.

See Also:
Canvas3D#queryProperties

minorMinorVersionNumber

public int minorMinorVersionNumber
The minor-minor version number for the compressed geometry format that was used to compress the geometry. If the version number of compressed geometry is incompatible with the supported version of compressed geometry in the current version of Java 3D, the compressed geometry obejct will not be rendered.

See Also:
Canvas3D#queryProperties

bufferType

public int bufferType
Describes the type of data in the compressed geometry buffer. Only one type may be present in any given compressed geometry buffer.


bufferDataPresent

public int bufferDataPresent
Contains bits indicating what data is bundled with the vertices in the compressed geometry buffer. If this data is not present (e.g. color) then this info will be inherited from the Appearance node.


size

public int size
Size of the compressed geometry in bytes.


start

public int start
Offset in bytes of the start of the compressed geometry from the beginning of the compressed geometry byte array passed to the CompressedGeometryData constructor.

If the CompressedGeometryData is created with reference access semantics, then this allow external compressors or file readers to embed several blocks of compressed geometry in a single large byte array, possibly interspersed with metadata that is not specific to Java 3D, without having to copy each block to a separate byte array.

If the CompressedGeometryData is created with copy access semantics, then size bytes of compressed geometry data are copied from the offset indicated by start instead of copying the entire byte array. The getCompressedGeometry() method will return only the bytes used to construct the object, and the getCompressedGeometryHeader() method will return a header with the start field set to 0.


lowerBound

public Point3d lowerBound
A point that defines the lower bound of the x, y, and z components for all positions in the compressed geometry buffer. If null, a lower bound of (-1,-1,-1) is assumed. Java 3D will use this information to construct a bounding box around compressed geometry objects that are used in nodes for which the auto compute bounds flag is true. The default value for this point is null.


upperBound

public Point3d upperBound
A point that defines the upper bound of the x, y, and z components for all positions in the compressed geometry buffer. If null, an upper bound of (1,1,1) is assumed. Java 3D will use this information to construct a bounding box around compressed geometry objects that are used in nodes for which the auto compute bounds flag is true. The default value for this point is null.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
