Constructor Detail

AmbientLight

public AmbientLight()

Constructs and initializes an ambient light using default parameters.

AmbientLight

public AmbientLight(Color3f color)

Constructs and initializes an ambient light using the specified parameters.

Parameters:

color - the color of the light source.

AmbientLight

public AmbientLight(boolean lightOn,
                    Color3f color)

Constructs and initializes an ambient light using the specified parameters.

Parameters:

lightOn - flag indicating whether this light is on or off.

color - the color of the light source.

Method Detail

cloneNode

public Node cloneNode(boolean forceDuplicate)

Used to create a new instance of the node. This routine is called by cloneTree to duplicate the current node.

Overrides:

cloneNode in class Node

Parameters:

forceDuplicate - when set to true, causes the duplicateOnCloneTree flag to be ignored. When false, the value of each node's duplicateOnCloneTree variable determines whether NodeComponent data is duplicated or copied.

See Also:

Node.cloneTree(), Node.cloneNode(boolean), Node.duplicateNode(javax.media.j3d.Node, boolean), NodeComponent.setDuplicateOnCloneTree(boolean)

duplicateNode

public void duplicateNode(Node originalNode,
                          boolean forceDuplicate)

Copies all node information from originalNode into the current node. This method is called from the cloneNode method which is, in turn, called by the cloneTree method.

For any NodeComponent objects contained by the object being duplicated, each NodeComponent object's duplicateOnCloneTree value is used to determine whether the NodeComponent should be duplicated in the new node or if just a reference to the current node should be placed in the new node. This flag can be overridden by setting the forceDuplicate parameter in the cloneTree method to true.

Overrides:

duplicateNode in class Node

Parameters:

originalNode - the original node to duplicate.

forceDuplicate - when set to true, causes the duplicateOnCloneTree flag to be ignored. When false, the value of each node's duplicateOnCloneTree variable determines whether NodeComponent data is duplicated or copied.
