Constructor Detail

TCBSplinePathInterpolator

public TCBSplinePathInterpolator(Alpha alpha,
                                 TCBKeyFrame[] keys)

Deprecated. As of Java 3D version 1.3, replaced by TCBSplinePathInterpolator(Alpha, TransformGroup, TCBKeyFrame[])

TCBSplinePathInterpolator

public TCBSplinePathInterpolator(Alpha alpha,
                                 TransformGroup target,
                                 TCBKeyFrame[] keys)

Constructs a new TCBSplinePathInterpolator object that interpolates between keyframes with specified alpha, target and default axisOfTransform set to identity. It takes at least two key frames. The first key frame's knot must have a value of 0.0 and the last knot must have a value of 1.0. An intermediate key frame with index k must have a knot value strictly greater than the knot value of a key frame with index less than k. Once this constructor has all the valid key frames it creates its own list of key fames that duplicates the first key frame at the beginning of the list and the last key frame at the end of the list.

Parameters:

alpha - the alpha object for this interpolator

target - the TransformGroup node effected by this TCBSplinePathInterpolator

keys - an array of TCBKeyFrame. Requires at least two key frames.

Since:

Java 3D 1.3

TCBSplinePathInterpolator

public TCBSplinePathInterpolator(Alpha alpha,
                                 TransformGroup target,
                                 Transform3D axisOfTransform,
                                 TCBKeyFrame[] keys)

Constructs a new TCBSplinePathInterpolator object that interpolates between keyframes with specified alpha, target and axisOfTransform. It takes at least two key frames. The first key frame's knot must have a value of 0.0 and the last knot must have a value of 1.0. An intermediate key frame with index k must have a knot value strictly greater than the knot value of a key frame with index less than k. Once this constructor has all the valid key frames it creates its own list of key fames that duplicates the first key frame at the beginning of the list and the last key frame at the end of the list.

Parameters:

alpha - the alpha object for this interpolator

target - the TransformGroup node effected by this TCBSplinePathInterpolator

axisOfTransform - the transform that defines the local coordinate

keys - an array of TCBKeyFrame. Requires at least two key frames.

Since:

Java 3D 1.3

Method Detail

getArrayLength

public int getArrayLength()

This method retrieves the length of the key frame array.

Returns:

the number of key frames

getKeyFrame

public TCBKeyFrame getKeyFrame(int index)

This method retrieves the key frame at the specified index.

Parameters:

index - the index of the key frame requested

Returns:

the key frame at the associated index

duplicateNode

public void duplicateNode(Node originalNode,
                          boolean forceDuplicate)

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

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.

Throws:

RestrictedAccessException - if this object is part of a live or compiled scenegraph.
