Class ShaderAppearance

  • public class ShaderAppearance
extends Appearance

    The ShaderAppearance object defines programmable shading attributes that can be set as a component object of a Shape3D node. The ShaderAppearance rendering state adds the following attributes in addition to those defined by Appearance:

    • Shader program - specifies the shader program...

    • Shader attribute set - specifies the shader parameters, both as explicit attributes and as implicit bindings to Java 3D state...

    The ShaderAppearance object modifies the definition of some of the attributes in Appearance:

    • Coloring attributes - XXXXX

    • Line attributes - XXXXX

    • Point attributes - XXXXX

    • Polygon attributes - XXXXX

    • Rendering attributes - XXXXX

    • Transparency attributes - XXXXX

    • Material - XXXXX

    • Texture - XXXXX

    • Texture attributes - XXXXX

    • Texture coordinate generation - XXXXX

    • Texture unit state - XXXXX

      • setShaderProgram

        public void setShaderProgram​(ShaderProgram shaderProgram)
        Sets the ShaderProgram object to the specified object. Setting it to null causes a default pass-through shader to be used ???
        Parameters:
        shaderProgram - object that specifies the desired shader program
        Throws:
        CapabilityNotSetException - if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph

      • getShaderProgram

        public ShaderProgram getShaderProgram()
        Retrieves the current ShaderProgram object.
        Returns:
        the ShaderProgram object
        Throws:
        CapabilityNotSetException - if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph

      • setShaderAttributeSet

        public void setShaderAttributeSet​(ShaderAttributeSet shaderAttributeSet)
        Sets the ShaderAttributeSet object to the specified object. Setting it to null is equivalent to specifying an empty set of attributes.
        Parameters:
        shaderAttributeSet - object that specifies the desired shader attributes
        Throws:
        CapabilityNotSetException - if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph

      • getShaderAttributeSet

        public ShaderAttributeSet getShaderAttributeSet()
        Retrieves the current ShaderAttributeSet object.
        Returns:
        the ShaderAttributeSet object
        Throws:
        CapabilityNotSetException - if appropriate capability is not set and this object is part of live or compiled scene graph

      • duplicateNodeComponent

        public void duplicateNodeComponent​(NodeComponent originalNodeComponent)
        Deprecated.
        replaced with duplicateNodeComponent( NodeComponent originalNodeComponent, boolean forceDuplicate)
        NOTE: Applications should not call this method directly. It should only be called by the cloneNode method.
        Overrides:
        duplicateNodeComponent in class Appearance
