public class Cylinder
extends Primitive

Cylinder is a geometry primitive defined with a radius and a height. It is a capped cylinder centered at the origin with its central axis aligned along the Y-axis.

When a texture is applied to a cylinder, the texture is applied to the caps and the body different. A texture is mapped CCW from the back of the body. The top and bottom caps are mapped such that the texture appears front facing when the caps are rotated 90 degrees toward the viewer.

Field Summary

          Designates the body of the cylinder.
static int BOTTOM
          Designates the bottom end-cap of the cylinder.
static int TOP

See Also:
getShape(int)

TOP

public static final int TOP
Designates the top end-cap of the cylinder. Used by getShape.
See Also:
getShape(int)

Constructor Detail

Cylinder

public Cylinder()
Constructs a default cylinder of radius of 1.0 and height of 2.0. Resolution defaults to 15 divisions along X axis and 1 along the Y axis.

Cylinder

public Cylinder(float radius,
                float height)
Constructs a default cylinder of a given radius and height.
Parameters:
radius - Radius
height - Height

Cylinder

public Cylinder(float radius,
                float height,
                Appearance ap)
Constructs a default cylinder of a given radius, height, and appearance.
Parameters:
radius - Radius
height - Height
ap - Appearance

Cylinder

public Cylinder(float radius,
                float height,
                int primflags,
                Appearance ap)
Constructs a default cylinder of a given radius, height, primitive flags and appearance.
Parameters:
radius - Radius
height - Height
primflags - Flags
ap - Appearance

Cylinder

public Cylinder(float radius,
                float height,
                int primflags,
                int xdivision,
                int ydivision,
                Appearance ap)
Constructs a customized cylinder of a given radius, height, resolution (X and Y dimensions), and appearance. The resolution is defined in terms of number of subdivisions along the object's X axis (width) and Y axis (height). More divisions lead to more finely tesselated objects.
Parameters:
radius - Radius
height - Height
xdivision - Number of divisions along X direction.
ydivision - Number of divisions along height of cylinder.
primflags - Primitive flags.
ap - Appearance
Method Detail

getShape

public Shape3D getShape(int partId)
Obtains the Shape3D node associated with a given part of the cylinder. This allows users to modify the appearance or geometry of individual parts.
Overrides:
getShape in class Primitive
Parameters:
partId - The part to return (BODY, TOP, or BOTTOM).
Returns:
The Shape3D object associated with the partID. If an invalid partId is passed in, null is returned.

setAppearance

public void setAppearance(Appearance ap)
Sets appearance of the cylinder. This will set each part of the cylinder (TOP,BOTTOM,BODY) to the same appearance. To set each part's appearance separately, use getShape(partId) to get the individual shape and call shape.setAppearance(ap).
Overrides:
setAppearance in class Primitive

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. cloneNode should be overridden by any user subclassed objects. All subclasses must have their cloneNode method consist of the following lines: 

     public Node cloneNode(boolean forceDuplicate) {
         UserSubClass usc = new UserSubClass();
         usc.duplicateNode(this, forceDuplicate);
         return usc;
     }
Overrides:
cloneNode in class Group
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.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.
See Also:
Node.cloneTree(), Node.cloneNode(boolean), NodeComponent.setDuplicateOnCloneTree(boolean)
