JVerge Bugs List

Beta 4

• DEF/USE in the script node under SF/MFNodes seems to be broken. The nodes just print out using th normal DEF name. This behaviour is only in the printout, it does not effect the executable code, which functions correctly.

• Cloning of Arrays and Exception Catching. Seems there is a difference in what some compilers treat as errors and others ignore. The code is originally compiled with Java 1.1.0 and never complained about this. Numerous reports (particularly the SGI compiler) that this complains. Trie recompiling again with JDK 1.1.4 and it too complains.

• Material Node, all versions. Typo in the writeToStream method. Writes the node type with a lowercase "m"

• Cloning of child nodes (all SFNode fields). No checks for null nodes when attempting to clone nodes which causes a crash with NullPointerException.

• CylinderSensor - all versions: offset field comes from derived class GeometrySensor and is a float. The specification has this defined as an SFFloat.

• FontStyle - constructor with everything supplied. Cosmo 2.0b1 complaining. Strings not being quoted before passing to the createVrmlFromString call. MFString arrays not catered for either.

  Print out of some fields work, others don't due to inconsistent checks.

• ElevationGrid - all versions: Did not print out field names for color, normal and texCoord before printing nodes. Default values of spacing set to 0 when it should have been 1.0

• MFVec2f/3F printout. If default value is a non-empty array and the value passed is either empty or null, then it will not print out the empty field value.

• ImageTexture - all versions: No checks for default url value leading to empty brackets being printed at all times.

• Normal - all versions: Printed out field name vector as word indent_string

  name of cleanup() method had typo.

• NavigationInfo - all versions: Incorrect default values for type field

• Traverser - Could not display handle having NULL node definitions.

• FieldDefinition/Script class incorrectly printed out the VRML NULL node handling causing exceptions

Previous Corrected Bugs

• Inline class in the external package had the no Browser constructor which took the bounding box parameters commented out. To fix, take out the comments, remove the line

  Browser b = Browser.getBrowser();

  and change the two references to b to browser.

• Viewpoint classes from all packages are missing a get_description method. This returns the currently set description string.

• LOD - all versions: Insists on writing out the center field. Extra checks added to prevent writing out of default case

• Switch - all versions: decided to loose its closing bracket :(

• WorldInfo - all versions: Breaks something when trying to writeToStream dependent on the values being passed in. Due to not escaping quote marks on the strings, and a couple of other minor problems.

• WorldInfo - generic: Not putting quotes on the title field string

• Billboard - all versions: bboxCenter is printing out when default

• Transform - all versions: Printing out scale value on default

• Collision - all versions: node proxy children handling methods only take a single node where they should be like the rest of the grouping nodes and use ChildrenNode arrays.

• Transform - internal and external versions: A cut and paste bug in set_rotation The code has _set_center.setValue() and should be changed to _set_rotation.setValue()

• FontStyle - Generic: node has a line

  have_browser = true;

  in the constructor. This needs to be removed.

• FontStyle - all versions: non-default node Constructor has the family and justify parameters as a single String where they should be an array of Strings.

• Background - all versions: Missing set/get_skyAngle methods

• Background - all versions: not printing out sky/ground Angles and sky/ground colours

• Fog - all versions: typo in the name of set_visibilityRange. Missing the 'i' between the 'b' and 'l'.

• NavigationInfo - all versions: Writing out of avatarSize field when default value. due to the incorrect check of the values. The lat check should be for 0.75f not 0.72f

• NavigationInfo - all versions: Quote marks missing around the values of the type field.

• Coordinate, Color, Normal, TextureCoordinate -all versions: Nodes are not correctly printing out the values due to not using second dimension of array.

• Sound - all versions: Printed out location even when default due to an incorrect comparison. (Would look for location as 0, 0, 1 )

• Sound - all versions: Missing closing brackets on node

• AudioClip - all versions: Missing closing brackets on node

• TextureTransform - all versions: Scale value is compared to wrong default of 0, 0 resulting in it being incorrectly printed out on default nodes.

• PlaneSensor - all versions: offset is incorrectly compared to 0, 1, 0 when determining when to be printed out result in incorrect output.

• SphereSensor - all versions: Overriding local variables in the derived class which should not have been. Leads to NullPointerExceptions and other spurious effects.

• Lights - All of them! : incorrect comparison of intensity to 0 rather than 1 for printing

Things to do:

Support for PROTO/EXTERNPROTO sometime post JVerge 1.0.

JVerge parser. Allows you to travel through a set of JVerge classes and have like a traverser class that allows you to add data to the node as it goes through (eg, for building an editor).

Callbacks for changing values of eventOuts.
