[x3d-public] [x3dom-developers] Prototype

[Don Brutzman]

Oops, mis-ordered paragraphs from a cut/paste.  Correction:

==================================
A really big boost is that the tool suite making up the X3D Validator finds problems in content.  So far it detects and reports each possible pathology I've detected in (ProtoInstance fieldValue ExternProtoDeclare ProtoDeclare Script field IS connect) constructs... with one exception: what about if field definitions in an ExternProtoDeclare don't match the original ProtoDeclare?

X3D-Edit handles that case for authors, providing a button to (1) test and (2) correct for mismatched ExternProtoDeclare field signatures.

If anyone has any X3D test-case example scene that doesn't seem to work, please post it.  If there is a hole in the test suite I'll reply "thank you very much!" and add another X3D Validator warning to cover it.  If there is indeed a hole in the X3D specification then several people will say "thank you very much!" and we'll fix that.
==================================

all the best, Don
