Release announcement: lots of improvements checked in and deployed tonight.

	X3D Java Scene Access Interface Library (X3DJSAIL) supports programmers with
	standards-based X3D Java interfaces and objects, all as open source.

	http://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.html

========================================================================

1. X3D Example Archives testing and X3DJSAIL improvements.

Added X3DJSAIL CommandLine -toJava switch.

Great suggestion to focus on serious testing to shake out the DOM loader.

Figured out a new Ant build.xml task that invokes X3DJSAIL CommandLine class to -validate all .java translations in each archive.

Fixed a number of Prototype problems, most of which resulted when we said ProtoInstance USE nodes no longer include a name attribute.  A few warnings remain but most appear to be fixed.  Diagnostic testing and improvements continue.

Best part of -validate testing is that it really exercises the expected majority of all DOM-based X3DLoader tests.  Made a number of valuable fixes.  Added design pattern to handle setting ProtoInstance as an SFNode field.  Will need another pattern for handling addition of a single ProtoInstance to an MFNode field (other than X3DGroupingNode and similar children), which are rare but important cases.

John: I think that you will find a number of your prior problem cases are fixed now.

========================================================================

2.  X3dToJava.xslt stylesheet (converts .x3d model to X3DJSAIL .java code)

a. Improved self-validation diagnostics output.

b. Lots of work trying to get past the 64K method limit in compiled Java for very-large CAD and scan scenes.  Limited success, but the autogenerated code is highly modularized for large arrays and likely provides more coverage now.  Minor tuning on split values may continue.  Links and snippet follow.

3. More to follow.

John your examples were very helpful and focused me on several key problems that needed remedying.  A lot is fixed, more is needed.

Better and better...  I will stick with the organized review of DOM-based X3DLoader.java to try to achieve thoroughness, probably next weekend.

As requested, I added an ant build.xml task "get.X3DJSAIL.update" which allows end users to update the copy of X3DJSAIL contained within each of the X3D Example Archives.  Console excerpt:

get.X3DJSAIL.update:
get latest X3DJSAIL update from http://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.html
Getting: http://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/jars/X3DJSAIL.3.3.full.jar
To: E:\x3d-code\www.web3d.org\x3d\content\examples\X3dForAdvancedModeling\lib\X3DJSAIL.3.3.full.jar
................
Download complete, lib/X3DJSAIL.3.3.full.jar size 30355885 bytes
BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 1 minute 54 seconds)

In general I keep library updates as a feature deliberately triggered by developers, and not automatic, since such libaries get tested with the content that gets deployed and we don't want to break local-user content when future changes occur.

Have fun with X3D and Java!  8)
