[x3d-public] Wed Nov 19 - X3D-AI Working Group Meeting

[GPU Group]

"a) SAI .. b) new node .. reads .. file"
x (a) would stall the rendering thread
* (b) can load file asynchronously in a separate thread and notify with
event out when loaded
option 1
FileLoader {
inputOutput MFString url NULL
OutputOnly SFImage BLOB
}
option 2
FileLoader {
inputOutput MFString NULL
inputOutput SFBool load true
inputOutput SFBool loaded
inputOutput SFImage BLOB
}
