public interface X3DVertexAttributeNode
extends X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Base type for all nodes that specify per-vertex attribute information to the shader.

Warning: this is an abstract interface that cannot be instantiated as a concrete object. Java programmers typically only need to use concrete objects provided by the org.web3d.x3d.jsail classes.
Package hint: This interface is defined by the X3D Java Language Binding Specification for the Scene Authoring Interface (SAI).

Method Details

getMetadata

X3DMetadataObject getMetadata()

Provide org.web3d.x3d.sai.Core.X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) from inputOutput SFNode field metadata.

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Specified by:

getMetadata in interface X3DNode

Returns:

value of metadata field

• X3D Scene Authoring Hints: Metadata Nodes

setMetadata

X3DVertexAttributeNode setMetadata(X3DMetadataObject newValue)

Accessor method to assign org.web3d.x3d.sai.Core.X3DMetadataObject instance (using a properly typed node) to inputOutput SFNode field metadata.

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DGeometricPropertyNode

Specified by:

setMetadata in interface X3DNode

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the metadata field.

Returns:

X3DVertexAttributeNode - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

getName

String getName()

Provide String value from initializeOnly xs:NMTOKEN field named name.

Returns:

value of name field

setName

X3DVertexAttributeNode setName(String newValue)

Accessor method to assign String value to initializeOnly xs:NMTOKEN field named name.

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the name field.

Returns:

X3DVertexAttributeNode - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).
