  +--VolumeJ.VJLight

public class VJLight

extends java.lang.Object

This class implements a volume rendering light, and adds to methods to manipulate the light. Use objectify to transform the light position into another coordinate system (for example, the same coordinate system as the gradient, usually object space). Currently only monochrome lightsare supported. Copyright (c) 2001-2002, Michael Abramoff. All rights reserved.

Constructor Detail

VJLight

public VJLight(float x,
               float y,
               float z,
               float diffuse,
               float specular)

Create a new light. The light comes from x, y, z.

Parameters:

x - the x-position of the light (usually in viewspace).

y - the y-position of the light (usually in viewspace).

z - the z-position of the light (usually in viewspace).

diffuse - the amount of light diffuse reflection cast by this light.

specular - the amount of specular reflection cast by this light.

Method Detail

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

toLongString

public java.lang.String toLongString()

objectify

public void objectify(VJMatrix m)

Transform the position of this light into another coordinate system. Usually from viewspace to objectspace.

Parameters:

m - the transformation matrix.
