I did some nosing around looking at the Java3D library with the thought of
doing a LEGO CAD application.  It looks like it might be very easy to teach
Java3D to render dat/ldr files.

  They seem to have some sort of built in file reading mechanism that needs to
be taught file formats.  I don't remember all of the details but it looked
promising.

  The Java3D API seems to be reaching a fair level of maturity.  They are
producing versions customized to use hardware acceleration.

  Java 2 would allow a tool to be used on Mac OS X, Windows, Linux and Solaris.
Among others.

  Any thoughts?

Yeah, I am writing using Java myself. However, nobody who volunteered to help said they knew Java. I don't think Java3D is on Mac OS 9 either. Does anyone know? I am not even sure where to look to find out. (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Am trying to compile this, but having more than a few problems using CW-Pro-5. Anyone with experience compiling this (any vers of CW), email me and maybe we can work around the diffs between CW-Pro-5 and CW-Pro-7.2. TIA, Ray (23 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
