Class EarthView

java.lang.Object

earthproj.EarthView

public final class EarthView
extends java.lang.Object

The purpose is to: 1) Build the Swing containers (JFrame, JPanel, etc.) and then build the WorldWind Earth model and load into one of the JPanel containers. 2) Configure the use-specified Earth model layers - such as UTM grid, atmosphere, etc. 3) Run a simulation in which the trajectory and radar objects are activated.

Constructor Detail

EarthView

public EarthView(ScenarioSettings ss)

The ScenarioSettings object is passed to the constructor when the EarthView object is first built in the "main", EarthProj. The WorldWind Earth model is built and set up here in the constructor.

Parameters:

ss - The ScenarioSettings object which carries all of the parameters required by the EarthView object.

Method Detail

trajSim

public void trajSim()

The purpose is to simulate a trajectory with the loaded arrays of TrajectoryObjects and RadarObjects objects. Once the last TrajectoryObjects object indicates that it's not active anymore, the simulation while-loop will cease.

checkIfAnyTrue

public boolean checkIfAnyTrue(boolean[] queue)

The purpose is to cycle through the boolean array and see if any of the elements are "true" - if so then return a value of "true". This method is called by the trajSim method.

Parameters:

queue - The array of boolean values that need to be checked to assess if any of them have a value of "true".

Returns:

A boolean value of "true" if any of the booleans in the array are "true", and "false" if none of the booleans in the array are "true".

configureEarthLayers

public void configureEarthLayers()

The purpose is to load the user-specified Earth layers (e.g. atmosphere, stars, etc.) into the WorldWind Earth model.
