如何在Java的“框架”面板中显示，缩放3D多维数据集？

Question

I need to be able to display a scene... :

1. Containing N cubes (with precise width, height and depth : each in the shape of "-/+[0|1|2].[0|1|...|9]+" - with seven digits after the comma : need a displaying with high-precision), with a given color (the same on all the faces of the cube)

2. I must be able to overlay a cube colored with white with another cube colored with red, of the same width, height and depth (of course, with same coordinates X, Y and Z) and the latter must hide the first without any problem of Z-fighting

3. I have coordinates X, Y and Z to place each cube in the scene

4. I must be able to rotate the entire scene (ie : each cube must rotate/move)

5. I must be able to zoom/unzoom in the scene, before or after having rotated the latter

I don't want to use OpenGL, or something else than the standard Java's API.

For the moment, I just display pixels in a 2D JFrame 's panel (with the class Graphics and the overrided paint() ). But my project makes me in need of switching with a 3D approach. I would want to just change my use of Graphics and paint() , and to keep my JFrame 's panel.

Is it possible? What class do you advice me?

Answer 1

Consider JavaFX, as shown in Getting Started with JavaFX 3D Graphics . It uses the platform's available rendering pipeline internally, as discussed in JavaFX Architecture . Several related examples are shown here . If you stay with Swing, you can embed JavaFX content using JFXPanel , seen here . In particular, you can test overlap with this example .
