[Jmol-developers] jvxl parsing

[Sam B. <sb...@gm...>]

Thanks for the help! Sorry I had not posted in the right mailing list.  So
in order to read a jvxl file you need to perform the marching cubes
algorithm?  I thought it was just for the creation of the file.  In that
case, I am going to try and create a command line program that uses your
code and takes a jvxl filename as input and then writes polygon data as
output.  So, I guess my hang up now is what is the main function that is
called to open a jvxl file?  I am looking at JvxlReader and its inherited
classes VolumeFileReader, SurfaceFileReader, etc and trying to figure out
what needs to be called to reach the final MeshData where I believe the
vertices and polygon indices are found.  Is it just a matter of initialized
a JvxlReader and letting the constructor keep calling super() constructors
until the process finishes or do I need to call something else after the
JvxlReader has been initialized? Thanks for all the help!
