This package defines several utility classes that are likely to be useful for Jazz applications.

Description

Interface Summary

ZFindFilter	ZFindFilter provides a general interface that is used to determine if a specified node should be accepted.
ZLerp	ZLerp is an interface for specifying how to interpolate a double over an interval.
ZList	Collections of objects in the Jazz framework are usual contained in ZLists, as implemented by ZListImpl.
ZList.ZBoundsList
ZList.ZCameraList
ZList.ZLayerGroupList
ZList.ZNodeList
ZList.ZPropertyList
ZList.ZSceneGraphObjectList
ZList.ZTransformableList
ZList.ZVisualComponentList
ZLoadable	ZLoadable is an interface that defines objects that can be dynamically loaded into Jazz, and be made aware of the basic scenegraph structure so that it can add itself to the application and do something useful.
ZRenderContextFactory
ZSceneGraphEditorFactory

Class Summary

ZBounds	ZBounds is simply a Rectangle2D.Double with extra methods that more properly deal with the case when the rectangle is "empty".
ZBoundsFindFilter	ZBoundsFindFilter is a filter that accepts visual and terminal nodes that overlap the specified bounds in global coordinates.
ZCanvas	ZCanvas is a simple Swing component that can be used to render onto for Jazz.
ZDebug	ZDebug provides static methods for maintaining/setting/retrieving global debugging state.
ZLayout	ZLayout is a utility class that provides general-purpose layout mechanisms to position nodes.
ZListImpl	ZListImpl Implementation of ZList.
ZListImpl.ZBoundsListImpl
ZListImpl.ZCameraListImpl
ZListImpl.ZLayerGroupListImpl
ZListImpl.ZNodeListImpl	For each type of array that we had we should have a subclass that suplies its own element data of that type.
ZListImpl.ZObjectListImpl
ZListImpl.ZPropertyListImpl
ZListImpl.ZSceneGraphObjectListImpl
ZListImpl.ZTransformableListImpl
ZListImpl.ZVisualComponentListImpl
ZMagBoundsFindFilter	ZMagBoundsFindFilter is a filter that accepts "terminal" nodes that overlap the specified bounds in global coordinates, but only if the object is within its visible magnification range.
ZNullList	This class provides a stand in for ZLists that have no elements.
ZObjectReferenceTable	ZObjectReferenceTable helps to manage the references between objects within the scenegraph when a portion of the scenegraph is duplicated with clone().
ZProperty	ZProperty represents a ZNode client property.
ZRenderContext	ZRenderContext stores information relevant to the current render as it occurs.
ZSceneGraphEditor	ZSceneGraphEditor provides a convenience mechanism used to locate and create instances of the following types of group nodes:
ZSceneGraphPath	ZSceneGraphPath represents a unique path in a scene graph from a top-level camera to a terminal node.
ZSceneGraphPropertyPanel	ZSceneGraphPropertyPanel displays a list of properties for a number of Java Bean objects, and allows the user to edit the properties.
ZSceneGraphTreeModel	ZSceneGraphTreeModel implements a TreeModel used by ZSceneGraphTreeView to implement a jazz sceneGraph browser.
ZSceneGraphTreeView	ZSceneGraphTreeView displays a tree structure representing the Jazz scene graph that is useful for debugging.
ZUtil	ZUtil provides some generic, useful routines.

Exception Summary

ZDanglingReferenceException	Thrown to indicate that a node that was being searched for in the scenegraph was not found.
ZNodeNotFoundException	ZNodeNotFoundException is an exception that is thrown to indicate that a node that was being searched for in the scenegraph was not found.
ZTooManyChildrenException	ZTooManyChildrenException is an exception that is thrown to indicate that an operation was attempted that would have resulted in a decorator node having more than one child.
