A Java2D display option is currently under construction. It should provide more efficient 2-D graphics (e.g., images, simple plots, contour lines) on machines without hardware 3-D, compared with using the current TwoDDisplayRendererJ3D under visad/java3d. The code is part of the distribution now, just as the VisAD source was available on the web (if you knew where to look) for more than a year before it was ready to release. At least the 'make compile' option does not try to compile visad/java2d, which as you note won't compile. The presence of visad/java2d source will not interfere with using VisAD. None of the examples rely on Java2D yet. ---------------------------------------------------------- Bill Hibbard, SSEC, 1225 W.
