## com.sun.j3d.utils.geometry
Class Stripifier

    java.lang.Object
      com.sun.j3d.utils.geometry.Stripifier

    public class Stripifier

extends java.lang.Object

The Stripifier utility will change the primitive of the GeometryInfo object to Triangle Strips. The strips are made by analyzing the triangles in the original data and connecting them together.

Normal Generation should be performed on the GeometryInfo object before Stripification, for best results. Example:

       GeometryInfo gi = new GeometryInfo(TRIANGLE_ARRAY);
       gi.setCoordinates(coordinateData);

       NormalGenerator ng = new NormalGenerator();
       ng.generateNormals(gi);

       Stripifier st = new Stripifier()
       st.stripify(gi);

       Shape3D part = new Shape3D();
       part.setAppearance(appearance);
       part.setGeometry(gi.getGeometryArray());

Field Summary
`static int` | `COLLECT_STATS` Indicates to the stripifier to collect statistics on the data

Constructor Summary
`Stripifier()` Creates the Stripifier object.
`Stripifier(int flags)` Creates the Stripifier object.

Method Summary
`StripifierStats` | `getStripifierStats()` Returns the stripifier stats object.
`void` | `stripify(GeometryInfo gi)` Converts the geometry contained in the GeometryInfo object into an array of triangle strips.
