Sorry that Section 6.3 isn't more clear. reala is declared
as a RealType but not constructed as one in the code 'fragment'
in 6.3. So reala is null in the FunctionType constructor and
that causes the Exception.
Please add:
reala = new RealType("reala");
realb = new RealType("realb");
realc = new RealType("realc");
at the start of your reader2() method.
Also, your ScalarMaps are all for 'reala'. Please change them to:
display1.addMap(new ScalarMap(reala, Display.XAxis));
display1.addMap(new ScalarMap(realb, Display.YAxis));
display1.addMap(new ScalarMap(realc, Display.ZAxis));
To experiment with this collaboration logic, you might
be better off starting with Test14.java and Test15.java
in the visad/examples directory. Also, I think Dave
Glowacki will release his collaboration tutorial next
week that will include soem nice examples to start from.
Cheers,
Bill
