All Implemented Interfaces:
Shape , Cloneable
Direct Known Subclasses:
Line2D.Double , Line2D.Float 
public abstract class Line2D
extends Object
implements Shape, Cloneable

This Line2D represents a line segment in (x,y) (x, y) coordinate space. This class, like all of the Java 2D API, uses a default coordinate system called user space in which the y-axis values increase downward and x-axis values increase to the right. For more information on the user space coordinate system, see the Coordinate Systems section of the Java 2D Programmer's Guide.

This class is only the abstract superclass for all objects that store a 2D line segment. The actual storage representation of the coordinates is left to the subclass.

Since:
1.2

A return value of 0 indicates that the point lies exactly on the line segment. Note that an indicator value of 0 is rare and not useful for determining colinearity because of floating point rounding issues.

If the point is colinear with the line segment, but not between the end points, endpoints, then the value will be -1 if the point lies "beyond (x1,y1)" (X1, Y1)" or 1 if the point lies "beyond (x2,y2)". (X2, Y2)".

y - the Y coordinate of the upper-left corner of the specified rectangular area
w - the width of the specified rectangular area
h - the height of the specified rectangular area
Returns:
true if the interior of the Shape and the interior of the rectangular area intersect, or are both highly likely to intersect and intersection calculations would be too expensive to perform; false otherwise. true if this Line2D intersects the interior of the specified set of rectangular coordinates; false otherwise.

intersects


public boolean intersects(Rectangle2D r)
Tests if the interior of the Shape intersects the interior of a specified Rectangle2D. The Shape.intersects() method allows a Shape implementation to conservatively return true when: This means that for some Shapes this method might return true even though the Rectangle2D does not intersect the Shape. The Area class performs more accurate computations of geometric intersection than most Shape objects and therefore can be used if a more precise answer is required. Tests if this Line2D intersects the interior of a specified Rectangle2D.

Specified by:
intersects in interface Shape
Parameters:
r - the specified Rectangle2D to be tested
Returns:
true if the interior of the Shape and the interior of the specified Rectangle2D intersect, or are both highly likely to intersect and intersection calculations would be too expensive to perform; false otherwise. true if this Line2D intersects the interior of the specified Rectangle2D; false otherwise.

contains


public boolean contains(double x,
                        double y,
                        double w,
                        double h)
Tests if the interior of this Line2D entirely contains the specified set of rectangular coordinates. This method is required to implement the Shape interface, but in the case of Line2D objects it always returns false since a line contains no area.

Specified by:
contains in interface Shape
Parameters:
x x, y - the X coordinate coordinates of the upper-left top-left corner of the specified rectangular area
y - the Y coordinate of the upper-left corner of the specified rectangular area
w - the width of the specified rectangular area
h - the height of the specified rectangular area
Returns:
false because a Line2D contains no area.

contains


public boolean contains(Rectangle2D r)
Tests if the interior of this Line2D entirely contains the specified Rectangle2D. This method is required to implement the Shape interface, but in the case of Line2D objects it always returns false since a line contains no area.

Specified by:
contains in interface Shape
Parameters:
r - the specified Rectangle2D to be tested
Returns:
false because a Line2D contains no area.

getBounds


public Rectangle getBounds()
Returns an integer Rectangle that completely encloses the Shape. Note that there is no guarantee that the returned Rectangle is the smallest bounding box that encloses the Shape, only that the Shape lies entirely within the indicated Rectangle. The returned Rectangle might also fail to completely enclose the Shape if the Shape overflows the limited range of the integer data type. The getBounds2D method generally returns a tighter bounding box due to its greater flexibility in representation. Returns the bounding box of this Line2D.

Specified by:
getBounds in interface Shape
Returns:
an integer Rectangle that completely encloses the Shape. a Rectangle that is the bounding box of the Line2D.

1.2

Shape.getBounds2D()

getPathIterator


public PathIterator getPathIterator(AffineTransform at)
Returns an iteration object that defines the boundary of this Line2D. The iterator for this class is not multi-threaded safe, which means that this Line2D class does not guarantee that modifications to the geometry of this Line2D object do not affect any iterations of that geometry that are already in process.

Specified by:
getPathIterator in interface Shape
Parameters:
at - the specified AffineTransform
Returns:
a PathIterator that defines the boundary of this Line2D.
Since:
1.2

getPathIterator


public PathIterator getPathIterator(AffineTransform at,
                                    double flatness)
Returns an iteration object that defines the boundary of this flattened Line2D. The iterator for this class is not multi-threaded safe, which means that this Line2D class does not guarantee that modifications to the geometry of this Line2D object do not affect any iterations of that geometry that are already in process.

Specified by:
getPathIterator in interface Shape
Parameters:
at - the specified AffineTransform
flatness - the maximum amount that the control points for a given curve can vary from colinear before a subdivided curve is replaced by a straight line connecting the end points. endpoints. Since a Line2D object is always flat, this parameter is ignored.
Returns:
a PathIterator that defines the boundary of the flattened Line2D
Since:
1.2

clone


public Object clone()
Creates a new object of the same class as this object.

Overrides:
clone in class Object
Returns:
a clone of this instance.
Throws:
OutOfMemoryError - if there is not enough memory.

1.2
