Class Polygon

protected Rectangle bounds

The bounding box of this polygon. This is lazily created and cached, so it must be invalidated after changing points.

getBounds()

public int npoints

This total number of endpoints.

public int[] xpoints

The array of X coordinates of endpoints. This should not be null.

See Also:

addPoint(int,int)

public int[] ypoints

The array of Y coordinates of endpoints. This should not be null.

addPoint(int,int)

public Polygon()

Initializes an empty polygon.

public Polygon(int[] xpoints,
               int[] ypoints,
               int npoints)

Create a new polygon with the specified endpoints. The arrays are copied, so that future modifications to the parameters do not affect the polygon.

Parameters:

xpoints - the array of X coordinates for this polygon

ypoints - the array of Y coordinates for this polygon

npoints - the total number of endpoints in this polygon

Throws:

NegativeArraySizeException - if npoints is negative

IndexOutOfBoundsException - if npoints exceeds either array

NullPointerException - if xpoints or ypoints is null

public void addPoint(int x,
                     int y)

Adds the specified endpoint to the polygon. This updates the bounding box, if it has been created.

Parameters:

x - the X coordinate of the point to add

y - the Y coordiante of the point to add

public boolean contains(Rectangle2D r)

Test if a high-precision rectangle lies completely in the shape. This is true if all points in the rectangle are in the shape. This implementation is precise.

contains in interface Shape

Parameters:

r - the rectangle

Returns:

true if the rectangle is contained in this shape

public Rectangle getBoundingBox()

Deprecated. use getBounds() instead

Returns the bounding box of this polygon. This is the smallest rectangle with sides parallel to the X axis that will contain this polygon.

Returns:

the bounding box for this polygon

See Also:

getBounds2D()

public Rectangle getBounds()

Returns the bounding box of this polygon. This is the smallest rectangle with sides parallel to the X axis that will contain this polygon.

Specified by:

getBounds in interface Shape

Returns:

the bounding box for this polygon

Since:

1.1

See Also:

getBounds2D()

public Rectangle2D getBounds2D()

Returns a high-precision bounding box of this polygon. This is the smallest rectangle with sides parallel to the X axis that will contain this polygon.

Specified by:

getBounds2D in interface Shape

Returns:

the bounding box for this polygon

Since:

1.2

public PathIterator getPathIterator(AffineTransform transform)

Return an iterator along the shape boundary. If the optional transform is provided, the iterator is transformed accordingly. Each call returns a new object, independent from others in use. This class is not threadsafe to begin with, so the path iterator is not either.

Specified by:

getPathIterator in interface Shape

Parameters:

transform - an optional transform to apply to the iterator

Returns:

a new iterator over the boundary

Since:

1.2

public PathIterator getPathIterator(AffineTransform transform,
                                    double flatness)

Return an iterator along the flattened version of the shape boundary. Since polygons are already flat, the flatness parameter is ignored, and the resulting iterator only has SEG_MOVETO, SEG_LINETO and SEG_CLOSE points. If the optional transform is provided, the iterator is transformed accordingly. Each call returns a new object, independent from others in use. This class is not threadsafe to begin with, so the path iterator is not either.

Specified by:

getPathIterator in interface Shape

Parameters:

transform - an optional transform to apply to the iterator

flatness - the maximum distance for deviation from the real boundary

Returns:

a new iterator over the boundary

Since:

1.2

public boolean inside(int x,
                      int y)

Deprecated. use contains(int,int) instead

Tests whether or not the specified point is inside this polygon.

Parameters:

x - the X coordinate of the point to test

y - the Y coordinate of the point to test

Returns:

true if the point is inside this polygon

contains(double,double)

public boolean intersects(double x,
                          double y,
                          double w,
                          double h)

Test if a high-precision rectangle intersects the shape. This is true if any point in the rectangle is in the shape. This implementation is precise.

Specified by:

intersects in interface Shape

Parameters:

x - the x coordinate of the rectangle

y - the y coordinate of the rectangle

w - the width of the rectangle, treated as point if negative

h - the height of the rectangle, treated as point if negative

Returns:

true if the rectangle intersects this shape

Since:

1.2

public boolean intersects(Rectangle2D r)

Test if a high-precision rectangle intersects the shape. This is true if any point in the rectangle is in the shape. This implementation is precise.

Specified by:

intersects in interface Shape

Parameters:

r - the rectangle

Returns:

true if the rectangle intersects this shape

Throws:

NullPointerException - if r is null

Since:

1.2

intersects(double,double,double,double)

public void invalidate()

Invalidate or flush all cached data. After direct manipulation of the public member fields, this is necessary to avoid inconsistent results in methods like contains.

Since:

1.4

See Also:

getBounds()

public void reset()

Reset the polygon to be empty. The arrays are left alone, to avoid object allocation, but the number of points is set to 0, and all cached data is discarded. If you are discarding a huge number of points, it may be more efficient to just create a new Polygon.

Since:

1.4

invalidate()

public void translate(int dx,
                      int dy)

Translates the polygon by adding the specified values to all X and Y coordinates. This updates the bounding box, if it has been calculated.

Parameters:

dx - the amount to add to all X coordinates

dy - the amount to add to all Y coordinates
