FontRenderContext

public FontRenderContext(AffineTransform tx,
                         boolean isAntiAliased,
                         boolean usesFractionalMetrics)
Construct a new FontRenderContext.

Method Details

equals

public boolean equals(FontRenderContext rhs)

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
Determine whether this Object is semantically equal to another Object.

There are some fairly strict requirements on this method which subclasses must follow:

  • It must be transitive. If a.equals(b) and b.equals(c), then a.equals(c) must be true as well.
  • It must be symmetric. a.equals(b) and b.equals(a) must have the same value.
  • It must be reflexive. a.equals(a) must always be true.
  • It must be consistent. Whichever value a.equals(b) returns on the first invocation must be the value returned on all later invocations.
  • a.equals(null) must be false.
  • It must be consistent with hashCode(). That is, a.equals(b) must imply a.hashCode() == b.hashCode(). The reverse is not true; two objects that are not equal may have the same hashcode, but that has the potential to harm hashing performance.

This is typically overridden to throw a ClassCastException if the argument is not comparable to the class performing the comparison, but that is not a requirement. It is legal for a.equals(b) to be true even though a.getClass() != b.getClass(). Also, it is typical to never cause a NullPointerException.

In general, the Collections API (java.util) use the equals method rather than the == operator to compare objects. However, IdentityHashMap is an exception to this rule, for its own good reasons.

The default implementation returns this == o.

Overrides:
equals in interface Object
Parameters:
obj - the Object to compare to
Returns:
whether this Object is semantically equal to another

getTransform

public AffineTransform getTransform()

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Returns the hash code of the font render context.
Overrides:
hashCode in interface Object

isAntiAliased

public boolean isAntiAliased()

usesFractionalMetrics

public boolean usesFractionalMetrics()
