Class ShapeBounds

java.lang.Object

com.bric.multislider.ShapeBounds

public class ShapeBounds
extends Object

This class features an efficient and accurate getBounds() method. The java.awt.Shape API clearly states that the Shape.getBounds2D() method may return a rectangle larger than the bounds of the actual shape, so here I present a method to get the bounds without resorting to the very-accurate-but-very-slow java.awt.geom.Area class.

Method Detail

getBounds

public static Rectangle2D getBounds(Shape shape)
                             throws EmptyPathException

This calculates the precise bounds of a shape.

Parameters:

shape - the shape you want the bounds of. This method throws a NullPointerException if this is null.

Returns:

the bounds of shape.

Throws:

EmptyPathException - if the shape argument is empty.

getBounds

public static Rectangle2D getBounds(Shape[] shapes)

getBounds

public static Rectangle2D getBounds(Shape shape,
                                    AffineTransform transform)
                             throws EmptyPathException

This calculates the precise bounds of a shape.

Parameters:

shape - the shape you want the bounds of. This method throws a NullPointerException if this is null.

transform - if this is non-null, then this method returns the bounds of shape as seen through t.

Returns:

the bounds of shape, as seen through transform.

Throws:

EmptyPathException - if the shape argument is empty.

getBounds

public static Rectangle2D getBounds(Shape shape,
                                    AffineTransform transform,
                                    Rectangle2D r)
                             throws EmptyPathException

This calculates the precise bounds of a shape.

Parameters:

shape - the shape you want the bounds of. This method throws a NullPointerException if this is null.

transform - if this is non-null, then this method returns the bounds of shape as seen through t.

r - if this is non-null, then the result is stored in this rectangle. This is useful when you need to call this method repeatedly without allocating a lot of memory.

Returns:

the bounds of shape, as seen through transform.

Throws:

EmptyPathException - if the shape argument is empty.

getBounds

public static Rectangle2D getBounds(Shape shape,
                                    Rectangle2D r)
                             throws EmptyPathException

This calculates the precise bounds of a shape.

Parameters:

shape - the shape you want the bounds of. This method throws a NullPointerException if this is null.

r - if this is non-null, then the result is stored in this rectangle. This is useful when you need to call this method repeatedly without allocating a lot of memory.

Returns:

the bounds of shape.

Throws:

EmptyPathException - if the shape argument is empty.

getBounds

public static Rectangle2D getBounds(PathIterator i)

This calculates the precise bounds of a shape.

Parameters:

i - the shape you want the bounds of. This method throws a NullPointerException if this is null.

Returns:

the bounds of i.

getBounds

public static Rectangle2D getBounds(PathIterator i,
                                    Rectangle2D r)

This calculates the precise bounds of a shape.

Parameters:

i - the shape you want the bounds of. This method throws a NullPointerException if this is null.

r - if this is non-null, then the result is stored in this rectangle. This is useful when you need to call this method repeatedly without allocating a lot of memory.

Returns:

the bounds of i.
