Class java.awt.Rectangle

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----java.awt.Rectangle

public class Rectangle
extends Object
implements Shape, Serializable
A rectangle specifies an area in a coordinate space that is defined by the rectangle's top-left point (xy) in the coordinate space, its width, and its height.

A rectangle's width and height are public fields. The constructors that allow you to create a rectangle, and the methods that allow you to modify one, do not prevent you from setting a negative value for width or height.

A rectangle whose width or height is negative is considered empty, and all methods defined by the Rectangle class behave accordingly. If the rectangle is empty, then the method isEmpty returns true. No point can be contained by or inside an empty rectangle, however the values of width and height are still valid. An empty rectangle still has a location in the coordinate space, and methods that change its size or location remain valid. The behavior of methods that operate on more than one rectangle is undefined if any of the participating rectangles has a negative width or height. These methods include intersects, intersection, and union.

 public Rectangle intersection(Rectangle r)
Computes the intersection of this rectangle with the specified rectangle. Returns a new rectangle that represents the intersection of the two rectangles.

Parameters:

Returns:
the largest rectangle contained in both the specified rectangle and in this rectangle.
 o union
 public Rectangle union(Rectangle r)
Computes the union of this rectangle with the specified rectangle. Returns a new rectangle that represents the union of the two rectangles.

 o add
 public void add(int newx,
                 int newy)
Adds a point, specified by the integer arguments newx and newy, to this rectangle. The resulting rectangle is the smallest rectangle that contains both the original rectangle and the specified point.

After adding a point, a call to contains with the added point as an argument will not necessarily return true. The contains method does not return true for points on the right or bottom edges of a rectangle. Therefore if the added point falls on the left or bottom edge of the enlarged rectangle, contains will return false for that point.

Parameters:
newx - the x coordinate of the new point.
newy - the y coordinate of the new point.
 o add
 public void add(Point pt)
Adds the point pt to this rectangle. The resulting rectangle is the smallest rectangle that contains both the original rectangle and the specified point.

After adding a point, a call to contains with the added point as an argument will not necessarily return true. The contains method does not return true for points on the right or bottom edges of a rectangle. Therefore if the added point falls on the left or bottom edge of the enlarged rectangle, contains will return false for that point.

Parameters:
pt - the new point to add to the rectangle.
 o add
 public void add(Rectangle r)
Adds a rectangle to this rectangle. The resulting rectangle is the union of the two rectangles.

Parameters:
a - rectangle.
 o grow
 public void grow(int h,
                  int v)
Grows the rectangle both horizontally and vertically.

This method modifies the rectangle so that it is h units larger on both the left and right side, and v units larger at both the top and bottom.

The new rectangle has (x - h, y - v) as its top-left corner, a width of width + 2h, and a height of height + 2v.

If negative values are supplied for h and v, the size of the rectangle decreases accordingly. The grow method does not check whether the resulting values of width and height are non-negative.

Parameters:
h - the horizontal expansion.
v - the vertical expansion.
 o isEmpty
 public boolean isEmpty()
Determines whether this rectangle is empty. A rectangle is empty if its width or its height is less than or equal to zero.

Returns:
true if this rectangle is empty; false otherwise.
 o hashCode
 public int hashCode()
Returns the hashcode for this rectangle.

Returns:
the hashcode for this rectangle.
Overrides:
hashCode in class Object
 o equals
 public boolean equals(Object obj)
Checks whether two rectangles are equal.

The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a Rectangle object that has the same top-left corner, width, and height as this rectangle.

Parameters:
obj - the object to compare with.
Returns:
true if the objects are equal; false otherwise.
Overrides:
equals in class Object
 o toString
 public String toString()
Returns a string representation of this rectangle and its values.

Returns:
a string representation of this rectangle.
Overrides:
toString in class Object
