public class Area extends Object implements Shape, Cloneable
An Area
object stores and manipulates a
resolution-independent description of an enclosed area of
2-dimensional space.
Area
objects can be transformed and can perform
various Constructive Area Geometry (CAG) operations when combined
with other Area
objects.
The CAG operations include area
{@link #add addition}, {@link #subtract subtraction},
{@link #intersect intersection}, and {@link #exclusiveOr exclusive or}.
See the linked method documentation for examples of the various
operations.
The Area
class implements the Shape
interface and provides full support for all of its hit-testing
and path iteration facilities, but an Area
is more
specific than a generalized path in a number of ways:
Area
objects constructed from unclosed paths
are implicitly closed during construction as if those paths
had been filled by the Graphics2D.fill
method.
Area
resembles the path from which it was
constructed only in that it describes the same enclosed
2-dimensional area, but may use entirely different types
and ordering of the path segments to do so.
Area
include:
Area
from an unclosed (open)
Shape
results in a closed outline in the
Area
object.
Area
from a Shape
which encloses no area (even when "closed") produces an
empty Area
. A common example of this issue
is that producing an Area
from a line will
be empty since the line encloses no area. An empty
Area
will iterate no geometry in its
PathIterator
objects.
Shape
may be split into
two (or more) sub-paths each enclosing one of the
non-intersecting portions of the original path.
Area
may take more path segments to
describe the same geometry even when the original
outline is simple and obvious. The analysis that the
Area
class must perform on the path may
not reflect the same concepts of "simple and obvious"
as a human being perceives.

public Area()
public Area(Shape s)
Area
class creates an area geometry from the
specified {@link Shape} object. The geometry is explicitly
closed, if the Shape
is not already closed. The
fill rule (even-odd or winding) specified by the geometry of the
Shape
is used to determine the resulting enclosed area.

The Area class will attempt to return the tightest bounding box possible for the Shape. The bounding box will not be padded to include the control points of curves in the outline of the Shape, but should tightly fit the actual geometry of the outline itself. Since the returned object represents the bounding box with integers, the bounding box can only be as tight as the nearest integer coordinates that encompass the geometry of the Shape.
