public class Rectangle
extends Rectangle2D
implements Shape, Serializable

A Rectangle specifies an area in a coordinate space that is enclosed by the Rectangle object's top-left point (xy) in the coordinate space, its width, and its height.

A Rectangle object's width and height are public fields. The constructors that create a Rectangle, and the methods that can modify one, do not prevent setting a negative value for width or height.

A Rectangle whose width or height is negative is considered empty. If the Rectangle is empty, then the isEmpty method returns true. No point can be contained by or inside an empty Rectangle. The values of width and height, however, 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 Rectangle objects has a negative width or height. These methods include intersects, intersection, and union.

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 does 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 right or bottom edge of the enlarged Rectangle, contains returns false for that point.

Parameters:
newx, newy - the coordinates of the new point

add

public void add(Point pt)
Adds the specified Point 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 does 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 right or bottom edge of the enlarged Rectangle, contains returns false for that Point.

Parameters:
pt - the new Point to add to this Rectangle

add

public void add(Rectangle r)
Adds a Rectangle to this Rectangle. The resulting Rectangle is the union of the two rectangles.
Parameters:
r - the specified Rectangle

grow

public void grow(int h,
                 int v)
Resizes 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

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()
Determines whether or not this Rectangle is empty. A Rectangle is empty if its width or its height is less than or equal to zero.
Overrides:
isEmpty in class RectangularShape
Returns:
true if this Rectangle is empty; false otherwise.

outcode

public int outcode(double x,
                   double y)
Determines where the specified coordinates lie with respect to this Rectangle. This method computes a binary OR of the appropriate mask values indicating, for each side of this Rectangle, whether or not the specified coordinates are on the same side of the edge as the rest of this Rectangle.
Overrides:
outcode in class Rectangle2D
Parameters:
x, y - the specified coordinates
Returns:
the logical OR of all appropriate out codes.
Since:
1.2

Returns a new Rectangle2D object representing the union of this Rectangle with the specified Rectangle2D.
Overrides:
createUnion in class Rectangle2D
Parameters:
r - the Rectangle2D to be combined with this Rectangle
Returns:
the smallest Rectangle2D containing both the specified Rectangle2D and this Rectangle.
Since:
1.2

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.

Overrides:
equals in class Rectangle2D
Parameters:
obj - the Object to compare with this Rectangle
Returns:
true if the objects are equal; false otherwise.
