Method Detail

intersectsAt

public Point intersectsAt(Line l)

Calculate the point of intersection of two lines.

Parameters:

l - the second line

Returns:

the point of intersection or null if the lines do not intercept or are coincident

segDist

public double segDist(Line seg)

Returns the minimum distance between two line segments--this line segment and another. If they intersect the distance is 0. Lines can be parallel or skewed (non-parallel).

Parameters:

seg - The other line segment.

Returns:

The distance between the two line segments.

lengthen

public void lengthen(float delta)

Make this line longer by an amount delta at each end. Used by DijkstraPathFinder to use the same LineMap as the a RangeScanner in MCL navigation.

Parameters:

delta - the amount added to each end

length

public float length()

Return the length of the line

Returns:

the length of the line

getP1

public Point getP1()

Description copied from class: Line2D

Get the start point of the line as a Point2D

Overrides:

getP1 in class Line2D.Float

Returns:

the Point2D

getP2

public Point getP2()

Description copied from class: Line2D

Get the end point of the line as a Point2D

Overrides:

getP2 in class Line2D.Float

Returns:

the Point2D
