BoundingBox

public BoundingBox(double minX, double minY, double minZ, double width, double height, double depth)

Creates a new instance of 3D BoundingBox.

Parameters:: minX - the X coordinate of the upper-left corner; minY - the Y coordinate of the upper-left corner; minZ - the minimum z coordinate of the BoundingBox; width - the width of the BoundingBox; height - the height of the BoundingBox; depth - the depth of the BoundingBox

BoundingBox

public BoundingBox(double minX, double minY, double width, double height)

Creates a new instance of 2D BoundingBox.

Parameters:: minX - the X coordinate of the upper-left corner; minY - the Y coordinate of the upper-left corner; width - the width of the BoundingBox; height - the height of the BoundingBox

Method Details

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

Indicates whether any of the dimensions(width, height or depth) of this bounds is less than zero.

Specified by:: isEmpty in class Bounds
Returns:: true if any of the dimensions(width, height or depth) of this bounds is less than zero

contains

public boolean contains(Point2D p)

Tests if the specified point is inside the boundary of Bounds. The points on the boundary are considered to lie inside the BoundingBox.

Specified by:: contains in class Bounds
Parameters:: p - the specified point to be tested
Returns:: true if the specified point is inside the boundary of this Bounds; false otherwise

contains

public boolean contains(Point3D p)

Tests if the specified point is inside the boundary of Bounds. The points on the boundary are considered to lie inside the BoundingBox.

Specified by:: contains in class Bounds
Parameters:: p - the specified 3D point to be tested
Returns:: true if the specified point is inside the boundary of this Bounds; false otherwise

contains

public boolean contains(double x, double y)

Tests if the specified (x, y) coordinates are inside the boundary of Bounds. The points on the boundary are considered to lie inside the BoundingBox.

Specified by:: contains in class Bounds
Parameters:: x - the specified x coordinate to be tested; y - the specified y coordinate to be tested
Returns:: true if the specified (x, y) coordinates are inside the boundary of this Bounds; false otherwise

contains

public boolean contains(double x, double y, double z)
