Class Position2D

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable, Position, Cloneable

    public class Position2D
    extends Point2D.Double
    implements Position, Serializable, Cloneable
    Holds the coordinates for a two-dimensional position within some coordinate reference system.

    Note 1:

    This class inherits x and y fields. But despite their names, they don't need to be oriented toward East and North. The (x,y) axis can have any orientation and should be understood as "ordinate 0" and "ordinate 1" values instead. This is not specific to this implementation; in Java2D too, the visual axis orientation depend on the affine transform in the graphics context.

    The rational for avoiding axis orientation restriction is that other Position implementation do not have such restriction, and it would be hard to generalize (what to do with North-East direction?).

    Note 2:

    Do not mix instances of this class with ordinary Point2D instances in a HashSet or as HashMap keys. It is not possible to meet both Point2D.hashCode() and Position.hashCode() contract, and this class choose to implements the later. Concequently, hashCode() is inconsistent with Point2D.equals(java.lang.Object) (but is consistent with Position.equals(java.lang.Object)).

    In other words, it is safe to add instances of DirectPosition2D in a HashSet<DirectPosition>, but it is unsafe to add them in a HashSet<Point2D>. Collections that do not rely on Object.hashCode(), like ArrayList, are safe in all cases.
