  y.view.Util

public final class Util
extends Object

This class provides some static convenience methods and temporary scratch variables.
Note that this is inherently flawed if used in multi-threaded environments! If used inside a single Thread, this might be ok. The alias(Graphics2D) and unalias(Graphics2D) are thread-safe - however the use of the fields is not!

Field Summary

static double[]	DOUBLE2 Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)
static double	EPSILON A reasonable small value ( 0.000001 ) useful for approximating 0.0.
static float[]	FLOAT2 Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)
static float[]	FLOAT6 Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)
static Point2D	POINT2D Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)
static AffineTransform	TRANSFORM Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)

Method Summary

static void	alias(Graphics2D g) Puts a graphics context in anti-aliasing mode.
static void	unalias(Graphics2D g) Turns off anti-aliasing mode of a graphics context.

Field Detail

FLOAT2

public static float[] FLOAT2

Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)

A 2-dimensional float array that may be used as temporary scratch variable.

FLOAT6

public static float[] FLOAT6

Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)

A six-dimensional float array that may be used as temporary scratch variable, e.g. when working with PathIterators.

DOUBLE2

public static double[] DOUBLE2

Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)

A 2-dimensional double array that may be used as temporary scratch variable.

POINT2D

public static Point2D POINT2D

Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)

A Point2D in double precision that may be used as temporary scratch variable.

TRANSFORM

public static AffineTransform TRANSFORM

Deprecated. Do not use (Threading issues)

An Affine Transform that may be used as temporary scratch variable.

EPSILON

public static final double EPSILON

A reasonable small value ( 0.000001 ) useful for approximating 0.0.

Method Detail

alias

public static void alias(Graphics2D g)

Puts a graphics context in anti-aliasing mode. This method keeps track of a counter for each graphics context. The counter is increased each time this method is called. The counter is zero initially, whenever the counter gets positive, the rendering hint will be set.

unalias

public static void unalias(Graphics2D g)

Turns off anti-aliasing mode of a graphics context. This method keeps track of a counter for each graphics context. The counter is decreased each time this method is called. The counter is zero initially, whenever the counter gets non-positive, the rendering hint will be reset.
