CoordinateArrays

public CoordinateArrays()

Method Detail

isRing

public static boolean isRing(Coordinate[] pts)

Tests whether an array of Coordinates forms a ring, by checking length and closure. Self-intersection is not checked.

Parameters:

pts - an array of Coordinates

Returns:

true if the coordinate form a ring.

ptNotInList

public static Coordinate ptNotInList(Coordinate[] testPts,
                                     Coordinate[] pts)

Finds a point in a list of points which is not contained in another list of points

Parameters:

testPts - the Coordinates to test

pts - an array of Coordinates to test the input points against

Returns:

a Coordinate from testPts which is not in pts, ' or null

compare

public static int compare(Coordinate[] pts1,
                          Coordinate[] pts2)

Compares two Coordinate arrays in the forward direction of their coordinates, using lexicographic ordering.

Parameters:

pts1 -

pts2 -

Returns:

an integer indicating the order

increasingDirection

public static int increasingDirection(Coordinate[] pts)

Determines which orientation of the Coordinate array is (overall) increasing. In other words, determines which end of the array is "smaller" (using the standard ordering on Coordinate). Returns an integer indicating the increasing direction. If the sequence is a palindrome, it is defined to be oriented in a positive direction.

Parameters:

pts - the array of Coordinates to test

Returns:

1 if the array is smaller at the start or is a palindrome, -1 if smaller at the end

copyDeep

public static Coordinate[] copyDeep(Coordinate[] coordinates)

Creates a deep copy of the argument Coordinate array.

Parameters:

coordinates - an array of Coordinates

Returns:

a deep copy of the input

copyDeep

public static void copyDeep(Coordinate[] src,
                            int srcStart,
                            Coordinate[] dest,
                            int destStart,
                            int length)

Creates a deep copy of a given section of a source Coordinate array into a destination Coordinate array. The destination array must be an appropriate size to receive the copied coordinates.

Parameters:

src - an array of Coordinates

srcStart - the index to start copying from

dest - the

destStart - the destination index to start copying to

length - the number of items to copy

toCoordinateArray

public static Coordinate[] toCoordinateArray(java.util.Collection coordList)

Converts the given Collection of Coordinates into a Coordinate array.

hasRepeatedPoints

public static boolean hasRepeatedPoints(Coordinate[] coord)

Returns whether #equals returns true for any two consecutive Coordinates in the given array.

atLeastNCoordinatesOrNothing

public static Coordinate[] atLeastNCoordinatesOrNothing(int n,
                                                        Coordinate[] c)

Returns either the given coordinate array if its length is greater than the given amount, or an empty coordinate array.

removeRepeatedPoints

public static Coordinate[] removeRepeatedPoints(Coordinate[] coord)

If the coordinate array argument has repeated points, constructs a new array containing no repeated points. Otherwise, returns the argument.

See Also:

hasRepeatedPoints(Coordinate[])

reverse

public static void reverse(Coordinate[] coord)

Reverses the coordinates in an array in-place.

equals

public static boolean equals(Coordinate[] coord1,
                             Coordinate[] coord2)

Returns true if the two arrays are identical, both null, or pointwise equal (as compared using Coordinate#equals)

See Also:

Coordinate.equals(Object)

equals

public static boolean equals(Coordinate[] coord1,
                             Coordinate[] coord2,
                             java.util.Comparator coordinateComparator)

Returns true if the two arrays are identical, both null, or pointwise equal, using a user-defined CoordinateArrays.ForwardComparator for Coordinate s

Parameters:

coord1 - an array of Coordinates

coord2 - an array of Coordinates

coordinateComparator - a Comparator for Coordinates

minCoordinate

public static Coordinate minCoordinate(Coordinate[] coordinates)

Returns the minimum coordinate, using the usual lexicographic comparison.

Parameters:

coordinates - the array to search

Returns:

the minimum coordinate in the array, found using compareTo

scroll

public static void scroll(Coordinate[] coordinates,
                          Coordinate firstCoordinate)

Shifts the positions of the coordinates until firstCoordinate is first.

Parameters:

coordinates - the array to rearrange

firstCoordinate - the coordinate to make first

indexOf

public static int indexOf(Coordinate coordinate,
                          Coordinate[] coordinates)

Returns the index of coordinate in coordinates. The first position is 0; the second, 1; etc.

Parameters:

coordinate - the Coordinate to search for

coordinates - the array to search

Returns:

the position of coordinate, or -1 if it is not found

extract

public static Coordinate[] extract(Coordinate[] pts,
                                   int start,
                                   int end)

Extracts a subsequence of the input Coordinate array from indices start to end (inclusive). The input indices are clamped to the array size; If the end index is less than the start index, the extracted array will be empty.

Parameters:

pts - the input array

start - the index of the start of the subsequence to extract

end - the index of the end of the subsequence to extract

Returns:

a subsequence of the input array
