Interface RTree.Boxed

All Known Implementing Classes:

RTree.Box

Enclosing class:

RTree

public static interface RTree.Boxed

An N-dimensional object in a box defined by N min/max coordinates.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	getBounds(float[] min, float[] max) Gets the N min/max coordinates for this boxed object.
float	getDistanceSquared(float[] point) Gets the distance-squared from this boxed object to a point.

Method Detail

getBounds

void getBounds(float[] min,
             float[] max)

Gets the N min/max coordinates for this boxed object. While an object is in an R-tree, these bounds should be constant.

Parameters:

min - array to contain N min coordinates.

max - array to contain N max coordinates.

getDistanceSquared

float getDistanceSquared(float[] point)

Gets the distance-squared from this boxed object to a point. Note: this distance is typically not the same as the distance from the boxed object's bounds to the point. Rather, it is the distance from the object within those bounds.

Parameters:

point - array of N point coordinates.

Returns:

the distance-squared.
