Constructor Detail

• RegionFactory

  public RegionFactory()

  Simple constructor.

Method Detail

• buildConvex

  public Region<S> buildConvex(Hyperplane<S>... hyperplanes)

  Build a convex region from a collection of bounding hyperplanes.

  Parameters:

  hyperplanes - collection of bounding hyperplanes

  Returns:

  a new convex region, or null if the collection is empty

• union

  public Region<S> union(Region<S> region1,
                Region<S> region2)

  Compute the union of two regions.

  Parameters:

  region1 - first region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  region2 - second region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  Returns:

  a new region, result of region1 union region2

• intersection

  public Region<S> intersection(Region<S> region1,
                       Region<S> region2)

  Compute the intersection of two regions.

  Parameters:

  region1 - first region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  region2 - second region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  Returns:

  a new region, result of region1 intersection region2

• xor

  public Region<S> xor(Region<S> region1,
              Region<S> region2)

  Compute the symmetric difference (exclusive or) of two regions.

  Parameters:

  region1 - first region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  region2 - second region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  Returns:

  a new region, result of region1 xor region2

• difference

  public Region<S> difference(Region<S> region1,
                     Region<S> region2)

  Compute the difference of two regions.

  Parameters:

  region1 - first region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  region2 - second region (will be unusable after the operation as parts of it will be reused in the new region)

  Returns:

  a new region, result of region1 minus region2

• getComplement

  public Region<S> getComplement(Region<S> region)

  Get the complement of the region (exchanged interior/exterior).

  Parameters:

  region - region to complement, it will not modified, a new region independent region will be built

  Returns:

  a new region, complement of the specified one
