## 18.52 java.awt.Rectangle (JDK 1.0)

###

This class defines a rectangle as the X and Y coordinate of its upper-left corner and a width and height. The instance methods perform various tests and transformations on the rectangle. The `x`, `y`, `width`, and `height` variables are public and may thus be manipulated directly. `Rectangle` objects are used in several places in the `java.awt` package to specify clipping rectangles and bounding boxes.

    public class Rectangle extends Object implements Shape, Serializable {
        // Public Constructors
                public Rectangle();
            1.1  public Rectangle(Rectangle r);
                public Rectangle(int x, int y, int width, int height);
                public Rectangle(int width, int height);
                public Rectangle(Point p, Dimension d);
                public Rectangle(Point p);
                public Rectangle(Dimension d);
        // Public Instance Variables
                public int height;
                public int width;
                public int x;
                public int y;
        // Public Instance Methods
                public void add(int newx, int newy);
                public void add(Point pt);
                public void add(Rectangle r);
            1.1  public boolean contains(Point p);
            1.1  public boolean contains(int x, int y);
                public boolean equals(Object obj);  // Overrides Object
            1.1  public Rectangle getBounds();  // From Shape
            1.1  public Point getLocation();
            1.1  public Dimension getSize();
                public void grow(int h, int v);
                public int hashCode();  // Overrides Object
            #   public boolean inside(int x, int y);
                public Rectangle intersection(Rectangle r);
                public boolean intersects(Rectangle r);
                public boolean isEmpty();
            #   public void move(int x, int y);
            #   public void reshape(int x, int y, int width, int height);
            #   public void resize(int width, int height);
            1.1  public void setBounds(Rectangle r);
            1.1  public void setBounds(int x, int y, int width, int height);
            1.1  public void setLocation(Point p);
            1.1  public void setLocation(int x, int y);
            1.1  public void setSize(Dimension d);
            1.1  public void setSize(int width, int height);
                public String toString();  // Overrides Object
                public void translate(int x, int y);
                public Rectangle union(Rectangle r);
    }
