java.awt.Rectangle. intersection()

问题

I was developing an task when I decided to use java.awt.Rectangle to calculate the intersection between two rectangles.

I realised that the output is different from what I expected. I'm not sure if I understood how this method works or not.

For the values in the example here java.awt.Rectangle[x=0,y=10,width=5,height=8] java.awt.Rectangle[x=3,y=15,width=17,height=14]

I expect the intersection to be java.awt.Rectangle[x=3,y=10,width=2,height=8] but the program prints java.awt.Rectangle[x=3,y=15,width=2,height=3] instead!

here is my code:

public void printIntersection(){ 
    Rectangle r1 = new Rectangle(0, 10, 5, 8);
    Rectangle r2 = new Rectangle(3, 15, 17, 14);
    Rectangle r3 = r1.intersection(r2);

    System.out.println(r1);
    System.out.println(r2);
    System.out.println(r3);

}

Can anyone help me by pointing out what am I missing here?

UPDATE: The source of my confusion is that the code treats the (x,y) values in the constructor as the bottom-left corner, while the class doc suggests that they are the upper-left corner!

回答1:

The opposite corners of your rectangles are (0,10),(5,18) and (3,15),(20,29), so the intersection is (3,15),(5,18), so I think the result is the expected one. Notice the opposite corners of the resultant one are the bottom-right of the first one and the top-left of the second one.

Edit: The way it works is: the starting point is (x,y), and the sides are calculated adding the widthand height to the starting point, so the opposite corner will be (x+width,y+height)

Final note: (0,0) is the upper-left corner of the canvas: Here is an example: (0,0,4,4) and (2,2,4,4) intersection is (2,2,2,2): (2,2) is the upper-left one and (2+2,2+2) is opposite corner

The answer you are getting is correct. The method works like this.

1st Rectangle:

X co-ordinates: 0
Y co-ordinates: 10
Width: 5
Height: 8

2nd Rectangle:

X co-ordinates: 3
Y co-ordinates: 15
Width: 17
Height: 14

For the intersection the X and Y co-ordinates are same as 2nd rectangle. Width is 5-3=2 and Height is 18-15=3

I also had trouble with this. The way I think about it is that the grid used is inverted on the y axis. Because point 0.0 is at the top left of the screen with point 0,1 being below rather than above that point you can get the answer you are expecting by inverting the the y axis in your original code.

For example.

public void printIntersection(){ 
Rectangle r1 = new Rectangle(0, 10 * -1 , 5, 8);
Rectangle r2 = new Rectangle(3, 15 * -1, 17, 14);
Rectangle r3 = r1.intersection(r2);

System.out.println(r1);
System.out.println(r2);
System.out.println(r3);

}

This should give you the answer you are expecting
