Constructor Detail

CoordinateSystem

public CoordinateSystem(CoordinateSystemAxis... axes)

Constructs a CoordinateSystem.

CoordinateSystems are characterized by their CoordinateSystemAxes.

Parameters:

axes - the sequence (at least two) of its CoordinateSystems.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - when less than two axes are specified, or when an argument is null.

Method Detail

getPositionClass

public abstract Class<P> getPositionClass()

getAxes

public CoordinateSystemAxis[] getAxes()

Returns the CoordinateSystemAxes of this CoordinateSystem (in order).

Returns:

getAxisDirections

public List<CoordinateSystemAxisDirection> getAxisDirections()

Returns a list of all the directions of this systems

Returns:

a List of Coordinate system axis directions.

getAxisNormalOrder

public List<Integer> getAxisNormalOrder()

Returns the normal order value for the axes of this systems in the order that the axes have been defined for this system.

Returns:

a List of Coordinate system axis directions.

getCoordinateDimension

public int getCoordinateDimension()

Returns the coordinate dimension, i.e. the number of axes in this coordinate system.

Returns:

getAxisIndex

public int getAxisIndex(CoordinateSystemAxis axis)

Returns the position of the specified CoordinateSystemAxis in this CoordinateSystem, or -1 if it is not an axis of this instance.

Parameters:

axis -

Returns:

getAxisForComponentIndex

public CoordinateSystemAxis getAxisForComponentIndex(int i)

Return the axis that corresponds to the i-th element in the coordinates for a Position in this CoordinateSystem.

Parameters:

i - the 0-base index for a coordinate

Returns:

the axis

Throws:

IndexOutOfBoundsException - if i > getCoordinateDimension() - 1

getAxis

public CoordinateSystemAxis getAxis(int index)

Returns the CoordinateSystemAxis at the specified position.

Parameters:

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

merge

public abstract CoordinateSystem<?> merge(OneDimensionCoordinateSystem<?> coordinateSystem)

Create a coordinate system that merges this instance with the specified system

Parameters:

coordinateSystem - the system to merge with

Returns:

a new CoordinateSystem

Throws:

extend

public abstract CoordinateSystem<?> extend(CoordinateSystemAxis axis)

Create a new coordinate system with the axes of this system plus the specified axis

Parameters:
