Interface Stroke

All Known Implementing Classes:
BasicStroke

public interface Stroke

The Stroke interface allows a Graphics2D object to obtain a Shape that is the decorated outline, or stylistic representation of the outline, of the specified Shape.

The objects of the classes implementing Stroke must be read-only because Graphics2D does not clone these objects either when they are set as an attribute with the setStroke method or when the Graphics2D object is itself cloned. If a Stroke object is modified after it is set in the Graphics2D context then the behavior of subsequent rendering would be undefined.
