Constructor Detail

### BufferParameters

    public BufferParameters()

  Creates a default set of parameters

### BufferParameters

    public BufferParameters(int quadrantSegments)

  Creates a set of parameters with the given quadrantSegments value.

Parameters:
  `quadrantSegments` - the number of quadrant segments to use

### BufferParameters

    public BufferParameters(int quadrantSegments,
                            int endCapStyle)

  Creates a set of parameters with the given quadrantSegments and endCapStyle values.

Parameters:
  `quadrantSegments` - the number of quadrant segments to use
  `endCapStyle` - the end cap style to use

### BufferParameters

    public BufferParameters(int quadrantSegments,
                            int endCapStyle,
                            int joinStyle,
                            double mitreLimit)

  Creates a set of parameters with the given parameter values.

Parameters:
  `quadrantSegments` - the number of quadrant segments to use
  `endCapStyle` - the end cap style to use
  `joinStyle` - the join style to use
  `mitreLimit` - the mitre limit to use

Method Detail

### getQuadrantSegments

    public int getQuadrantSegments()

  Gets the number of quadrant segments which will be used

  Returns:
    the number of quadrant segments

### setQuadrantSegments

    public void setQuadrantSegments(int quadSegs)

  Sets the number of line segments used to approximate an angle fillet.
  - If qs >= 1, joins are round, and qs indicates the number of segments to use to approximate a quarter-circle.
  - If qs = 0, joins are beveled
  - If qs < 0, joins are mitred, and the value of qs indicates the mitre ration limit as

         mitreLimit = |qs|

### getEndCapStyle

    public int getEndCapStyle()

  Gets the end cap style.

  Returns:
    the end cap style

### setEndCapStyle

    public void setEndCapStyle(int endCapStyle)

  Specifies the end cap style of the generated buffer. The styles supported are `CAP_ROUND`, `#CAP_BUTT`, and `CAP_SQUARE`. The default is CAP_ROUND.

  Parameters:
    `endCapStyle` - the end cap style to specify

### getJoinStyle

    public int getJoinStyle()

  Gets the join style

  Returns:
    the join style code

### setJoinStyle

    public void setJoinStyle(int joinStyle)

  Sets the join style for outside (reflex) corners between line segments. Allowable values are `JOIN_ROUND` (which is the default), `JOIN_MITRE` and {link JOIN_BEVEL}.

  Parameters:
    `joinStyle` - the code for the join style

### getMitreLimit

    public double getMitreLimit()

  Gets the mitre ratio limit.

  Returns:
    the limit value

### setMitreLimit

    public void setMitreLimit(double mitreLimit)

  Sets the limit on the mitre ratio used for very sharp corners. The mitre ratio is the ratio of the distance from the corner to the end of the mitred offset corner. When two line segments meet at a sharp angle, a miter join will extend far beyond the original geometry. (and in the extreme case will be infinitely far.) To prevent unreasonable geometry, the mitre limit allows controlling the maximum length of the join corner. Corners with a ratio which exceed the limit will be beveled.

  Parameters:
    `mitreLimit` - the mitre ratio limit
