+/**
+ * The <code>Shape</code> interface provides definitions for objects
+ * that represent some form of geometric shape.  The <code>Shape</code>
+ * is described by a {@link PathIterator} object, which can express the
+ * outline of the <code>Shape</code> as well as a rule for determining
+ * how the outline divides the 2D plane into interior and exterior
+ * points.  Each <code>Shape</code> object provides callbacks to get the
+ * bounding box of the geometry, determine whether points or
+ * rectangles lie partly or entirely within the interior
+ * of the <code>Shape</code>, and retrieve a <code>PathIterator</code>
+ * object that describes the trajectory path of the <code>Shape</code>
+ * outline.
+ * <p>
+ * <b>Definition of insideness:</b>
+ * A point is considered to lie inside a
+ * <code>Shape</code> if and only if:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li> it lies completely
+ * inside the<code>Shape</code> boundary <i>or</i>
+ * <li>
+ * it lies exactly on the <code>Shape</code> boundary <i>and</i> the
+ * space immediately adjacent to the
+ * point in the increasing <code>X</code> direction is
+ * entirely inside the boundary <i>or</i>
+ * <li>
+ * it lies exactly on a horizontal boundary segment <b>and</b> the
+ * space immediately adjacent to the point in the
+ * increasing <code>Y</code> direction is inside the boundary.
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>The <code>contains</code> and <code>intersects</code> methods
+ * consider the interior of a <code>Shape</code> to be the area it
+ * encloses as if it were filled.  This means that these methods
+ * consider
+ * unclosed shapes to be implicitly closed for the purpose of
+ * determining if a shape contains or intersects a rectangle or if a
+ * shape contains a point.
