public abstract class RectangularShape
extends Object   
implements Shape   , Cloneable   

RectangularShape is the base class for a number of Shape objects whose geometry is defined by a rectangular frame. This class does not directly specify any specific geometry by itself, but merely provides manipulation methods inherited by a whole category of Shape objects. The manipulation methods provided by this class can be used to query and modify the rectangular frame, which provides a reference for the subclasses to define their geometry.
