Jeremy has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional commit since the last revision: 8176501: Method Shape.getBounds2D() incorrectly includes Bezier control points in bounding box Addressing code review recommendation to calculate polynomial coefficients using differences / vector notation. https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/6227#discussion_r743534560 I generally understand the intention of this change, but I don't know exactly how to test/evaluate it. The unit tests still pass. I ran some sample calculations involving a 100x100 Ellipse2D as it was rotated, and the two getBounds2D(..) implementations (before and after this commit) only differed by a few ulps (usually around 10^-15), as expected. ------------- Changes: - all: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6227/files - new: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6227/files/e617c722..b7ca69c8 Webrevs: - full: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=6227&range=04 - incr: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=6227&range=03-04 Stats: 19 lines in 1 file changed: 10 ins; 0 del; 9 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6227.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/6227/head:pull/6227 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6227
