-------------------------------------
Summary: Remove Euclidean Point Classes
Key: GEOMETRY-23
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEOMETRY-23
Project: Apache Commons Geometry
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Matt Juntunen
Based on discussion of the current Point/Vector API in GEOMETRY-14 and research
into other geometric libraries, I think we should remove the Euclidean Point?D
classes and make Vector?D also implement Point. This will end up being similar
to the previous commons-math design but avoids the issue raised in MATH-1284
since the Point and Vector interfaces are not related. They just happen to be
implemented by the same class, which we're calling Vector?D since a vector can
be used to indicate a point (by adding it to the origin).
In the course of trying this out this design, I ended up removing 7 classes and
simplifying several methods. I think that's a good indicator that this is a
good design choice.
