Graphics Rasterizer Project
An encumbrance. This Project became inactive shortly after the feature was delivered into JDK 7 and was subsequently dissolved Oct 2023. Discussion about font rasterization may be found on client-libs-dev.
Introduction
Due to encumbrances in the 2D source code (see the 2D Graphics page for more), some of the implementation of the Java 2D API requires open source replacements.
This project encompasses the JDK code that
- generates alpha tiles of coverage values given an input geometry
- widens paths as per the implementation of BasicStroke.createStrokedShape()
As documented on the group page referenced above, this work has been implemented using the Marlin renderer.
