Description
|
The Java Doc for method
public Rectangle java.awt.Rectangle.intersection(Rectangle r)
says:
----------
Computes the intersection of this Rectangle with the specified Rectangle. Returns a new Rectangle that
represents the intersection of the two rectangles.
Parameters:
r - the specified Rectangle
Returns:
the largest Rectangle contained in both the specified Rectangle and in thisRectangle.
----------
and says nothing about result for non-intersection rectangles.
It is unclear what "largest Rectangle contained in both" mean in this case.

Evaluation

Well, the text describing the return value was awkward, though it did say it returned a rectangle of size 0. I reworded it to be more clear and flow better. Fixed for merlin.

The checks for empty rectangles added (see bug bix #4286619 for more details.)
