java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

public class Dimension extends java.awt.geom.Dimension2D implements java.io.Serializable

The Dimension class encapsulates the width and height of a component (in integer precision) in a single object. The class is associated with certain properties of components. Several methods defined by the Component class and the LayoutManager interface return a Dimension object.
Normally the values of width and height are non-negative integers. The constructors that allow you to create a dimension do not prevent you from setting a negative value for these properties. If the value of width or height is negative, the behavior of some methods defined by other objects is undefined.

Since:

1.0

Fields
	Modifier and Type	Field and Description
	height	`int` height The height dimension; negative values can be used. public int height The height dimension; negative values can be used. Since: 1.0 See Also: `getSize()`, `setSize(double, double)`
	width	`int` width The width dimension; negative values can be used. public int width The width dimension; negative values can be used. Since: 1.0 See Also: `getSize()`, `setSize(double, double)`

Constructors
	Constructor and Description
	Dimension	Dimension() Creates an instance of `Dimension` with a width of zero and a height of zero. public Dimension() Creates an instance of `Dimension` with a width of zero and a height of zero.
	Dimension	Dimension(Dimension d) Creates an instance of `Dimension` whose width and height are the same as for the specified dimension. public Dimension(Dimension d) Creates an instance of `Dimension` whose width and height are the same as for the specified dimension. Parameters: `d` - the specified dimension for the `width` and `height` values
	Dimension	Dimension(int width, int height) Constructs a `Dimension` and initializes it to the specified width and specified height. public Dimension(int width, int height) Constructs a `Dimension` and initializes it to the specified width and specified height. Parameters: `width` - the specified width `height` - the specified height

Methods
	Modifier and Type	Method and Description
	clone	`java.lang.Object` clone() Creates a new object of the same class as this object. public java.lang.Object clone() Description copied from class: `java.awt.geom.Dimension2D` Creates a new object of the same class as this object. Overrides: `clone` in class `java.lang.Object` Returns: a clone of this instance. Throws: `java.lang.OutOfMemoryError` - if there is not enough memory. Since: 1.2 See Also: `Cloneable`
	equals	`boolean` equals(java.lang.Object obj) Checks whether two dimension objects have equal values. public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj) Checks whether two dimension objects have equal values. Overrides: `equals` in class `java.lang.Object` Parameters: `obj` - the reference object with which to compare. Returns: `true` if this object is the same as the obj argument; `false` otherwise. See Also: `Object.hashCode()`, `HashMap`
	getHeight	`double` getHeight() Returns the height of this `Dimension` in double precision. public double getHeight() Returns the height of this `Dimension` in double precision. Specified by: `getHeight` in class `java.awt.geom.Dimension2D` Returns: the height of this `Dimension`. Since: 1.2
	getSize	`Dimension` getSize() Gets the size of this `Dimension` object. public Dimension getSize() Gets the size of this `Dimension` object. This method is included for completeness, to parallel the `getSize` method defined by `Component`. Returns: the size of this dimension, a new instance of `Dimension` with the same width and height Since: 1.1 See Also: `setSize(double, double)`, `Component.getSize()`
	getWidth	`double` getWidth() Returns the width of this `Dimension` in double precision. public double getWidth() Returns the width of this `Dimension` in double precision. Specified by: `getWidth` in class `java.awt.geom.Dimension2D` Returns: the width of this `Dimension`. Since: 1.2
	hashCode	`int` hashCode() Returns the hash code for this `Dimension`. public int hashCode() Returns the hash code for this `Dimension`. Overrides: `hashCode` in class `java.lang.Object` Returns: a hash code for this `Dimension` See Also: `Object.equals(java.lang.Object)`, `System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)`
	setSize	`void` setSize(Dimension d) Sets the size of this `Dimension` object to the specified size. public void setSize(Dimension d) Sets the size of this `Dimension` object to the specified size. This method is included for completeness, to parallel the `setSize` method defined by `Component`. Parameters: `d` - the new size for this `Dimension` object Since: 1.1 See Also: `getSize()`, `Component.setSize(int, int)`
	setSize	`void` setSize(java.awt.geom.Dimension2D d) Sets the size of this `Dimension2D` object to match the specified size. public void setSize(java.awt.geom.Dimension2D d) Description copied from class: `java.awt.geom.Dimension2D` Sets the size of this `Dimension2D` object to match the specified size. This method is included for completeness, to parallel the `getSize` method of `Component`. Parameters: `d` - the new size for the `Dimension2D` object Since: 1.2
	setSize	`void` setSize(double width, double height) Sets the size of this `Dimension` object to the specified width and height in double precision. public void setSize(double width, double height) Sets the size of this `Dimension` object to the specified width and height in double precision. Note that if `width` or `height` are larger than `Integer.MAX_VALUE`, they will be reset to `Integer.MAX_VALUE`. Specified by: `setSize` in class `java.awt.geom.Dimension2D` Parameters: `width` - the new width for the `Dimension` object `height` - the new height for the `Dimension` object Since: 1.2
	setSize	`void` setSize(int width, int height) Sets the size of this `Dimension` object to the specified width and height. public void setSize(int width, int height) Sets the size of this `Dimension` object to the specified width and height. This method is included for completeness, to parallel the `setSize` method defined by `Component`. Parameters: `width` - the new width for this `Dimension` object `height` - the new height for this `Dimension` object Since: 1.1 See Also: `getSize()`, `Component.setSize(int, int)`
	toString	`java.lang.String` toString() Returns a string representation of the values of this `Dimension` object's `height` and `width` fields. public java.lang.String toString() Returns a string representation of the values of this `Dimension` object's `height` and `width` fields. This method is intended to be used only for debugging purposes, and the content and format of the returned string may vary between implementations. The returned string may be empty but may not be `null`. Overrides: `toString` in class `java.lang.Object` Returns: a string representation of this `Dimension` object
