TCI11 — Fix Comment in IntersectionQuery

  • Key: TCI11-13
  • Legacy Issue Number: 17057
  • Status: open  
  • Source: SimVentions ( Mr. Matthew Wilson)
  • Summary:

    Summary:

    The intersection query has a comment that states:

    Intersection is determined by using the Entity's Geometry as an argument to the intersects() method on the Geometry specified by this Query, i.e., this.satisfies( entity ) = this.getGeometry().intersects( entity.getGeometry() )

    This is not possible, however. The entity class has no “Geometry” in its interface. If it were present, the Geometry interface does not provide enough information to evaluate such a query.

    Resolution / Discussion:
    Change the comment to a more general description of the problem space. For example: Intersection is determined by checking whether or not one entity partially overlaps another entity.

    Revised Text:
    Changed text in 7.2.1.5 to read:
    The IntersectionQuery is used to determine if an Entity intersects geometrically with a Geometry. Intersection is determined by checking whether or not one entity partially overlaps another entity
