  AffineTransform | The `AffineTransform` class represents a 2D affine transform that performs a linear mapping from 2D coordinates to other 2D coordinates that preserves the "straightness" and "parallelness" of lines.
  Dimension2D | The `Dimension2D` class is to encapsulate a width and a height dimension.
  PathIterator | The `PathIterator` interface provides the mechanism for objects that implement the `Shape` interface to return the geometry of their boundary by allowing a caller to retrieve the path of that boundary a segment at a time.
  Point2D | The `Point2D` class defines a point representing a location in `(x,y)` coordinate space.
  Rectangle2D | The `Rectangle2D` class describes a rectangle defined by a location `(x,y)` and dimension `(w x h)`.
  RectangularShape | `RectangularShape` is the base class for a number of `Shape` objects whose geometry is defined by a rectangular frame.

  AffineTransform | The `AffineTransform` class represents a 2D affine transform that performs a linear mapping from 2D coordinates to other 2D coordinates that preserves the "straightness" and "parallelness" of lines.
  Arc2D | `Arc2D` is the abstract superclass for all objects that store a 2D arc defined by a framing rectangle, start angle, angular extent (length of the arc), and a closure type (`OPEN`, `CHORD`, or `PIE`).
  Area | An `Area` object stores and manipulates a resolution-independent description of an enclosed area of 2-dimensional space.
  CubicCurve2D | The `CubicCurve2D` class defines a cubic parametric curve segment in `(x,y)` coordinate space.
  Dimension2D | The `Dimension2D` class is to encapsulate a width and a height dimension.
  Ellipse2D | The `Ellipse2D` class describes an ellipse that is defined by a framing rectangle.
  Line2D | This `Line2D` represents a line segment in `(x,y)` coordinate space.
  NoninvertibleTransformException | The `NoninvertibleTransformException` class represents an exception that is thrown if an operation is performed requiring the inverse of an `AffineTransform` object but the `AffineTransform` is in a non-invertible state.
  Path2D | The `Path2D` class provides a simple, yet flexible shape which represents an arbitrary geometric path.
  Path2D.Float | The `Float` class defines a geometric path with coordinates stored in single precision floating point.
  PathIterator | The `PathIterator` interface provides the mechanism for objects that implement the `Shape` interface to return the geometry of their boundary by allowing a caller to retrieve the path of that boundary a segment at a time.
  Point2D | The `Point2D` class defines a point representing a location in `(x,y)` coordinate space.
  QuadCurve2D | The `QuadCurve2D` class defines a quadratic parametric curve segment in `(x,y)` coordinate space.

  RectangularShape | `RectangularShape` is the base class for a number of `Shape` objects whose geometry is defined by a rectangular frame.
  RoundRectangle2D | The `RoundRectangle2D` class defines a rectangle with rounded corners defined by a location `(x,y)`, a dimension `(w x h)`, and the width and height of an arc with which to round the corners.
