public class BasicStroke
extends Object
implements Stroke

The BasicStroke class defines a basic set of rendering attributes for the outlines of graphics primitives, which are rendered with a Graphics2D object that has its Stroke attribute set to this BasicStroke. The rendering attributes defined by BasicStroke describe the shape of the mark made by a pen drawn along the outline of a Shape and the decorations applied at the ends and joins of path segments of the Shape. These rendering attributes include:

width

The pen width, measured perpendicularly to the pen trajectory.

end caps

The decoration applied to the ends of unclosed subpaths and dash segments. Subpaths that start and end on the same point are still considered unclosed if they do not have a CLOSE segment. See SEG_CLOSE for more information on the CLOSE segment. The three different decorations are: CAP_BUTT, CAP_ROUND, and CAP_SQUARE.

line joins

The decoration applied at the intersection of two path segments and at the intersection of the endpoints of a subpath that is closed using
