Interface Curve

All Superinterfaces:

GenericCurve, Geometry, OrientableCurve, OrientablePrimitive, Primitive, Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

CurveImpl

public interface Curve
extends OrientableCurve, GenericCurve

The interface defines the access to curve geometries. Curves are made of one or more curve segments.
