*** ** * ** ***

Creates geometric paths, utilizing the `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/Path` class.


The path can be drawn to a Canvas with its own draw() method,
but more graphical control is available if you instead pass
the PathShape to a `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/ShapeDrawable`.

## Public constructors

### PathShape

Added in [API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public PathShape (Path path, 
                float stdWidth, 
                float stdHeight)
```

PathShape constructor.

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `path` | `Path`: a Path that defines the geometric paths for this shape. This value cannot be `null`. <br /> |
| `stdWidth` | `float`: the standard width for the shape. Any changes to the width with resize() will result in a width scaled based on the new width divided by this width. <br /> |
| `stdHeight` | `float`: the standard height for the shape. Any changes to the height with resize() will result in a height scaled based on the new height divided by this height. <br /> |

## Public methods

### clone

Added in [API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public PathShape clone ()
```

Creates and returns a copy of this object. The precise meaning
of "copy" may depend on the class of the object. The general
intent is that, for any object `x`, the expression:
>
> ```
> x.clone() != x
> ```
will be true, and that the expression:
>
> ```
> x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()
> ```
will be `true`, but these are not absolute requirements. While it is typically the case that:
>
> ```
> x.clone().equals(x)
> ```
will be `true`, this is not an absolute requirement.


By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling
`super.clone`. If a class and all of its superclasses (except
`Object`) obey this convention, it will be the case that
`x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()`.


By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent
of this object (which is being cloned). To achieve this independence,
it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned
by `super.clone` before returning it. Typically, this means
copying any mutable objects that comprise the internal "deep structure"
of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these
objects with references to the copies. If a class contains only
primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually
the case that no fields in the object returned by `super.clone`
need to be modified.

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/shapes/PathShape` | a clone of this instance. <br /> |

| Throws ||
|---|---|
| `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/CloneNotSupportedException` |   |

### draw

Added in [API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public void draw (Canvas canvas, 
                Paint paint)
```

Draws this shape into the provided Canvas, with the provided Paint.


Before calling this, you must call `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/drawable/shapes/Shape#resize(float,%20float)`.

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `canvas` | `Canvas`: the Canvas within which this shape should be drawn <br /> |
| `paint` | `Paint`: the Paint object that defines this shape's characteristics <br /> |

### equals

Added in [API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public boolean equals (Object o)
```

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.


The `equals` method implements an equivalence relation
on non-null object references:

- It is *reflexive*: for any non-null reference value `x`, `x.equals(x)` should return `true`.
- It is *symmetric*: for any non-null reference values `x` and `y`, `x.equals(y)` should return `true` if and only if `y.equals(x)` returns `true`.
- It is *transitive*: for any non-null reference values `x`, `y`, and `z`, if `x.equals(y)` returns `true` and `y.equals(z)` returns `true`, then `x.equals(z)` should return `true`.
- It is *consistent*: for any non-null reference values `x` and `y`, multiple invocations of `x.equals(y)` consistently return `true` or consistently return `false`, provided no information used in `equals` comparisons on the objects is modified.
- For any non-null reference value `x`, `x.equals(null)` should return `false`.


An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on
into *equivalence classes*; all the members of an
equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an
equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least
for some purposes.

<br />

| Parameters ||
|---|---|
| `o` | `Object`: the reference object with which to compare. <br /> |

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `boolean` | `true` if this object is the same as the obj argument; `false` otherwise. <br /> |

### hashCode

Added in [API level 1](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)

```
public int hashCode ()
```

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is
supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by
`https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/HashMap`.


The general contract of `hashCode` is:

- Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the `hashCode` method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in `equals` comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
- If two objects are equal according to the `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Object#equals(java.lang.Object)` method, then calling the `hashCode` method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
- It is *not* required that if two objects are unequal according to the `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/lang/Object#equals(java.lang.Object)` method, then calling the `hashCode` method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

<br />

<br />

| Returns ||
|---|---|
| `int` | a hash code value for this object. <br /> |
