The router began as a port of FreeRouting and has grown its own engine
(negotiated congestion, tree nets, exact checks, axis escapes), and
'freeroute' was one letter from the project it no longer follows. The
package, module and command are now rpmroute; the freeroute command stays
as an alias, and the RPMROUTE / RPMROUTE_ORACLE_JAVA variables fall back
to the old FREEROUTE names. Version 2026.10.07. Routing is unchanged: a
PCBench board routes to a byte-identical session either way.
Ports geometry/planar/TileShape.java (the border-line-based containment,
area, and centre-of-gravity logic) and Simplex.java (a convex region as
the intersection of directed half-planes). Corners are exact
intersections of consecutive border lines; point containment uses exact
side_of. The remove_redundant_lines normalization — dropping lines that
do not contribute and detecting emptiness — is ported line-for-line.
Supporting additions: Line.compare_to/__lt__ (angular sort order),
Line.fast_equals, Line.side_of_intersection, Line.translate (perpendicular
offset), IntDirection.determinant, and IntBox.to_simplex.
offset is approximate (rounded translated lines, as upstream); enlarge
clips to the enlarged bounding box pending the IntOctagon port.
Since there is no JVM oracle, tests assert invariants: corners lie
exactly on their border lines (exact side_of == 0), IntBox -> Simplex
preserves the region over a sampled grid, intersection is contained in
both operands and a point is in the result iff in both, and get_instance
normalization drops redundant lines and detects empty half-plane pairs.
