/**
 * The <code>GradientPaint</code> class provides a way to fill 
 * a {@link Shape} with a linear color gradient pattern.
 * If {@link Point} P1 with {@link Color} C1 and <code>Point</code> P2 with
 * <code>Color</code> C2 are specified in user space, the
 * <code>Color</code> on the P1, P2 connecting line is proportionally
 * changed from C1 to C2.  Any point P not on the extended P1, P2
 * connecting line has the color of the point P' that is the perpendicular
 * projection of P on the extended P1, P2 connecting line.
 * Points on the extended line outside of the P1, P2 segment can be colored
 * in one of two ways.
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * If the gradient is cyclic then the points on the extended P1, P2
 * connecting line cycle back and forth between the colors C1 and C2.
 * <li>
 * If the gradient is acyclic then points on the P1 side of the segment
 * have the constant <code>Color</code> C1 while points on the P2 side
 * have the constant <code>Color</code> C2.
 * </ul>
