  40  * WritableRenderedImage is a common interface for objects which
  41  * contain or can produce image data in the form of Rasters and
  42  * which can be modified and/or written over.  The image
  43  * data may be stored/produced as a single tile or a regular array
  44  * of tiles.
  45  * <p>
  46  * WritableRenderedImage provides notification to other interested
  47  * objects when a tile is checked out for writing (via the
  48  * getWritableTile method) and when the last writer of a particular
  49  * tile relinquishes its access (via a call to releaseWritableTile).
  50  * Additionally, it allows any caller to determine whether any tiles
  51  * are currently checked out (via hasTileWriters), and to obtain a
  52  * list of such tiles (via getWritableTileIndices, in the form of a Vector
  53  * of Point objects).
  54  * <p>
  55  * Objects wishing to be notified of changes in tile writability must
  56  * implement the TileObserver interface, and are added by a
  57  * call to addTileObserver.  Multiple calls to
  58  * addTileObserver for the same object will result in multiple
  59  * notifications.  An existing observer may reduce its notifications
  60  * by calling removeTileObserver; if the observer had no
  61  * notifications the operation is a no-op.
  62  * <p>
  63  * It is necessary for a WritableRenderedImage to ensure that
  64  * notifications occur only when the first writer acquires a tile and
  65  * the last writer releases it.
