I need to paint the line which links two points.

I am doing it, in Java. I receive two points as parameters and I have to calculate if the straight line between them, is inside the black figure.

I developed my own solution using the straight line equation, but my results are different than using the “professional” programs (such as GIMP or even MS Paint).

Here is a example of what I want:

But my algorithm does this:

*The green point is out of the figure and this is not possible.

Any ideas? Anyone know which code is been using for this, in “professional” apps?

Thanks!
Daniel.

    It looks like you are truncating instead of rounding to the nearest pixel. Difficult to see on those small black ink splotches. Could you post the code?
