Calculating corner points for rotated rectangle
I have a Rectangle object and I am trying to calculate where its four corner points would be if I were to rotate it counter-clockwise 45 degrees around its center. Any ideas on an easy way to do this?

This seems like a very good idea but I can't seem to quite get it to work. AffineTransform's createTransformedShape method doesn't return a Polygon but a GeneralPath and I haven't yet figured out how to get the corner points out of that. Any ideas?

I was finally able to use the PathIterator to get the corner points. Thanks for the help.
Glad to help. Sorry I didn't get back to you on the PathIterator bit; I was going to when I got home, then fell asleep when I got back from work. ^^;
