Why no Polygon2D.Double class?

There are java.awt classes for Line2D.Double, Ellipse2D.Double,
CubicCurve2D.Double, etc., but I didn't find an analogous one
for polygons. Is there a good substitute? Thanks.

GeneralPath is a polygon class, and more (as it can also represent
curved edges).

Thanks Chris! Exactly what I was looking for.
