How are two-element vector represented in a OpenCV Mat in Java?

Question

I was looking at Opencv Java documentation of Hough Transform.

The return value lines is in a Mat data type described as:

Output vector of lines. Each line is represented by a two-element vector (rho, theta). rho is the distance from the coordinate origin (0,0) (top-left corner of the image). theta is the line rotation angle in radians (0 ~ vertical line, pi/2 ~ horizontal line).

Curiously, this description matches the C++ interface's description, but the data type not: in C++ you can use a std::vector<cv::Vec2f> lines as described in this tutorial. In C++ the returned data representation, given the description, is straightforward, but in Java not.

So, in Java, how are the two-element vector represented/stored in the returned Mat?

Here's some code I used a while ago, in version 2.4.8 I think. matLines came from this:

Imgproc.HoughLinesP(matOutline, matLines, 1, Math.PI / 180, houghThreshCurrent, houghMinLength, houghMaxGap);

...

Point[] points = new Point[]{ new Point(), new Point() };
for (int x = 0; x < matLines.cols(); x++) {
   double[] vec = matLines.get(0, x);
   points[0].x = vec[0];
   points[0].y = vec[1];
   points[1].x = vec[2];
   points[1].y = vec[3];
   //...
}

Thanks! I am actually not the one in need, let's see what the author of this question says...

I've taken the liberty to rewrite the loop to avoid unnecessary memory allocation in the loop; for big pictures, this can be a real resource hog.
