伊莱，你选定的代码是错误的。在线段所在直线附近但远离线段一端的点将被错误地判断为接近线段。更新:上面提到的错误答案已不再被接受。

下面是一些正确的c++代码。它假设一个2d向量类vec2 {float x,y;}，本质上，带有加法、subract、缩放等运算符，以及一个距离和点积函数(即x1 x2 + y1 y2)。

float minimum_distance(vec2 v, vec2 w, vec2 p) {
  // Return minimum distance between line segment vw and point p
  const float l2 = length_squared(v, w);  // i.e. |w-v|^2 -  avoid a sqrt
  if (l2 == 0.0) return distance(p, v);   // v == w case
  // Consider the line extending the segment, parameterized as v + t (w - v).
  // We find projection of point p onto the line. 
  // It falls where t = [(p-v) . (w-v)] / |w-v|^2
  // We clamp t from [0,1] to handle points outside the segment vw.
  const float t = max(0, min(1, dot(p - v, w - v) / l2));
  const vec2 projection = v + t * (w - v);  // Projection falls on the segment
  return distance(p, projection);
}

编辑:我需要一个Javascript实现，所以在这里，没有依赖关系(或注释，但它是一个直接的端口以上)。点被表示为具有x和y属性的对象。

function sqr(x) { return x * x }
function dist2(v, w) { return sqr(v.x - w.x) + sqr(v.y - w.y) }
function distToSegmentSquared(p, v, w) {
  var l2 = dist2(v, w);
  if (l2 == 0) return dist2(p, v);
  var t = ((p.x - v.x) * (w.x - v.x) + (p.y - v.y) * (w.y - v.y)) / l2;
  t = Math.max(0, Math.min(1, t));
  return dist2(p, { x: v.x + t * (w.x - v.x),
                    y: v.y + t * (w.y - v.y) });
}
function distToSegment(p, v, w) { return Math.sqrt(distToSegmentSquared(p, v, w)); }

编辑2:我需要一个Java版本，但更重要的是，我需要3d版本而不是2d版本。

float dist_to_segment_squared(float px, float py, float pz, float lx1, float ly1, float lz1, float lx2, float ly2, float lz2) {
  float line_dist = dist_sq(lx1, ly1, lz1, lx2, ly2, lz2);
  if (line_dist == 0) return dist_sq(px, py, pz, lx1, ly1, lz1);
  float t = ((px - lx1) * (lx2 - lx1) + (py - ly1) * (ly2 - ly1) + (pz - lz1) * (lz2 - lz1)) / line_dist;
  t = constrain(t, 0, 1);
  return dist_sq(px, py, pz, lx1 + t * (lx2 - lx1), ly1 + t * (ly2 - ly1), lz1 + t * (lz2 - lz1));
}

这里，在函数参数中，<px,py,pz>是问题点，线段有端点<lx1,ly1,lz1>和<lx2,ly2,lz2>。函数dist_sq(假定存在)求两点之间距离的平方。

现在我的解决方案...... (Javascript)

这是非常快的，因为我试图避免任何数学。战俘的功能。

如你所见，在函数的最后，我得到了直线的距离。

在f#中，点c到a和b之间的线段的距离为:

let pointToLineSegmentDistance (a: Vector, b: Vector) (c: Vector) =
  let d = b - a
  let s = d.Length
  let lambda = (c - a) * d / s
  let p = (lambda |> max 0.0 |> min s) * d / s
  (a + p - c).Length

向量d沿着线段从a指向b。d/s与c-a的点积给出了无限直线与点c之间最接近点的参数。使用min和max函数将该参数钳制到范围0..s，使该点位于a和b之间。最后，a+p-c的长度是c到线段上最近点的距离。

使用示例:

pointToLineSegmentDistance (Vector(0.0, 0.0), Vector(1.0, 0.0)) (Vector(-1.0, 1.0))

公认的答案行不通 (例如，0,0和(-10,2,10,2)之间的距离应为2)。

下面是工作代码:

   def dist2line2(x,y,line):
     x1,y1,x2,y2=line
     vx = x1 - x
     vy = y1 - y
     ux = x2-x1
     uy = y2-y1
     length = ux * ux + uy * uy
     det = (-vx * ux) + (-vy * uy) #//if this is < 0 or > length then its outside the line segment
     if det < 0:
       return (x1 - x)**2 + (y1 - y)**2
     if det > length:
       return (x2 - x)**2 + (y2 - y)**2
     det = ux * vy - uy * vx
     return det**2 / length
   def dist2line(x,y,line): return math.sqrt(dist2line2(x,y,line))

I'm assuming you want to find the shortest distance between the point and a line segment; to do this, you need to find the line (lineA) which is perpendicular to your line segment (lineB) which goes through your point, determine the intersection between that line (lineA) and your line which goes through your line segment (lineB); if that point is between the two points of your line segment, then the distance is the distance between your point and the point you just found which is the intersection of lineA and lineB; if the point is not between the two points of your line segment, you need to get the distance between your point and the closer of two ends of the line segment; this can be done easily by taking the square distance (to avoid a square root) between the point and the two points of the line segment; whichever is closer, take the square root of that one.
