Colliding with a drawn line

[Lazy Waffle]

Is it possible to check if something collides with a line drawn with the love.graphics.line() function? Here's the code I use to draw the line:

Code: Select all

function draw()
	love.graphics.line(x1,y1,x2,y2)
	love.graphics.circle(1,x1,y1,10)
	love.graphics.circle(1,x2,y2,10)
end

x1, x2, y1, and y2 can be moved by the arrow keys and WASD.

Help would be appreciated

My game doesn't use Box2D physics, would it still work? Or is there an alternative?
