The actual "line" is the inside edge of the OOB border that meets the outer edge of the playing court. This is the OOB line, not the 2" or greater stripe that makes up the OOB portion. If the thrower simply steps on the stripe, he is still OOB. But if he steps on the inner edge of the stripe and inbounds, he has violated.

The simple answer is that if he touches inbounds while he still has contact with the ball, he has violated.
