Direct Known Subclasses:

public abstract class AbstractReconciler extends Object implements IReconciler
Abstract implementation of IReconciler. The reconciler listens to input document changes as well as changes of the input document of the text viewer it is installed on. Depending on its configuration it manages the received change notifications in a queue folding neighboring or overlapping changes together. The reconciler processes the dirty regions as a background activity after having waited for further changes for the configured duration of time. A reconciler is started using the install(ITextViewer) method. As a first step initialProcess() is executed in the background. Then, the reconciling thread waits for changes that need to be reconciled. A reconciler can be resumed by calling forceReconciling() independent from the existence of actual changes. This mechanism is for subclasses only. It is the clients responsibility to stop a reconciler using its uninstall() method. Unstopped reconcilers do not free their resources.

It is subclass responsibility to specify how dirty regions are processed.

    getReconcilingStrategy
  • Constructor Details

    • AbstractReconciler

      protected AbstractReconciler()
      Creates a new reconciler without configuring it.
  • Method Details

    • process

      protected abstract void process(DirtyRegion dirtyRegion)
      Processes a dirty region. If the dirty region is null the whole document is consider being dirty. The dirty region is partitioned by the document and each partition is handed over to a reconciling strategy registered for the partition's content type.
      Parameters:
      dirtyRegion - the dirty region to be processed
    • reconcilerDocumentChanged

      protected abstract void reconcilerDocumentChanged(IDocument newDocument)
      Hook called when the document whose contents should be reconciled has been changed, i.e., the input document of the text viewer this reconciler is installed on. Usually, subclasses use this hook to inform all their reconciling strategies about the change.
      Parameters:
      newDocument - the new reconciler document
    • setDelay

      public void setDelay(int delay)
      Tells the reconciler how long it should wait for further text changes before activating the appropriate reconciling strategies.
      Parameters:
      delay - the duration in milliseconds of a change collection period.
    • setIsIncrementalReconciler

      public void setIsIncrementalReconciler(boolean isIncremental)
      Tells the reconciler whether any of the available reconciling strategies is interested in getting detailed dirty region information or just in the fact that the document has been changed. In the second case, the reconciling can not incrementally be pursued.
      Parameters:
      isIncremental - indicates whether this reconciler will be configured with incremental reconciling strategies
      See Also:
    • setIsAllowedToModifyDocument

      public void setIsAllowedToModifyDocument(boolean isAllowedToModify)
      Tells the reconciler whether it is allowed to change the document inside its reconciler thread.

      If this is set to false an UnsupportedOperationException will be thrown when this restriction will be violated.

      Parameters:
      isAllowedToModify - indicates whether this reconciler is allowed to modify the document

      Parameters:
      monitor - the monitor to be used
    • isIncrementalReconciler

      protected boolean isIncrementalReconciler()
      Returns whether any of the reconciling strategies is interested in detailed dirty region information.
      Returns:
      whether this reconciler is incremental
