10 Provides support for describing and applying textual document editions.
|
|
|
11 <p>
|
|
|
12 A complex textual edition can be described by a tree of <tt>TextEdit</tt>s. An edit
|
|
|
13 can be applied to an <tt>IDocument</tt> by calling <tt>TextEdit.apply</tt> or by
|
|
|
14 using a <tt>TextEditProcessor</tt>. Applying a text edit can record a reverse edit
|
|
|
15 description that can be used to undo the edition.
|
|
|
16 </p>
|
|
|
17 Use the standard edit kinds to describe the basic document editing operations:
|
|
|
18 <ul>
|
|
|
19 <li><em>replace</em> a document range: <tt>ReplaceEdit</tt></li>
|
|
|
20 <li><em>delete</em> a document range: <tt>DeleteEdit</tt></li>
|
|
|
21 <li><em>insert</em> text: <tt>InsertEdit</tt></li>
|
|
|
22 <li><em>track</em> a range while the document is being modified: <tt>RangeMarker</tt></li>
|
|
|
23 </ul>
|
|
|
24 <p>
|
|
|
25 Other subclasses of <tt>TextEdit</tt> exist for specialized tasks. Use <tt>MultiTextEdit</tt> to
|
|
|
26 compose a complex edit tree, or subclass it to provide a custom edit.
