/**
 * This interface defines a visual component which may serve text viewers as an
 * annotation presentation area. Implementers of this interface have to define
 * the presentation modus. This can either depend on the connected viewer's view
 * port or not. If the modus is view port dependent the ruler only shows those
 * annotations that are attached to document regions that are visible in the
 * view port. If independent, the presented annotations can also be attached to
 * invisible document regions.
 *
 * This interfaces comprises three contracts:
 * <ul>
 * <li>The vertical ruler retrieves the annotations it presents from an
 *     annotation model.
 * <li>The ruler is a visual component which must be integrated in a hierarchy
 *     of DWT controls.
 * <li>The ruler provides interested clients with mapping and interaction
 *     information. This covers the mapping between coordinates of the ruler's
 *     control and line numbers based on the connected text viewer's document (see
 *     {@link dwtx.jface.text.source.IVerticalRulerInfo}).
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * In order to provide backward compatibility for clients of
 * <code>IVerticalRuler</code>, extension interfaces are used as a means of
 * evolution. The following extension interfaces exist:
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link dwtx.jface.text.source.IVerticalRulerExtension} since
 *     version 2.0 introducing setters for font and mouse button activity location.</li>
 * </ul></p>
 * <p>
 * Clients may implement this interface or use the default implementation
 * provided by {@link dwtx.jface.text.source.CompositeRuler} and
 * {@link dwtx.jface.text.source.VerticalRuler}.</p>
 *
 * @see dwtx.jface.text.source.IVerticalRulerExtension
