44 /**
45 * <p>
46 * IOperationHistory tracks a history of operations that can be undone or
47 * redone. Operations are added to the history once they have been initially
48 * executed. Clients may choose whether to have the operations history perform
49 * the initial execution or to simply add an already-executed operation to the
50 * history.
51 * </p>
52 * <p>
53 * Once operations are added to the history, the methods
54 * {@link #canRedo(IUndoContext)} and {@link #canUndo(IUndoContext)} are used to
55 * determine whether there is an operation available for undo and redo in a
56 * given undo context. The context-based protocol implies that there is only one
57 * operation that can be undone or redone at a given time in a given context.
58 * This is typical of a linear undo model, when only the most recently executed
59 * operation is available for undo. When this protocol is used, a linear model
60 * is enforced by the history.
61 * </p>
62 * <p>
63 * It is up to clients to determine how to maintain a history that is invalid or
64 * stale. For example, when the most recent operation for a context cannot be
65 * performed, clients may wish to dispose the history for that context.
66 * </p>
67 * <p>
68 * Additional protocol allows direct undo and redo of a specified operation,
69 * regardless of its position in the history. When a more flexible undo model is
70 * supported, these methods can be implemented to undo and redo directly
71 * specified operations. If an implementer of IOperationHistory does not allow
72 * direct undo and redo, these methods can return a status indicating that it is
73 * not allowed.
74 * </p>
75 * <p>
76 * Listeners ({@link IOperationHistoryListener}) can listen for notifications
77 * about changes in the history (operations added or removed), and for
78 * notification before and after any operation is executed, undone or redone.
79 * Notification of operation execution only occurs when clients direct the
80 * history to execute the operation. If the operation is added after it is
81 * executed, there can be no notification of its execution.
82 * </p>
83 * <p>
84 * {@link IOperationApprover} defines an interface for approving an undo or redo
85 * before it occurs. This is useful for injecting policy-decisions into the undo
86 * model - whether direct undo and redo are supported, or warning the user about
87 * certain kinds of operations. It can also be used when clients maintain state
88 * related to an operation and need to determine whether an undo or redo will
89 * cause any conflicts with their local state.
90 * </p>
