Package org.eclipse.text.edits
Provides support for describing and applying textual document editions.
A complex textual edition can be described by a tree of TextEdit
s. An edit
can be applied to an IDocument
by calling TextEdit.apply
or by
using a TextEditProcessor
. Applying a text edit can record a reverse edit
description that can be used to undo the edition.
- replace a document range:
ReplaceEdit
- delete a document range:
DeleteEdit
- insert text:
InsertEdit
- track a range while the document is being modified:
RangeMarker
Other subclasses of TextEdit
exist for specialized tasks. Use MultiTextEdit
to
compose a complex edit tree, or subclass it to provide a custom edit.
