Class Chunk

java.lang.Object
com.betterdiff.core.protocol.command.Chunk
All Implemented Interfaces:
Command
public class Chunk
extends java.lang.Object
implements Command
Chunk of text bounded by a start and an end index in a given text. Every chunk has 4 identification keys: - Ordinal Number - Ordinal number of the given text. @see bdiff.core.pairing.Preparation phase for more information about texts and their ordering and identification - Start Index - Ordinal number of a character in given text where the chunk starts. This character is included in the chunk. - End Index - Ordinal number of a character in given text where the chunk ends. This character is included in the chunk. - Y Axis - When the same given text has multiple chunks then every chunk has a different Y Axis. Axis should be numbered starting with number 1 without gaps. Every white space including new lines (\n, \n\r, \r) are counted as 1 character. *********************************************************************** Note. Start Index and End Index are different from routines like substring. Example: This is a dog. If we split the sentence into words we get 4 chunks: chunk 1-4 (This) chunk 6-7 (is) chunk 9-9 (a) chunk 11-13 (dog) But start and end indexes don't match parameters for substring! ***********************************************************************

    • clone

      public Chunk clone()
      Description copied from interface: Command
      Method for copying commands from generic lists and data structures. Cloning shouldn't use standard Java cloning routines, it should always call its supposed cloning constructor or factory method.
