Eclipse Platform
Release 3.5

org.eclipse.core.filebuffers
Interface ITextFileBuffer

All Superinterfaces:
IFileBuffer

public interface ITextFileBuffer
extends IFileBuffer

A text file buffer is a file buffer for text files. The contents of a text file buffer is given in the form of a document and an associated annotation model. Also, the text file buffer provides methods to manage the character encoding used to read and write the buffer's underlying text file.

Clients are not supposed to implement that interface. Instances of this type are obtained from a ITextFileBufferManager.

Since:
3.0
Restriction:
This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
Restriction:
This interface is not intended to be extended by clients.

Method Summary
  IAnnotationModel getAnnotationModel ()
          Returns the annotation model of this text file buffer.
  IDocument getDocument ()
          Returns the document of this text file buffer.
  String getEncoding ()
          Returns the character encoding to be used for reading and writing the buffer's underlying file.
 void setEncoding ( String encoding)
          Sets the character encoding to be used for reading and writing the buffer's underlying file.

Method Detail

getDocument


IDocument getDocument()
Returns the document of this text file buffer.

Returns:
the document of this text file buffer

getEncoding


String getEncoding()
Returns the character encoding to be used for reading and writing the buffer's underlying file.

Note: The encoding used to write the file might differ from the encoding returned by this method if no encoding has been explicitly set and the content type of the file is derived from the content (e.g. an XML file).

Returns:
the character encoding

setEncoding

void setEncoding(
String encoding)
Sets the character encoding to be used for reading and writing the buffer's underlying file.

Parameters:
encoding - the encoding

getAnnotationModel


IAnnotationModel getAnnotationModel()
Returns the annotation model of this text file buffer.

Returns:
the annotation model of this text file buffer, might be null if called when disconnected
