org.eclipse.debug.ui.memory
Interface IRepositionableMemoryRendering

All Superinterfaces:: IAdaptable, IMemoryRendering

All Known Implementing Classes:: org.eclipse.debug.internal.ui.views.memory.renderings.AbstractBaseTableRendering, AbstractTableRendering, AbstractTextRendering

public interface IRepositionableMemoryRendering
extends IMemoryRendering
extends IMemoryRendering

A memory rendering that can be repositioned. Reposition behavior is rendering specific. Typically, reposition means that the rendering should move its cursor/current selection to the given address. However, clients may define its reposition behavior that is suitable for the rendering.

Clients may implement this interface.

Since:: 3.3

Method Summary

BigInteger getSelectedAddress ()
          Returns the currently selected address of this rendering or null if none

MemoryByte[] getSelectedAsBytes ()
          Returns the currently selected content as MemoryByte array.

void goToAddress ( BigInteger address)
          Position the rendering to the given address.
