Interface IDocumentPartitionerExtension2
-
All Known Implementing Classes:
-
DefaultPartitioner,
FastPartitioner,
RuleBasedPartitioner
-
public interface IDocumentPartitionerExtension2
Extension interface for
IDocumentPartitioner
.
Extends the original concept of a document partitioner to answer the position
categories that are used to manage the partitioning information.
This extension also introduces the concept of open and delimited partitions.
A delimited partition has a predefined textual token delimiting its start and
end, while an open partition can fill any space between two delimited
partitions.
An open partition of length zero can occur between two delimited partitions,
thus having the same offset as the following delimited partition. The
document start and end are considered to be delimiters of open partitions,
i.e. there may be a zero-length partition between the document start and a
delimited partition starting at offset 0.

Method Summary
|
ITypedRegion[]
|
computePartitioning
(int offset,
int length,
boolean includeZeroLengthPartitions)
Returns the partitioning of the given range of the connected document. |
String
|
getContentType
(int offset,
boolean preferOpenPartitions)
Returns the content type of the partition containing the given offset in
the connected document. |
String[]
|
getManagingPositionCategories
()
Returns the position categories that this partitioners uses in order to manage
the partitioning information of the documents. |
ITypedRegion
|
getPartition
(int offset,
boolean preferOpenPartitions)
Returns the partition containing the given offset of the connected
document. |
getManagingPositionCategories
String[] getManagingPositionCategories()
- Returns the position categories that this partitioners uses in order to manage
the partitioning information of the documents. Returns
null
if
no position category is used.
-
-
Returns:
- the position categories used to manage partitioning information or
null
getContentType
String getContentType(int offset,
boolean preferOpenPartitions)
- Returns the content type of the partition containing the given offset in
the connected document. There must be a document connected to this
partitioner.
If preferOpenPartitions
is true
,
precedence is given to an open partition ending at offset
over a delimited partition starting at offset
.
This method replaces
IDocumentPartitioner.getContentType(int)
and
behaves like it when prepreferOpenPartitions
is
false
, i.e. precedence is always given to the partition
that does not end at offset
.
-
-
Parameters:
-
offset
- the offset in the connected document -
preferOpenPartitions
- true
if precedence should be
given to a open partition ending at offset
over
a delimited partition starting at offset
-
Returns:
- the content type of the offset's partition
getPartition
ITypedRegion getPartition(int offset,
boolean preferOpenPartitions)
- Returns the partition containing the given offset of the connected
document. There must be a document connected to this partitioner.
If preferOpenPartitions
is true
,
precedence is given to an open partition ending at offset
over a delimited partition starting at offset
.
This method replaces
IDocumentPartitioner.getPartition(int)
and
behaves like it when is false
, i.e. precedence is always given to the partition that does not
end at offset
.
-
-
Parameters:
-
offset
- the offset for which to determine the partition -
preferOpenPartitions
- true
if precedence should be
given to a open partition ending at offset
over
a delimited partition starting at offset
-
Returns:
- the partition containing the offset
computePartitioning
ITypedRegion[] computePartitioning(int offset,
int length,
boolean includeZeroLengthPartitions)
- Returns the partitioning of the given range of the connected document.
There must be a document connected to this partitioner.
If includeZeroLengthPartitions
is true
, a
zero-length partition of an open partition type (usually the default
partition) is included between two delimited partitions. If it is
false
, no zero-length partitions are included.
This method replaces
IDocumentPartitioner.computePartitioning(int, int)
and behaves
like it when includeZeroLengthPartitions
is
false
.
-
-
Parameters:
-
offset
- the offset of the range of interest -
length
- the length of the range of interest -
includeZeroLengthPartitions
- true
if zero-length
partitions should be returned as part of the computed
partitioning
-
Returns:
- the partitioning of the range
