Constructor Detail

DocumentTemplateContext

public DocumentTemplateContext(
TemplateContextType type,
                               
IDocument document,
                               int offset,
                               int length)
Creates a document template context.

Parameters:
type - the context type
document - the document this context applies to
offset - the offset of the document region
length - the length of the document region

DocumentTemplateContext

public DocumentTemplateContext(
TemplateContextType type,
                               
IDocument document,
                               
Position position)
Creates a document template context. The supplied Position will be queried to compute the getStart and getEnd methods, which will therefore answer updated position data if it is registered with the document.

Parameters:
type - the context type
document - the document this context applies to
position - the position describing the area of the document which forms the template context

3.1

public int getCompletionOffset()
Returns the completion offset within the string of the context.

Returns:
the completion offset within the string of the context

setCompletionOffset

protected void setCompletionOffset(int newOffset)
Sets the completion offset.

Parameters:
newOffset - the new completion offset

getCompletionLength

public int getCompletionLength()
Returns the completion length within the string of the context.

Returns:
the completion length within the string of the context

setCompletionLength

protected void setCompletionLength(int newLength)
Sets the completion length.

Parameters:
newLength - the new completion length

getKey

public 
String getKey()
Returns the keyword which triggered template insertion.

Returns:
the keyword which triggered template insertion

getStart

public int getStart()
Returns the beginning offset of the keyword.

Returns:
the beginning offset of the keyword

getEnd

Returns the end offset of the keyword.

Returns:
the end offset of the keyword

canEvaluate

public boolean canEvaluate(
Template template)
Description copied from class: TemplateContext
Tests if the specified template can be evaluated in this context.

Examples are templates defined for a different context (e.g. a javadoc template cannot be evaluated in Java context).

Specified by:
canEvaluate in class TemplateContext
Parameters:
template - the Template to check
Returns:
true if template can be evaluated in this context, false otherwise

evaluate

public 
TemplateBuffer evaluate(
Template template)
                        throws 
BadLocationException,
                               
TemplateException
Description copied from class: TemplateContext

Specified by:
evaluate in class TemplateContext
Parameters:
template - the template to evaluate
Returns:
returns the buffer with the evaluated template or null if the buffer could not be created
Throws:
