Eclipse Platform
Release 3.5

org.eclipse.ltk.core.refactoring
Interface IUndoManager


public interface IUndoManager

An undo manager keeps track of performed changes. Use the method addUndo to add change objects to the undo stack and performUndo and performRedo to undo or redo changes.

This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients. Clients should use the method RefactoringCore.getUndoManager() to access the refactoring undo manager.

As of 3.1 the implementation of the refactoring undo manager is based on the IOperationHistory provided by the org.eclipse.core.commands plug-in.

As of 3.2 clients which need to examine refactorings which have been performed, undone or redone should use IRefactoringHistoryService for enhanced functionality.

Since:
3.0

This interface is not intended to be extended by clients.

Method Detail

addListener

void addListener(
IUndoManagerListener listener)
Adds a listener to the undo manager. Does nothing if the listener is already present.

Parameters:

removeListener

void removeListener(
IUndoManagerListener listener)
Removes the given listener from this undo manager. Does nothing if the listener isn't registered with this undo manager

Parameters:
listener - the listener to be removed

aboutToPerformChange

void aboutToPerformChange(
Change change)
The infrastructure is going to perform the given change. If a client calls this method it must make sure that the corresponding method changePerformed(Change) is called after the change got executed. A typically code snippet looks as follows:
   Change change= ...;
   try {
     undoManager.aboutToPerformChange(change);
     // execute change
   } finally {
     undoManager.changePerformed(change);
   }
 

Parameters:
change - the change to be performed.

changePerformed

void changePerformed(
Change change)
Deprecated. use #changePerformed(Change, boolean) instead

The infrastructure has performed the given change.

Parameters:
change - the change that was performed

changePerformed

void changePerformed(
Change change,
                     boolean successful)
The infrastructure has performed the given change.

change - the change that was performed
successful - true if the change got executed successful; false otherwise.

change - the undo change

anythingToUndo

boolean anythingToUndo()
Returns true if there is anything to undo, otherwise false.

Returns:
true if there is anything to undo, otherwise false

peekUndoName


String peekUndoName()
Returns the name of the top most undo.

Returns:
the top most undo name. Returns null if there aren't any changes to undo.

performUndo

void performUndo(
IValidationCheckResultQuery query,
                 
IProgressMonitor pm)
                 throws 
CoreException
Undo the top most undo change.

Parameters:
