Package org.eclipse.text.edits Description
Provides support for describing and applying textual document editions.
A complex textual edition can be described by a tree of TextEdits. An edit
can be applied to an IDocument by calling TextEdit.apply or by
using a TextEditProcessor. Applying a text edit can record a reverse edit
description that can be used to undo the edition.
Use the standard edit kinds to describe the basic document editing operations:
-
replace a document range: ReplaceEdit
-
delete a document range: DeleteEdit
-
insert text: InsertEdit
-
track a range while the document is being modified: RangeMarker
Other subclasses of TextEdit exist for specialized tasks. Use MultiTextEdit to
compose a complex edit tree, or subclass it to provide a custom edit.
