public class GapContent
extends GapVector
implements javax.swing.text.AbstractDocument.Content, Serializable

Safe: An implementation of the AbstractDocument.Content interface implemented using a gapped buffer similar to that used by emacs. The underlying storage is a array of unicode characters with a gap somewhere. The gap is moved to the location of changes to take advantage of common behavior where most changes are in the same location. Changes that occur at a gap boundary are generally cheap and moving the gap is generally cheaper than moving the array contents directly to accomodate the change.

The positions tracking change are also generally cheap to maintain. The Position implementations (marks) store the array index and can easily calculate the sequential position from the current gap location. Changes only require update to the the marks between the old and new gap boundaries when the gap is moved, so generally updating the marks is pretty cheap. The marks are stored sorted so they can be located quickly with a binary search. This increases the cost of adding a mark, and decreases the cost of keeping the mark updated.

shiftEnd

protected void shiftEnd(int newSize)
Make the gap bigger, moving any necessary data and updating the appropriate marks

Overrides:
shiftEnd in class GapVector

shiftGap

protected void shiftGap(int newGapStart)
Move the start of the gap to a new location, without changing the size of the gap. This moves the data in the array and updates the marks accordingly.

Overrides:
shiftGapStartDown in class GapVector

shiftGapEndUp

protected void shiftGapEndUp(int newGapEnd)
Adjust the gap end upward. This doesn't move any data, but it does update any marks affected by the boundary change. All marks from the old gap end up to the new gap end are squeezed to the end of the gap (their location has been removed).

Overrides:
shiftGapEndUp in class GapVector

                                     int length)
Returns a Vector containing instances of UndoPosRef for the Positions in the range offset to offset + length. If v is not null the matching Positions are placed in there. The vector with the resulting Positions are returned.

Parameters:

length - the length >= 0
Returns:
the set of instances

updateUndoPositions

protected void updateUndoPositions(Vector positions,

Resets the location for all the UndoPosRef instances in positions.

This is meant for internal usage, and is generally not of interest to subclasses.

Parameters:
positions - the UndoPosRef instances to reset

getArray

protected final Object getArray()
Access to the array. The actual type of the array is known only by the subclass.


getGapStart

protected final int getGapStart()
Access to the start of the gap.


getGapEnd

protected final int getGapEnd()
Access to the end of the gap.


replace

protected void replace(int position,
                       int rmSize,
                       Object addItems,
                       int addSize)
Replace the given logical position in the storage with the given new items. This will move the gap to the area being changed if the gap is not currently located at the change location.

Parameters:
position - the location to make the replacement. This is not the location in the underlying storage array, but the location in the contiguous space being modeled.
rmSize - the number of items to remove
addItems - the new items to place in storage.

close

void close(int position,
           int nItems)
Delete nItems at position. Squeezes any marks within the deleted area to position. This moves the gap to the best place by minimizing it's overall movement. The gap must intersect the target block.


open

int open(int position,
         int nItems)
Make space for the given number of items at the given location.

Returns:
the location that the caller should fill in

resize

void resize(int nsize)
resize the underlying storage array to the given new size
