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

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 boundry 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 boundries 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.

Constructor Detail

GapContent

public GapContent()
Creates a new GapContent object. Initial size defaults to 10.

GapContent

public GapContent(int initialLength)
Creates a new GapContent object, with the initial size specified. The initial size will not be allowed to go below 2, to give room for the implied break and the gap.
Parameters:
initialLength - the initial size
Method Detail

allocateArray

protected Object allocateArray(int len)
Allocate an array to store items of the type appropriate (which is determined by the subclass).
Overrides:
allocateArray in class javax.swing.text.GapVector

getArrayLength

protected int getArrayLength()
Get the length of the allocated array.
Overrides:
getArrayLength in class javax.swing.text.GapVector

length

public int length()
Returns the length of the content.
Specified by:
length in interface AbstractDocument.Content
Returns:
the length >= 1
See Also:
AbstractDocument.Content.length()

insertString

public UndoableEdit insertString(int where,
                                 String str)
                          throws BadLocationException
Inserts a string into the content.
Specified by:
insertString in interface AbstractDocument.Content
Parameters:
where - the starting position >= 0, < length()
str - the non-null string to insert
Returns:
an UndoableEdit object for undoing
Throws:
BadLocationException - if the specified position is invalid
See Also:
AbstractDocument.Content.insertString(int, java.lang.String)

remove

public UndoableEdit remove(int where,
                           int nitems)
                    throws BadLocationException
Removes part of the content.
Specified by:
remove in interface AbstractDocument.Content
Parameters:
where - the starting position >= 0, where + nitems < length()
nitems - the number of characters to remove >= 0
Returns:
an UndoableEdit object for undoing
Throws:
BadLocationException - if the specified position is invalid
See Also:
AbstractDocument.Content.remove(int, int)

getString

public String getString(int where,
                        int len)
                 throws BadLocationException
Retrieves a portion of the content.
Specified by:
getString in interface AbstractDocument.Content
Parameters:
where - the starting position >= 0
len - the length to retrieve >= 0
Returns:
a string representing the content
Throws:
BadLocationException - if the specified position is invalid
See Also:
AbstractDocument.Content.getString(int, int)

getChars

public void getChars(int where,
                     int len,
                     Segment chars)
              throws BadLocationException
Retrieves a portion of the content. If the desired content spans the gap, we copy the content. If the desired content does not span the gap, the actual store is returned to avoid the copy since it is contiguous.
Specified by:
getChars in interface AbstractDocument.Content
Parameters:
where - the starting position >= 0, where + len <= length()
len - the number of characters to retrieve >= 0
chars - the Segment object to return the characters in

Parameters:
offset - the offset to track >= 0
Returns:
the position
Throws:
BadLocationException - if the specified position is invalid

shiftEnd

protected void shiftEnd(int newSize)
Make the gap bigger, moving any necessary data and updating the appropriate marks
Overrides:
shiftEnd in class javax.swing.text.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.

shiftGap in class javax.swing.text.GapVector

resetMarksAtZero

protected void resetMarksAtZero()
Resets all the marks that have an offset of 0 to have an index of zero as well.

shiftGapStartDown

Overrides:
shiftGapStartDown in class javax.swing.text.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 boundry 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 javax.swing.text.GapVector

getPositionsInRange

protected Vector getPositionsInRange(Vector v,
                                     int offset,
                                     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:
v - the Vector to use, with a new one created on null
offset - the starting offset >= 0
length - the length >= 0
Returns:
the set of instances
