Member Function Documentation

computeDiffs()

Difference[] org.openoffice.xmerge.merger.DiffAlgorithm.computeDiffs	(	Iterator	orgSeq,
		Iterator	modSeq
	)

Returns a Difference array.

This method finds out the difference between two sequences.

Parameters

orgSeq	The original sequence of object.
modSeq	The modified (or changed) sequence to compare against with the original.

Returns

A Difference array.

Implemented in org.openoffice.xmerge.merger.diff.IteratorLCSAlgorithm, and org.openoffice.xmerge.merger.diff.IteratorRowCompare.
