  • Field Details

    • RETURN_ACCEPT_DIFFERENCE

      static final int RETURN_ACCEPT_DIFFERENCE
      Standard return value for the differenceFound method. Indicates that the Difference is interpreted as defined in DifferenceConstants.
      See Also:

    • RETURN_IGNORE_DIFFERENCE_NODES_IDENTICAL

      static final int RETURN_IGNORE_DIFFERENCE_NODES_IDENTICAL
      Override return value for the differenceFound method. Indicates that the nodes identified as being different should be interpreted as being identical.
      See Also:

    • RETURN_IGNORE_DIFFERENCE_NODES_SIMILAR

      static final int RETURN_IGNORE_DIFFERENCE_NODES_SIMILAR
      Override return value for the differenceFound method. Indicates that the nodes identified as being different should be interpreted as being similar.
      See Also:

    • RETURN_UPGRADE_DIFFERENCE_NODES_DIFFERENT

      static final int RETURN_UPGRADE_DIFFERENCE_NODES_DIFFERENT
      Override return value for the differenceFound method. Indicates that the nodes identified as being similar should be interpreted as being different.

  • Method Details

    • differenceFound

      int differenceFound(Difference difference)
      Receive notification that 2 nodes are different.
      Parameters:
      difference - a Difference instance as defined in DifferenceConstants describing the cause of the difference and containing the detail of the nodes that differ
      Returns:
      int one of the RETURN_... constants describing how this difference was interpreted

    • skippedComparison

      void skippedComparison(Node control, Node test)
      Receive notification that a comparison between 2 nodes has been skipped because the node types are not comparable by the DifferenceEngine
      Parameters:
      control - the control node being compared
      test - the test node being compared
