Package org.gjt.sp.jedit.buffer

Interface BufferListener

All Known Implementing Classes:

BufferAdapter, ElasticTabStopBufferListener

public interface BufferListener

A interface for notification of changes to buffer text.

This interface is new in jEdit 4.3pre3. The text area was made independent of the rest of jEdit, and thus this class could no longer depend on org.gjt.sp.jedit.Buffer.

While the BufferUpdate EditBus message is used for general buffer state changes, this interface is used for events which are fired frequently, or for which performance is essential.

Because this interface is subject to change in the future, you should subclass BufferAdapter instead of implementing it directly.

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre3

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre3

contentRemoved

void contentRemoved(JEditBuffer buffer,
                    int startLine,
                    int offset,
                    int numLines,
                    int length)

Called when text is removed from the buffer.

Parameters:

buffer - The buffer in question

startLine - The first line

offset - The start offset, from the beginning of the buffer

numLines - The number of lines removed

length - The number of characters removed

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre3

preContentInserted

void preContentInserted(JEditBuffer buffer,
                        int startLine,
                        int offset,
                        int numLines,
                        int length)

Called when text is about to be inserted in the buffer.

Parameters:

buffer - The buffer in question

startLine - The first line

offset - The start offset, from the beginning of the buffer

numLines - The number of lines inserted

length - The number of characters inserted

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre11

preContentRemoved

void preContentRemoved(JEditBuffer buffer,
                       int startLine,
                       int offset,
                       int numLines,
                       int length)

Called when text is about to be removed from the buffer, but is still present.

Parameters:

buffer - The buffer in question

startLine - The first line

offset - The start offset, from the beginning of the buffer

numLines - The number of lines to be removed

length - The number of characters to be removed

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre3

transactionComplete

void transactionComplete(JEditBuffer buffer)

Called after an undo or compound edit has finished. The text area uses this event to queue up and collapse cleanup operations so they are only run once during a long transaction (such as a "Replace All" operation.)

Parameters:

buffer - The buffer in question

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre3

foldHandlerChanged

void foldHandlerChanged(JEditBuffer buffer)

Called to notify the text area that folds need to be collapsed if the "collapseFolds" property is set. This method is called after the buffer has been loaded, and also if the user changes the fold handler.

Parameters:

buffer - The buffer in question

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre3

bufferLoaded

void bufferLoaded(JEditBuffer buffer)

Called to notify the text area that the buffer has been reloaded.

Parameters:

buffer - The buffer in question

Since:

jEdit 4.3pre3
