public abstract class AbstractMergeableElementList

extends AbstractMergeableElement

Base class that allows for handling merging two element lists.

TODO Refactor and make this extend AbstractMergeableElement which is what this actually is, but with added bits for merging child element lists.

Method Detail

parseRecurringMergeables

protected java.util.Map parseRecurringMergeables(java.lang.String tagName,
                                                 java.util.List compositeKeyList,
                                                 Mergeable parentElement)
                                          throws java.lang.Exception

Parses <component> elements and builds a map keyed basd on the list of composite keys specified.

Parameters:

tagName - Name of the tag that appears multiple times

compositeKeyList - List of element/tag names to be used as composite keys to register recurring Mergeable instances.

Returns:

Map of Mergeable instances keyed on the composite key obtained from getElementNamesForConflictResolution(java.util.List)

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if there was an error parsing and registering Mergeable instances

merge

public void merge(Mergeable me)
           throws MergeException

Description copied from interface: Mergeable

Merges an element of same type.

Specified by:

merge in interface Mergeable

Overrides:

merge in class AbstractMergeableElement

Throws:

MergeException

merge

protected void merge(org.jdom.Element parent,
                     java.util.Map dMap,
                     java.util.Map rMap)
              throws java.lang.Exception

Identifies the conflicting elements in the dominant and recessive Map instance and merges as required.

Parameters:

parent - Element that is parent for the children in the dominant Map instance. Merged content is added to this element.

dMap - Dominant Map keyed by the composite key obtained from getElementNamesForConflictResolution(List)

rMap - Recessive Map keyed by the composite key obtained from getElementNamesForConflictResolution(List)

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if there was an error merging both the maps.

getTagNameForRecurringMergeable

protected abstract java.lang.String getTagNameForRecurringMergeable()

Allows the sub classes to provided a tag name that they expect to recurr within them.

For instance:

• <components> expects <component> to recurr within itself.
• <requirements> expects <requirement> to recurr within itself.

Returns:

tag name of the Mergeable element that occurs multiple times.

getElementNamesForConflictResolution

protected abstract java.util.List getElementNamesForConflictResolution(java.util.List defaultList)

Description copied from class: AbstractMergeableSupport

Sub classes should override if they wish to provide a different combination of composite keys for determining conflicts.

Overrides:

getElementNamesForConflictResolution in class AbstractMergeableSupport
