Class SyncInfo

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.eclipse.team.core.synchronize.SyncInfo
All Implemented Interfaces:
IAdaptable

public class SyncInfo
extends Object
implements IAdaptable

Describes the synchronization of a local resource relative to a remote resource variant. There are two types of comparison: two-way and three-way. The IResourceVariantComparator is used to decide which comparison type to use.

For two-way comparisons, a SyncInfo node has a change type. This will be one of IN-SYNC, ADDITION, DELETION or CHANGE determined in the following manner.

For three-way comparisons, the sync info node has a direction as well as a change type. The direction is one of INCOMING, OUTGOING or CONFLICTING. The comparison of the local and remote resources with a base resource is used to determine the direction of the change.

Again, the comparison of resources is done using the variant comparator provided when the sync info was created.

Since:
3.0

init

public final void init()
                throws TeamException
Method that is invoked after instance creation to initialize the sync kind. This method should only be invoked by the creator of the SyncInfo instance. It is not done from the constructor in order to allow subclasses to calculate the sync kind from any additional state variables they may have.

Throws:
TeamException - if there were problems calculating the sync state.

calculateKind

protected int calculateKind()
                     throws TeamException
Method that is invoked from the init() method to calculate the sync kind for this instance of SyncInfo. The result is assigned to an instance variable and is available using getKind(). Subclasses should not invoke this method but may override it in order to customize the sync kind calculation algorithm.

Returns:
the sync kind of this SyncInfo
Throws:
TeamException - if there were problems calculating the sync state.
