    public interface Document

    The Document is a container for text that serves as the model for swing text components. The goal for this interface is to scale from very simple needs (a plain text textfield) to complex needs (an HTML or XML document, for example).

    Content

    At the simplest level, text can be modeled as a linear sequence of characters. To support internationalization, the Swing text model uses unicode characters. The sequence of characters displayed in a text component is generally referred to as the component's content.

    To refer to locations within the sequence, the coordinates used are the location between two characters. As the diagram below shows, a location in a text document can be referred to as a position, or an offset. This position is zero-based.

    The following text describes this graphic.

    In the example, if the content of a document is the sequence "The quick brown fox," as shown in the preceding diagram, the location just before the word "The" is 0, and the location after the word "The" and before the whitespace that follows it is 3. The entire sequence of characters in the sequence "The" is called a range.

    The following methods give access to the character data that makes up the content.

    Structure

    Text is rarely represented simply as featureless content. Rather, text typically has some sort of structure associated with it. Exactly what structure is modeled is up to a particular Document implementation. It might be as simple as no structure (i.e. a simple text field), or it might be something like diagram below.

    Diagram shows Book->Chapter->Paragraph

    The unit of structure (i.e. a node of the tree) is referred to by the Element interface. Each Element can be tagged with a set of attributes. These attributes (name/value pairs) are defined by the AttributeSet interface.

    The following methods give access to the document structure.

    Mutations

    All documents need to be able to add and remove simple text. Typically, text is inserted and removed via gestures from a keyboard or a mouse. What effect the insertion or removal has upon the document structure is entirely up to the implementation of the document.

    The following methods are related to mutation of the document content:

    Notification

    Mutations to the Document must be communicated to interested observers. The notification of change follows the event model guidelines that are specified for JavaBeans. In the JavaBeans event model, once an event notification is dispatched, all listeners must be notified before any further mutations occur to the source of the event. Further, order of delivery is not guaranteed.

    Notification is provided as two separate events, DocumentEvent, and UndoableEditEvent. If a mutation is made to a Document through its api, a DocumentEvent will be sent to all of the registered DocumentListeners. If the Document implementation supports undo/redo capabilities, an UndoableEditEvent will be sent to all of the registered UndoableEditListeners. If an undoable edit is undone, a DocumentEvent should be fired from the Document to indicate it has changed again. In this case however, there should be no UndoableEditEvent generated since that edit is actually the source of the change rather than a mutation to the Document made through its api.

    The preceeding text describes this graphic.

    Referring to the above diagram, suppose that the component shown on the left mutates the document object represented by the blue rectangle. The document responds by dispatching a DocumentEvent to both component views and sends an UndoableEditEvent to the listening logic, which maintains a history buffer.

    Now suppose that the component shown on the right mutates the same document. Again, the document dispatches a DocumentEvent to both component views and sends an UndoableEditEvent to the listening logic that is maintaining the history buffer.

    If the history buffer is then rolled back (i.e. the last UndoableEdit undone), a DocumentEvent is sent to both views, causing both of them to reflect the undone mutation to the document (that is, the removal of the right component's mutation). If the history buffer again rolls back another change, another DocumentEvent is sent to both views, causing them to reflect the undone mutation to the document -- that is, the removal of the left component's mutation.

    The methods related to observing mutations to the document are:

    Properties

    Document implementations will generally have some set of properties associated with them at runtime. Two well known properties are the StreamDescriptionProperty, which can be used to describe where the Document came from, and the TitleProperty, which can be used to name the Document. The methods related to the properties are:

    • Field Detail

      • StreamDescriptionProperty

        static final String StreamDescriptionProperty
        The property name for the description of the stream used to initialize the document. This should be used if the document was initialized from a stream and anything is known about the stream.

      • getLength

        int getLength()
        Returns number of characters of content currently in the document.
        Returns:
        number of characters >= 0
      • addUndoableEditListener

        void addUndoableEditListener(UndoableEditListener listener)
        Registers the given observer to begin receiving notifications when undoable edits are made to the document.
        Parameters:
        listener - the observer to register
        See Also:
        UndoableEditEvent
      • removeUndoableEditListener

        void removeUndoableEditListener(UndoableEditListener listener)
        Unregisters the given observer from the notification list so it will no longer receive updates.
        Parameters:
        listener - the observer to register
        See Also:
        UndoableEditEvent
      • getProperty

        Object getProperty(Object key)
        Gets the properties associated with the document.
        Parameters:
        key - a non-null property key
        Returns:
        the properties
        See Also:
        putProperty(Object, Object)
      • remove

        void remove(int offs,
                  int len)
                    throws BadLocationException
        Removes a portion of the content of the document. This will cause a DocumentEvent of type DocumentEvent.EventType.REMOVE to be sent to the registered DocumentListeners, unless an exception is thrown. The notification will be sent to the listeners by calling the removeUpdate method on the DocumentListeners.

        To ensure reasonable behavior in the face of concurrency, the event is dispatched after the mutation has occurred. This means that by the time a notification of removal is dispatched, the document has already been updated and any marks created by createPosition have already changed. For a removal, the end of the removal range is collapsed down to the start of the range, and any marks in the removal range are collapsed down to the start of the range.

        Diagram shows removal of 'quick' from 'The quick brown fox.'

        If the Document structure changed as result of the removal, the details of what Elements were inserted and removed in response to the change will also be contained in the generated DocumentEvent. It is up to the implementation of a Document to decide how the structure should change in response to a remove.

        If the Document supports undo/redo, an UndoableEditEvent will also be generated.

        Parameters:
        offs - the offset from the beginning >= 0
        len - the number of characters to remove >= 0
        Throws:
        BadLocationException - some portion of the removal range was not a valid part of the document. The location in the exception is the first bad position encountered.

      • insertString

        void insertString(int offset,
                        String str,
                        AttributeSet a)
                          throws BadLocationException
        Inserts a string of content. This will cause a DocumentEvent of type DocumentEvent.EventType.INSERT to be sent to the registered DocumentListers, unless an exception is thrown. The DocumentEvent will be delivered by calling the insertUpdate method on the DocumentListener. The offset and length of the generated DocumentEvent will indicate what change was actually made to the Document.

        If the Document structure changed as result of the insertion, the details of what Elements were inserted and removed in response to the change will also be contained in the generated DocumentEvent. It is up to the implementation of a Document to decide how the structure should change in response to an insertion.

        If the Document supports undo/redo, an UndoableEditEvent will also be generated.

        Parameters:
        offset - the offset into the document to insert the content >= 0. All positions that track change at or after the given location will move.
        str - the string to insert
        a - the attributes to associate with the inserted content. This may be null if there are no attributes.
        Throws:
        BadLocationException - the given insert position is not a valid position within the document

      • getText

        String getText(int offset,
                     int length)
                       throws BadLocationException
        Fetches the text contained within the given portion of the document.
        Parameters:
        offset - the offset into the document representing the desired start of the text >= 0
        length - the length of the desired string >= 0
        Returns:
        the text, in a String of length >= 0
        Throws:
        BadLocationException - some portion of the given range was not a valid part of the document. The location in the exception is the first bad position encountered.
      • getText

        void getText(int offset,
                   int length,
                   Segment txt)
                     throws BadLocationException
        Fetches the text contained within the given portion of the document.

        If the partialReturn property on the txt parameter is false, the data returned in the Segment will be the entire length requested and may or may not be a copy depending upon how the data was stored. If the partialReturn property is true, only the amount of text that can be returned without creating a copy is returned. Using partial returns will give better performance for situations where large parts of the document are being scanned. The following is an example of using the partial return to access the entire document:

        
        
           int nleft = doc.getDocumentLength();
           Segment text = new Segment();
           int offs = 0;
           text.setPartialReturn(true);
           while (nleft > 0) {
               doc.getText(offs, nleft, text);
               // do someting with text
               nleft -= text.count;
               offs += text.count;
           }
        
         
        Parameters:
        offset - the offset into the document representing the desired start of the text >= 0
        length - the length of the desired string >= 0
        txt - the Segment object to return the text in
        Throws:
        BadLocationException - Some portion of the given range was not a valid part of the document. The location in the exception is the first bad position encountered.
      • getStartPosition

        Position getStartPosition()
        Returns a position that represents the start of the document. The position returned can be counted on to track change and stay located at the beginning of the document.
        Returns:
        the position
      • getEndPosition

        Position getEndPosition()
        Returns a position that represents the end of the document. The position returned can be counted on to track change and stay located at the end of the document.
        Returns:
        the position
      • createPosition

        Position createPosition(int offs)
                                throws BadLocationException
        This method allows an application to mark a place in a sequence of character content. This mark can then be used to tracks change as insertions and removals are made in the content. The policy is that insertions always occur prior to the current position (the most common case) unless the insertion location is zero, in which case the insertion is forced to a position that follows the original position.
        Parameters:
        offs - the offset from the start of the document >= 0
        Returns:
        the position
        Throws:
        BadLocationException - if the given position does not represent a valid location in the associated document
      • getRootElements

        Element[] getRootElements()
        Returns all of the root elements that are defined.

        Typically there will be only one document structure, but the interface supports building an arbitrary number of structural projections over the text data. The document can have multiple root elements to support multiple document structures. Some examples might be:

        • Text direction.
        • Lexical token streams.
        • Parse trees.
        • Conversions to formats other than the native format.
        • Modification specifications.
        • Annotations.
        Returns:
        the root element
      • getDefaultRootElement

        Element getDefaultRootElement()
        Returns the root element that views should be based upon, unless some other mechanism for assigning views to element structures is provided.
        Returns:
        the root element
      • render

        void render(Runnable r)
        Allows the model to be safely rendered in the presence of concurrency, if the model supports being updated asynchronously. The given runnable will be executed in a way that allows it to safely read the model with no changes while the runnable is being executed. The runnable itself may not make any mutations.
        Parameters:
        r - a Runnable used to render the model
