Method Detail

getNodeDifference

NodeDifference getNodeDifference(Path aNodePath)

Returns the difference for the specified node, null if there is no difference.

If the specified node is a complex node and not an aggregated list, this method always returns null, since differences are only detected at the simple node level and at the aggregated list level. Additionally, if the specified node is under an aggregated list, this method also always returns null

getNodeDifferences

List<NodeDifference> getNodeDifferences()

Returns a List of NodeDifference.

getNodeDifferencesSize

int getNodeDifferencesSize()

Returns the total number of delta values.

isEmpty

boolean isEmpty()

Description copied from interface: Difference

Returns true if there are no differences.

Specified by:

isEmpty in interface Difference

collectNodeDifferences

void collectNodeDifferences(Collection<? super NodeDifference> aCollection)

Adds node differences to the specified collection.
