Package org.eclipse.emf.compare.conflict

Class MatchBasedConflictDetector

java.lang.Object

org.eclipse.emf.compare.conflict.MatchBasedConflictDetector

All Implemented Interfaces:

IConflictDetector

public class MatchBasedConflictDetector
extends java.lang.Object
implements IConflictDetector

This conflict detector searches for conflicting Diffs in the same Match as the current Diff, as well as among ReferenceChanges that reference the same EObject as the current Diff, if it is a ReferenceChange.

This implementation of IConflictDetector is a generic as the default one but scales better since it is not O(n²) but rather O(n) or O(n log(n)), n being the number of differences in the comparison.

Since:

3.3
