Refactoring API - how can I handle the preview of a change [message #259963]

Hello,

I'm new here, and I don't know if this is the right place for this
question, but let's go:

I'm developing a plugin with the refactoring API of Eclipse. I can get the
Change Object, but I need to handle the preview because I want to know
witch methods changes with the refactoring. I need this before I do the
refactoring. Anyone know how can I do this?

Thanks,

and sorry for my poor english

If you follow the steps in
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/article.php?file=Article-Unl eashing-the-Power-of-Refactoring/index.html
is that not the kind of preview you are looking for?

Hi Paul,

thanks for the help.

I had already looked this article, but the preview showed in figure 12 is
handled by a internal api. I can't access this preview in my plugin code
(or I don' know how).

I want to make a method that access this preview and return the
differences between the original code and the refactored code. I need this
before the refactoring perform and I'm using the JDT implementation of the
LTK API. (I think this is possible, because this preview showed for the
user)

Can you tell me how I do this?

Thanks

Gustavo

Problem solved,

I got the object CompilationUnitChange from the object Change. This object
has the method getPreviewContent().

Thanks for the attention.
