Statement-level IJavaElementDelta [message #480740]

Hi all.

I have a short question regarding IJavaElementDelta. Is there a way to get
a statement-level delta, i.e. a delta that not only tells me that the
internal definition of a method has changed but even which statements were
added/removed/moved/changed?

Best wishes,
Eric

There is no such fine grained delta.

That's what I feared. Thanks for confirming.

Hi Eric,

Did you happen to figure out a way to do this?

There is no way to get to the statement level using the java model.
You might want to look at the DOM API and compare the tree contents.

Thanks, that's what I thought as well. So I would just have to implement a tree comparison algorithm using the DOM API. I am wondering if its possible to actually extend the IJavaElementDelta to do this. Any thoughts on that? Thanks again!
