org.autoplot.dom.DomNode

Autoplot's state is stored in a tree of nodes, with Java types constraining to particular abstractions. Each node can have children, and implements:

copy -- make a copy of this node and its children.
syncTo -- make this node look like another node. (e.g. undo to old state). syncTo can also be told to exclude properties.
diffs -- show differences between this and another node.

All nodes have the property "id" which must be unique within the tree. Each node has properties of the following types:

String
double
boolean
Datum
DatumRange
Color
RenderType
PlotSymbol
PsymConnector
Enum
Connector
LegendPosition
AnchorPosition

Any DomNode can be saved and restored using SerializeUtil, which uses Java introspection to look at all the properties. Some nodes currently have the method "setXAutomatically" where X is a property. This is currently used to indicate who is setting the property. For example, PlotElement has setComponentAutomatically for use when a slice is set automatically by the application. This is handled specially in SerializeUtil

copy

copy( ) → DomNode

returns a deep copy of the node.

Returns:

an org.autoplot.dom.DomNode

diffs

diffs( org.autoplot.dom.DomNode that ) → List

return a list of the differences between this and another node. The differences describe how to mutate that node to make it like this node.

Parameters

that - a DomNode

Returns:

a java.util.List

Returns:

java.lang.String

removePropertyChangeListener

removePropertyChangeListener( String propertyName, java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener ) → void

Parameters

propertyName - a String
listener - a PropertyChangeListener

Returns:

void (returns nothing)

removePropertyChangeListener( java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener ) → void

setId

setId( String id ) → void

Parameters

id - a String

Returns:

void (returns nothing)

syncTo

syncTo( org.autoplot.dom.DomNode n ) → void

bulk assignment of properties. When the node's children differ, then a controller should be used to implement the sync. Syncing should include the node's ID.

Parameters

n - a DomNode

Returns:

void (returns nothing)

syncTo( org.autoplot.dom.DomNode n, java.util.List exclude ) → void

toString

toString( ) → String

Returns:

java.lang.String
