A specialized implementation of the NodeCombiner interface that performs a merge from two passed in node hierarchies.

This combiner performs the merge using a few rules:

  1. Nodes can be merged when attributes that appear in both have the same value.
  2. Only a single node in the second file is considered a match to the node in the first file.
  3. Attributes in nodes that match are merged.
  4. Nodes in both files that do not match are added to the result.

public class MergeCombiner extends NodeCombiner {
Combines the given nodes to a new union node.
Params:
  • node1 – the first source node
  • node2 – the second source node
Returns:the union node

Handles the attributes during a combination process. First all attributes of the first node will be added to the result. Then all attributes of the second node, which are not contained in the first node, will also be added.
Params:
  • result – the resulting node
  • node1 – the first node
  • node2 – the second node

Tests if the first node can be combined with the second node. A node can only be combined if its attributes are all present in the second node and they all have the same value.
Params:
  • node1 – the first node
  • node2 – the second node
  • child – the child node (of the first node)
Returns:a child of the second node, with which a combination is possible
