A remote mapping context provides a model element with a view of the remote state of local resources as they relate to a repository operation that is in progress. A repository provider can pass an instance of this interface to a model element when obtaining a set of traversals for a model element. This allows the model element to query the remote state of a resource in order to determine if there are resources that exist remotely but do not exist locally that should be included in the traversal.

This class may be subclassed by clients.

For three-way comparisons, returns an instance of IStorage in order to allow the caller to access the contents of the base resource that corresponds to the given local resource. The base of a resource is the contents of the resource before any local modifications were made. If the base file does not exist, or if this is a two-way comparison, null is returned. The provided local file handle need not exist locally. A exception is thrown if the corresponding base resource is not a file.

This method may be long running as a server may need to be contacted to obtain the contents of the file.

Params:
  • file – the local file
  • monitor – a progress monitor, or null if progress reporting is not desired
Throws:
Returns:a storage that provides access to the contents of the local resource's corresponding remote resource. If the remote file does not exist, null is returned

For three-way comparisons, this method indicates whether local modifications have been made to the given resource. For two-way comparisons, calling this method has the same effect as calling hasRemoteChange(IResource, IProgressMonitor).

public abstract boolean hasLocalChange(IResource resource, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException;
For two-way comparisons, return whether the contents of the corresponding remote differs from the content of the local file in the context of the current operation. By this we mean that this method will return true if the remote contents differ from the local contents.

For three-way comparisons, return whether the contents of the corresponding remote differ from the contents of the base. In other words, this method returns true if the corresponding remote has changed since the last time the local resource was updated with the remote contents.

For two-way comparisons, return true if the remote contents differ from the local contents. In this case, this method is equivalent to hasLocalChange(IResource, IProgressMonitor)

This can be used by clients to determine if they need to fetch the remote contents in order to determine if the resources that constitute the model element are different in the remote location. If the local file exists and the remote file does not, or the remote file exists and the local does not then the contents will be said to differ (i.e. true is returned). Also, implementors will most likely use a timestamp based comparison to determine if the contents differ. This may lead to a situation where true is returned but the actual contents do not differ. Clients must be prepared handle this situation.

  • resource – the local resource
  • monitor – a progress monitor, or null if progress reporting is not desired
Throws:
Returns:whether the contents of the corresponding remote differ from the base.

Refresh the known remote state for any resources covered by the given traversals. Clients who require the latest remote state should invoke this method before invoking any others of the class. Mappings can use this method as a hint to the context provider of which resources will be required for the mapping to generate the proper set of traversals.

Note that this is really only a hint to the context provider. It is up to implementors to decide, based on the provided traversals, how to efficiently perform the refresh. In the ideal case, calls to hasRemoteChange(IResource, IProgressMonitor) and fetchMembers would not need to contact the server after a call to a refresh with appropriate traversals. Also, ideally, if FILE_CONTENTS_REQUIRED is on of the flags, then the contents for these files will be cached as efficiently as possible so that calls to fetchRemoteContents will also not need to contact the server. This may not be possible for all context providers, so clients cannot assume that the above mentioned methods will not be long running. It is still advisable for clients to call refresh with as much details as possible since, in the case where a provider is optimized, performance will be much better.

Params:
  • traversals – the resource traversals that indicate which resources are to be refreshed
  • flags – additional refresh behavior. For instance, if FILE_CONTENTS_REQUIRED is one of the flags, this indicates that the client will be accessing the contents of the files covered by the traversals. NONE should be used when no additional behavior is required
  • monitor – a progress monitor, or null if progress reporting is not desired
Throws:
  • CoreException – if the refresh fails. Reasons include:
    • The server could not be contacted for some reason.
