Class CopyCommand

org.eclipse.emf.common.command.AbstractCommand

org.eclipse.emf.common.command.CompoundCommand

org.eclipse.emf.common.command.StrictCompoundCommand

org.eclipse.emf.edit.command.CopyCommand

All Implemented Interfaces:

Command

public class CopyCommand
extends StrictCompoundCommand

The copy command logically acts upon an owner object or collection or owner objects and copies the tree structured implied by the MOF containment hierarchy. The static create methods delegate command creation to EditingDomain.createCommand.

The copy implementation is, at each level, delegated to CreateCopyCommand and InitializeCopyCommand which can be overridden to control the copy's object creation and initialization respectively.

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor and Description
CopyCommand(EditingDomain domain, EObject owner, CopyCommand.Helper copyHelper) This creates and instance in the given domain and for the given owner
CopyCommand(EditingDomain domain, EObject owner, CopyCommand.Helper copyHelper, boolean optimize) This creates and instance in the given domain and for the given owner

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
protected void	addCreateCopyCommands(CompoundCommand compoundCommand, EObject object)
boolean	canExecute() Calls AbstractCommand.prepare(), caches the result in AbstractCommand.isExecutable, and sets AbstractCommand.isPrepared to true; from then on, it will yield the value of isExecutable.
static Command	create(EditingDomain domain, java.util.Collection<?> collection) This creates a command that copies the given collection of objects.
static Command	create(EditingDomain domain, java.lang.Object owner) This creates a command that copies the given object.
void	execute() Calls Command.execute() for each command in the list, but makes sure to call redo for any commands that were previously executed to compute canExecute.
protected boolean	prepare() Returns false if any command on the list returns false for Command.canExecute(), or if some command before the last one can't be undone and hence we can't test all the commands for executability.
java.lang.String	toString() This gives an abbreviated name using this object's own class' name, without package qualification, followed by a space separated list of field:value pairs.

Field Detail

LABEL

protected static final java.lang.String LABEL

This caches the label.

DESCRIPTION

protected static final java.lang.String DESCRIPTION

This caches the description.

domain

protected EditingDomain domain

This keeps track of the domain in which this command is created.

owner

protected EObject owner

This keeps track of the owner in the command parameter from the constructor.

copyHelper

protected CopyCommand.Helper copyHelper

This is a map of objects to their copies

optimize

protected boolean optimize

This controls whether or not to optimize the canExecute (prepare)

Constructor Detail

CopyCommand

public CopyCommand(EditingDomain domain,
           EObject owner,
           CopyCommand.Helper copyHelper)

This creates and instance in the given domain and for the given owner

CopyCommand

public CopyCommand(EditingDomain domain,
           EObject owner,
           CopyCommand.Helper copyHelper,
           boolean optimize)

This creates and instance in the given domain and for the given owner

Method Detail

create

public static Command create(EditingDomain domain,
             java.lang.Object owner)

This creates a command that copies the given object.

create

public static Command create(EditingDomain domain,
             java.util.Collection<?> collection)

This creates a command that copies the given collection of objects. If the collection contains more than one object, then a compound command will be created containing individual copy commands for each object.

prepare

protected boolean prepare()

Description copied from class: StrictCompoundCommand

Returns false if any command on the list returns false for Command.canExecute(), or if some command before the last one can't be undone and hence we can't test all the commands for executability.

Overrides:

prepare in class StrictCompoundCommand

Returns:

whether the command can execute.

canExecute

public boolean canExecute()

Description copied from class: AbstractCommand

Calls AbstractCommand.prepare(), caches the result in AbstractCommand.isExecutable, and sets AbstractCommand.isPrepared to true; from then on, it will yield the value of isExecutable.

Specified by:

canExecute in interface Command

Overrides:

canExecute in class AbstractCommand

Returns:

whether the command can execute.

execute

public void execute()

Description copied from class: StrictCompoundCommand

Calls Command.execute() for each command in the list, but makes sure to call redo for any commands that were previously executed to compute canExecute. In the case that StrictCompoundCommand.isPessimistic is false, only the last command will be executed since the others will have been executed but not undone during StrictCompoundCommand.prepare().

Specified by:

execute in interface Command

Overrides:

execute in class StrictCompoundCommand

addCreateCopyCommands

protected void addCreateCopyCommands(CompoundCommand compoundCommand,
                         EObject object)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

This gives an abbreviated name using this object's own class' name, without package qualification, followed by a space separated list of field:value pairs.

Overrides:

toString in class StrictCompoundCommand

Returns:

string representation.
