                        boolean ignoreWhitespace)
                 throws IOException

Computes a diff between two files.

Throws:

IOException

diff

public static Diff diff(Reader r1,
                        Reader r2,
                        boolean ignoreWhitespace)
                 throws IOException

Create the differences of the content two streams.

Parameters:

r1 - the first source

r2 - the second source to be compared with the first one.

Throws:

IOException

diff

public static Diff diff(List<String> lines1,
                        List<String> lines2,
                        boolean ignoreWhitespace)

Compares two "files" that are passed in as a list of lines.

toUnifiedDiff

public String toUnifiedDiff(String name1,
                            String name2,
                            Reader r1,

                            int numContextLines)
                     throws IOException

Prints the difference in the unified diff format.

Parameters:

numContextLines - Number of context lines to generate around the diff.

Throws:

IOException

apply

public Reader apply(Reader source)

Parameters:

source - The source stream

Returns:

The patched stream

Throws:

IOException - When reading from the source stream fails
