Description Vitezslav Stejskal 2008-11-06 13:19:17 UTC 
The infrastructure has to support tasks that compute a diff of changes that can later be applied to sources. A typical
usecase is refactoring when a refactoring task collects changes that has to be done in potentially multiple sources and
returns these changes in some form to the caller, which can than preview the changes and eventually commit them (ie
apply them to the sources).
Comment 1 Dusan Balek 2008-11-14 14:57:57 UTC 
For now, I have modified the existing Java infrastructure support for modifications (WorkingCopy and ModificationResult)
to work over the new Parsing API. We could generalize ModificationResult later if some other languages implement their
supports for modifications.

LATER also this resolution can't be used for bugs with P1,P2 priority
Comment 3 Dusan Balek 2008-12-05 10:54:19 UTC
