Enum DiffType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<DiffType>
    public enum DiffType
extends java.lang.Enum<DiffType>
    Describes the various type of file version diffs and related whitespace options available through the relevant content diff, resolve, annotate, etc., methods, corresponding loosely to the "-d" series of options to the p4 command line app.

    The diff types are explained in detail in the main Perforce documentation and will not be detailed here.

      • values

        public static DiffType[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (DiffType c : DiffType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static DiffType valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null

      • toArgString

        public java.lang.String toArgString()
        Return the value in p4 command single character form.
        Returns:
        single-char String representing the diff format as used by the various P4 commands.

      • isWsOption

        public boolean isWsOption()
        Return true if this is a "whitespace option", i.e. one of the -db, -dl, or -dw options.
        Returns:
        true iff this is a whitespace diff option.
