Interface IQuickFixableAnnotation

All Known Implementing Classes:
MarkerAnnotation, SpellingAnnotation

public interface IQuickFixableAnnotation
Allows an annotation to tell whether there are quick fixes for it and to cache that state.

Caching the state is important to improve overall performance as calling IQuickAssistAssistant.canFix(Annotation) can be expensive.

This interface can be implemented by clients.

      void setQuickFixable(boolean state)
      Sets whether there are quick fixes available for this annotation.

      state - true if there are quick fixes available, false otherwise
    • isQuickFixableStateSet

      boolean isQuickFixableStateSet()
      Tells whether the quick fixable state has been set.

      Normally this means setQuickFixable(boolean) has been called at least once but it can also be hard-coded, e.g. always return true.

      Returns:
      true if the state has been set
    • isQuickFixable

      boolean isQuickFixable() throws AssertionFailedException
      Tells whether there are quick fixes for this annotation.

      Note: This method must only be called if isQuickFixableStateSet() returns true.

      Returns:
      true if this annotation offers quick fixes
      Throws:
      AssertionFailedException - if called when isQuickFixableStateSet() is false
