Constructor Detail

ElementNameAndAttributeQualifier

public ElementNameAndAttributeQualifier()
No-args constructor: use all attributes from all elements to determine whether elements qualify for comparability

ElementNameAndAttributeQualifier

public ElementNameAndAttributeQualifier(String attrName)
Simple constructor for a single qualifying attribute name

Parameters: attrName the value to use to qualify whether two elements can be compared further for differences

ElementNameAndAttributeQualifier

public ElementNameAndAttributeQualifier(String[] attrNames)
Extended constructor for multiple qualifying attribute names

Parameters: attrNames the array of values to use to qualify whether two elements can be compared further for differences

Method Detail

areAttributesComparable

protected boolean areAttributesComparable(Element control, Element test)
Determine whether the qualifying attributes are present in both elements and if so whether their values are the same

Parameters: control test

Returns: true if all qualifying attributes are present with the same values, false otherwise

qualifyForComparison

public boolean qualifyForComparison(Element control, Element test)
Determine whether two elements qualify for further Difference comparison.

Parameters: differenceEngine the DifferenceEngine instance wanting to determine if the elements are comparable control test

Returns: true if the two elements qualify for further comparison based on both the superclass qualification (namespace URI and non- namespaced tag name), and the presence of qualifying attributes with the same values; false otherwise
