Package javax.ide.model Description

The interfaces and classes implementing an IDE's data model. JSR-198 specifies typical IDE documents that extension writers need to access from their extensions. These documents include:

• Project,
• TextDocument,
• JavaSource, and
• XMLDocument,

This package also provides the framework for introducing new document types. To add custom text or xml documents, extensions writers extend TextDocument or XMLDocument, respectively. To add a new custom document type extension writers extend the Document and declare in their extension manifest how to recognize their new document class.

The DocumentFactory processes the Recognizer information from the extension manifest and uses that information when clients request a document from the factory.
