Enum CompareViewBias

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<CompareViewBias>

oracle.javatools.compare.CompareViewBias

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<CompareViewBias>

public enum CompareViewBias
extends java.lang.Enum<CompareViewBias>

Constants for the bias of a CompareView instance. This value defines whether a CompareView is displaying changes in the second contributor in relation to the first (RIGHT), or vice versa (LEFT). The default bias is RIGHT, meaning that deletions can only ever occur on the left-hand side and additions on the right-hand side. In practice, this is usually the most suitable and intuitive choice of bias.
