Detailed Description

This diff implementation is mainly lifted from the LCS algorithm of the Eclipse project which in turn is based on Myers' "An O(ND) difference algorithm and its variations" (http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/myers86ond.html) with range compression (see Wu et al.

's "An O(NP) Sequence Comparison Algorithm").

This implementation supports an upper bound on the execution time.

Some ideas (and a bit of code) are from analyze.c, from GNU diffutils-2.7, which can be found at: ftp://gnudist.gnu.org/pub/gnu/diffutils/diffutils-2.7.tar.gz

Complexity: O((M + N)D) worst case time, O(M + N + D^2) expected time, O(M + N) space

◆ shiftBoundaries()

DiffEngine::shiftBoundaries	(	array	$lines,
		array &	$changed,
		array	$other_changed
	)

private

Adjust inserts/deletes of identical lines to join changes as much as possible.

We do something when a run of changed lines include a line at one end and has an excluded, identical line at the other. We are free to choose which identical line is included. ‘compareseq’ usually chooses the one at the beginning, but usually it is cleaner to consider the following identical line to be the "change".

This is extracted verbatim from analyze.c (GNU diffutils-2.7).

Parameters

string[]	$lines
string[]	&$changed
string[]	$other_changed
