Using API to accept and reverse a patch


Daniel Kalman (121) | asked May 01 '11, 11:44 a.m.
Hi I'm working on a testing system that gets a bunch of patches as input automatically accepts them and check how a plugin i wrote is behaving
I need to know if there is an API for accepting patches saving the workspace and then reversing them

Thanks

The Eclipse platform does have API to apply and reverse patches. It is fairly low level but it may still serve your purpose. Have a look at the org.eclipse.compare.patch package in the org.eclipse.compare.core bundle.
