------------------------------------
Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
> TextArea - removed text event, unable to retrieve removed text
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PIVOT-838
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-838
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wtk
> Affects Versions: 2.0.1, 2.0.2
> Reporter: Imbue Lab
> Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.5
>
>
> There is no possibility to get information about text removed from TextArea
> component. In the ParagraphListener there are two methods:
> - void textInserted(Paragraph paragraph, int index, int count) - this one is
> OK, information about inserted text can be retrieved from the paragraph's
> CharSequence (using getCharacters() method), there is everything what is
> needed: index and count
> - void textRemoved(Paragraph paragraph, int index, int count) - here the
> problem begins, paragraph received as parameter has no text that was removed
> because it has been already removed.
> Of course one can make a deep copy of paragraph's characters (every time it
> changed) and search for removed text using previously created copy, but is it
> really too expensive.
> I checked the source and in the TextArea.Paragraph class in the method void
> removeText(int index, int count) there is a line where real text removal
> operation takes place: characters.delete(index, index + count), but removed
> text is not stored or passed to any of the listeners.
