Interface IPresentationRepairer

All Known Implementing Classes:
DefaultDamagerRepairer

public interface IPresentationRepairer

A presentation repairer is a strategy used by a presentation reconciler to rebuild a damaged region in a document's presentation. A presentation repairer is assumed to be specific for a particular document content type. The presentation repairer gets the region which it should repair and constructs a "repair description". The presentation repairer merges the steps contained within this description into the text presentation passed into createPresentation.

This interface may be implemented by clients. Alternatively, clients may use the rule-based default implementation DefaultDamagerRepairer. Implementers should be registered with a presentation reconciler in order get involved in the reconciling process.
