Remarks

This is a MEF component part, and should be imported as follows: [Import] ITextDifferencingSelectorService diffService = null;

The methods on this service are guaranteed to never return null. If there isn't a specific ITextDifferencingService registered for the given content type or any of its parent types, a default service will be used, which will use the default IDifferenceService to perform simple textual differencing.

Properties

DefaultTextDifferencingService

Gets the default (fallback) ITextDifferencingService, which performs simple textual differencing.

Methods

GetTextDifferencingService(IContentType)

Get the ITextDifferencingService for the given content type.
