Wolczko, <mario@wolczko.com> # by Ned Konz, perl@bike-nomad.com =head1 NAME Algorithm::DiffOld - Compute `intelligent' differences between two files / lists but use the old (<=0.59) interface. =head1 NOTE This has been provided as part of the Algorithm::Diff package by Ned Konz. This particular module is B<ONLY> for people who B<HAVE> to have the old interface, which uses a comparison function rather than a key generating function. Because each of the lines in one array have to be compared with each of the lines in the other array, this does M*N comparisions. This can be very slow. I clocked it at taking 18 times as long as the stock version of Algorithm::Diff for a 4000-line file. It will get worse quadratically as array sizes increase. =head1 SYNOPSIS use Algorithm::DiffOld qw(diff LCS traverse_sequences); @lcs = LCS( \@seq1, \@seq2, $comparison_function ); $lcsref = LCS( \@seq1, \@seq2, $comparison_function ); @diffs = diff( \@seq1, \@seq2, $comparison_function ); traverse_sequences( \@seq1, \@seq2, { MATCH => $callback, DISCARD_A => $callback, DISCARD_B => $callback, }, $comparison_function ); =head1 COMPARISON FUNCTIONS Each of the main routines should be passed a comparison function. If you aren't passing one in, B<use Algorithm::Diff instead>. These functions should return a true value when two items should compare as equal. For instance, @lcs = LCS( \@seq1, \@seq2, sub { my ($a, $b) = @_; $a eq $b } ); but if that is all you're doing with your comparison function, just use Algorithm::Diff and let it do this (this is its default). Or: sub someFunkyComparisonFunction { my ($a, $b) = @_; $a =~ m{$b}; } @diffs = diff( \@lines, \@patterns, \&someFunkyComparisonFunction ); which would allow you to diff an array @lines which consists of text lines with an array @patterns which consists of regular expressions. This is actually the reason I wrote this version -- there is no way to do this with a key generation function as in the stock Algorithm::Diff. =cut # Find the place at which aValue would normally be inserted into the array. If # that place is already occupied by aValue, do nothing, and return undef. If # the place does not exist (i.e., it is off the end of the array), add it to # the end, otherwise replace the element at that point with aValue. # It is assumed that the array's values are numeric. # This is where the bulk (75%) of the time is spent in this module, so try to # make it fast! sub _replaceNextLargerWith { my ( $array, $aValue, $high ) = @_; $high ||= $#$array; # off the end? if ( $high == -1 || $aValue > $array->[ -1 ] ) { push( @$array, $aValue ); return $high + 1; } # binary search for insertion point... my $low = 0; my $index; my $found; while ( $low <= $high ) { $index = ( $high + $low ) / 2; # $index = int(( $high + $low ) / 2); # without 'use integer' $found = $array->[ $index ]; if ( $aValue == $found ) { return undef; } elsif ( $aValue > $found ) { $low = $index + 1; } else { $high = $index - 1; } } # now insertion point is in $low. $array->[ $low ] = $aValue; # overwrite next larger return $low; } # This method computes the longest common subsequence in $a and $b. # Result is array or ref, whose contents is such that # $a->[ $i ] = $b->[ $result[ $i ] ] # foreach $i in ( 0..scalar( @result ) if $result[ $i ] is defined. # An additional argument may be passed; this is a CODE ref to a comparison # routine.
