org.apache.directory.scim.tools.diff.PatchGenerator

public class PatchGenerator
extends Object

Generates a diff (i.e. a list of PatchOperations) between two SCIM resources. This class could be used by SCIM clients when they only want to send PATCH requests over the wire (and communicate only the delta between the original and the modified resource). This class can also be used when testing SCIM servers as an easy way to generate a list of PatchOperations.
