LINKING SOURCE CODE TO RUNNING ELEMENT

摘要

A method includes parsing a text source document to construct a document node tree such that the document node tree includes text offsets indicating the location of the text within the text source document corresponding to each node of the document node tree. The method includes constructing, from the document node tree, a Document Object Model (DOM) and a view node tree that represents the DOM. The constructing of the view node tree includes mapping the view node tree to the document node tree. The method includes providing a running representation of the DOM such that DOM elements of the DOM are linked to the text within the text source document corresponding to the DOM elements via the view node tree and the document node tree.
