Out of tree comparison
Closed this issue · 0 comments
nikitawootten-nist commented
When comparing documents, sometimes objects move from one part of the document to another. This can be in the form of a promotion (for example, an OSCAL enhancement becoming a full control), demotion (for example, a control being demoted into an enhancement), or a move (for example, a control moving families).
Note that the previous implementation of the matching system did have the capability to perform these "out of tree" matches.
Goals:
- Unmatched controls from an array comparison are collected
- At every level, unmatched controls are matched by their parent control's pointer and compared
- Out of tree matches are consumed properly by the control level comparison documents
Dependencies:
