-/**
- * An <code>IDiffElement</code> is used in the <code>DiffTreeViewer</code>
- * to display the kind of change detected as the result of a two-way or three-way compare.
- * <p>
- * The base interface <code>ITypedElement</code> provides a name, a type, and an image.
- * <code>IDiffElement</code> adds API for maintaining a parent relationship.
- * <p>
- * <code>DiffTreeViewer</code> works on a tree of <code>IDiffElements</code>.
- * Leaf elements must implement the
- * <code>IDiffElement</code> interface, inner nodes the <code>IDiffContainer</code> interface.
- * <p>
- * <code>IDiffElement</code>s are typically created as the result of performing
- * a compare with the <code>Differencer</code>.
- * <p>
- * Clients may implement this interface, or use one of the standard implementations,
- * <code>DiffElement</code>, <code>DiffContainer</code>, or <code>DiffNode</code>.
