Method Detail

getAffectedFiles

@NotNull
Collection<IFile> getAffectedFiles()

Returns:

collection of files (or folders) which comprise a set of source paths (!) for this DataSource CONTRACT: Minimality: 1. If a 'file' is in the result then 'file.getParent()' could not be among resulting files 2. All the files in the directory could not be there (the parent directory as a whole would be returned instead)
