/**
 * A buffer changed event describes how a buffer has changed. These events are
 * used in <code>IBufferChangedListener</code> notifications.
 * <p>
 * For text insertions, <code>getOffset</code> is the offset of the first
 * inserted character, <code>getText</code> is the inserted text, and
 * <code>getLength</code> is 0.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * For text removals, <code>getOffset</code> is the offset of the first
 * removed character, <code>getText</code> is <code>null</code>, and
 * <code>getLength</code> is the length of the text that was removed.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * For replacements (including <code>IBuffer.setContents</code>),
 * <code>getOffset</code> is the offset of the first replaced character,
 * <code>getText</code> is the replacement text, and <code>getLength</code>
 * is the length of the original text that was replaced.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * When a buffer is closed, <code>getOffset</code> is 0,
 * <code>getLength</code> is 0, and <code>getText</code> is
 * <code>null</code>.
 * </p>

 * This class is not intended to be instantiated or subclassed by clients.
 * Instances of this class are automatically created by the Java model.
