Yes, you could do that. Or use View Filter in EDPro to only output non-identical file. The original problem, however, was to related to file, not directory, comparison.

Good catch. We'll have it fixed in the next release.

Use the following regex (remove quotes): "ModificationDate|KeepTogether"

This will work from the GUI. However, the original poster wanted to save such diff-only file from the command line...

ExamDiff Pro currently does not compare against FTP folders. There's a suggestion like this on the wish list, I'll add your vote there. FtpVC, on the other hand, has a recursive mode, in which all subdirectories of a remote directory are visible. After you add all your files to version control, FtpV...

If the stub for one of your remote files no longer exists but the version files are still in the FtpVC directory on the FTP server, history will be restored in a new stub if you use the Attach command.

Version 1.6k of ExamDiff is now available. You can download it at http://www.prestosoft.com/download/ed16k_setup.zip (with installation -- 466 KB) or at http://www.prestosoft.com/download/ed16k.zip (without installation -- 203 KB). Here's what's new in 1.6k: - Option to change margin size - Windows ...

ExamDiff Pro can only match IDENTICAL lines. EDP does not know that it should compare similar lines -- they are similar but not identical. Everything is black and white: either lines are the same, and hence they have to be matched (aligned), or the lines are different, and they don't have to be matc...

Does fail to check out files only or to get them too? What version are you using? Can you export your Project Options and Settings to files and send both files to me?

Thanks for your suggestion. I'll add it to the wish list at http://www.prestosoft.com/ps.asp?page=fvc_suggestions

I thought you meant Unix diff format. No, what you need is not directly possible. You could write, say, a Perl script to process EDPro's output and get what you need.

Yes, it is possible. Use /o option to produce a diff output for 2 files. Use /f option along with /o option to produce a diff report for 2 directories that also includes file diffs.

This usually happen Project Options | Startup | "FtpVC directory (relative to the remote directory)" setting on your colleague's PC is different from yours. Another reason why files don't show action and user information is that "Update status of files after reading directory" op...

1) Actually, it doesn't work the way you described. CRCs are only calculated once per comparison. So if all files are present in both directories, and you use "Consider files with different CRCs different" option, the thread will have nothing to do, and it will end very quickly (after veri...
