Ignore Comments in ver 3.4 doesn't work

[stevenpph]

I just installed ver 3.4 and tried enabling "Ignore Comments". I left everything else with the default setting (which means all other check boxes are checked). Now when I compare two directories that contain .h and .cpp files, examdiff crashes (stops responding). If I restart examdiff and uncheck "compare .h, .c files", it will make it thru the directory comparison. But if I now select a .h file pair, the diff results are incorrect. It looks like almost any file with 'double slash' comments will work as an example. Just make two files that contain maybe 10 lines - all comment lines starting with double slashes. Do a comparison with and without "Ignore Comments" checked.

Have you tried the 10/17 build?

I've tried ver 3.2 with ignore
Lines matching regulare expression: /\*.*?\*/
and in ver 3.4 and 3.5 beta with c comments. But the it don't work over multiple lines.
I have two simple files

1. file:
/*
1
*/

2. file:
/*
2
*/

if i compare a single line "/*1*/" to "/*2*/" it works.

Works for me in 3.4 and 3.5. Are you sure that your file extension match the ones in the Options | Compare | Ignore Comments?

OK, my fault. I was thinking that the filter works for all extensions.
