different behaviour: %ENV% in FilePath and FilterPath

[bmerkle]

Hi,

we have a "generic" session file which we feed via Windows Envrionment Variables,e.g. %DEVICE%
to compare different sets of files and directoires.

We can specify File1 and File2, using a EnvironmentVariable as shown below.
Setting this %DEVICE% env variable to A, B etc. enables us to compare different devices with one session file
which is really usefull.

However if we try to use the same meachnisms for the Filter (include/exclude) it does NOT work.
Could you please fix this in ExamDiffPro, as it would really be a very usefull feature, and also the behaviour for the user is much more consistent then ?


[Session]
File1=C:\project\%DEVICE%\orig
File2=C:\project\%DEVICE%\copy

[Direcotory-Comparion]
ExcludeFilterHex=C:\project\%DEVICE%\orig\someFiletoIngore

When I replace the %DEVICE% with the concrete value (A, B), then the filter works, but I would really like to use the more generic version with the environment.

thanks,
Bernhard.

Yes, this will be fixed in the upcoming 4.5.
