Report of file/directory comparison

sarox · 03. Aug 2011, 03:41 PM

All,

I have 2 folders which contain some text files (actually they are the source files of 2 different release of a project).

I need to generate a report which highlights the differencies between these 2 folders file-by-file.

To highlight differencies normally I use winmerge, but it can't generate sucha kind of report.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Rosario

You could try freefilesync it compares and has an option to export results I have used it to compare and sync .

first of all thanks for the useful suggestion, but maybe I wasn't able to explain my needs.

I would like to compare the "content" of each files contained into 2 different folders (something similar on what winmerge does).
For the comparison winmerge is perfect, but it can't generate a full report.

Ciao,
Rosario

I'm not sure if this will work for you but have you tired CodeCompare?
