code difference viewer
« on: Mar 19th, 2004, 10:35pm »

I'm stuck in shotgun-debugging mode on a project I'm working on (Flash, actually, don't ask). I have a version from last night that works and one from today which hangs after an arbitrary period of time.
 
What I'd love is to be able to compare code from yesterday with the one from today and get a view of the differences. I just found CSDiff online, it's a free tool. It seems ok.
 
Anyone have a better recommendation?

need to finish getting this guy:

into p5 for the history view..
 
i use codewarrior for visual diffing personally, macosx has a built in visual diff app (i don't recall the name) which seems ok, and there's also windiff for windows.

There's good ol' diff. Not better, but quick and easy.

yeah, I had revisionist in mind as a sort of utopian ideal. managed to find my problem in the end, after hours of plucking at the code I realised the problem was in the data.
 
knew about diff, CSDiff seems based on some of that code. in a way it solved my problem, since I realised that it couldn't possibly be the code.
 
thanks guys!
