Diffing VCXs

Author: Paul Newton

Posted: 2017-02-01 08:07:07   Link

Hi all

I came across this in response to a message posted by Dominic Burford

Hi Dominic,

you can find an even more sophisticated version of SCCTEXT.prg on the

ProLib FTP archives:

ftp://ftp.prolib.de/public/vfp/mwscctext.prg

This is an adopted version from Markus Winhard (hence the "mw"), which

has all the changes from Mark Wilden plus several other enhancements,

like a much improved speed, a correct sorting of classes and methods,

and more robust working.

However the FTP link does not work (it requires login credentials). However a bit of searching came up with

http://www.dfpug.de/Forum/catbody.afp?!_4U70VHTXU&nsec=10&cname=mwscctext.zip

Unfortunately the Download button on that page will not allow me to save the zip file.

Any ideas/suggestions?

Paul

I right clicked on the link button and "save link as" it then brought up

my fireftp add-on and I could then transfer the file. Confirmed the zip

contains the program.

I can email it to you if you have no joy.

The enhanced SCCTEXT is a VFPx project.

Sorry but... Really? Scctext? in 2017?

Please, there is a much better and newer VFPx project for this since end 2013,

called FoxBin2Prg, which allow converting to PRG-like text all binaries,

and can regenerate the binaries from text (Scctext can't)

You can use it with whichever scc/DVCS tool you want, SourceSafe, git,

Plastic.

Take a look on VFPx and you'll find it on latest updates.

Hi Paul,

If you have a license to Beyond Compare from Scooter Software, you can get an terrific add-on from Frank Perez that

diffs not only VCXs, but any of the VFP source code DBFs and naturally PRGs too. No need to pick up SCCText or any other

binary flattener for straight comparisons. It handles it for you.

Not sure I could do my job without this tool.

Hi Rick:

I did take a look at Frank's converter, and it's not bidirectional, so you

just can "view" converted files to text like Scctext does, but you can't

merge them...

How did you use it in a source control development environment when you

need to merge changes from different developers?

And using the class browser to generate PRG-like files doesn't allow to

Regenerate the binaries from them, so it's a one-way conversion too.
