3.4 Folder comparison
Using "Add", a new configuration is generated which can also be adapted.
A copy of the selected comparison configuration is created by clicking "Duplicate".
With "Restore user-specified setting", the changes to the specified comparison configuration
are undone.
Note
The "Restore user-specified setting" button is only active if a user-specified configuration has
been selected the contents of which are no longer the same as the default setting.
In addition to restoring the default setting, this button can also be used to check whether the
contents are identical with those of the default setting.
③
Comparison tab / Filter / Comment
The properties that belong to the selected configuration are stored in this area of the
Configuration dialog; these properties include comparison criteria, filter criteria and a comment.

④
Compare file size
For activated size comparison, the size of the files and folders is considered.
If the checkbox is not activated, a check is only made whether files and folders exist in both
comparison objects.
This option is activated as standard.
⑤
Date of the last change to the file option button
When the date/version comparison is activated, then for this selection, Diff also takes into
account the date that the file was last changed and displays this in either in black or red.
The date is not relevant for folders.
⑥
Date field/version/drop-down list of regular identification expressions option button
SINUMERIK archives can contain cycles.
The cycle version number is specified in the file. When making a comparison, it provides more
information than the date and can be used for the comparison.
In order to be able to compare these version numbers, the files in the first ten lines are checked
for the character string, which is then described using a regular identification expression.
A regular expression that is generally used is already selected in the specified comparison
configuration "SINUMERIK archive".
User-defined regular expressions can also be created in the drop-down list. An introduction to
regular expressions can be found at the end of the document (see Use of regular expressions
in Diff).
⑦
"Additional comparison criteria" checkbox
The content of the files is compared byte-by-byte only when the additional comparison criterion
"Compare binary content of the files" is selected.
