Compare SLX files

[Guest]

Is there a easy way to compare 2 slx files for differences?

WJO14,

There is no way (except visually) to compare two SLX files.

But you have a couple workarounds:
- Build each project and save the build logs. Then compare the logs.
- Use Configuration Explorer component of the XPeTools package on www.xpefiles.com (Development Utilities, Main). It will allow
you to save the current SLX in a plain text file as just a list of components. Then you can use WinDiff or similar.

PS. Another approach could be creating a custom CMI script or CMIExplorer script to do the SLX diff. But not knowing CMI it is going
to be a hard way for you.
