How to ignore newer, orphans files in folder-report

[Aaron]

Hello,

The select command is not necessary for a folder report; only the options:display is used.

Switch to use options:display-mismatches-no-orphans

Also, criteria binary can pick up any changes to the files, even if the changes are not visible text. Please try criteria rules-based

How does this work for you? You can verify the difference between rules-based and binary comparisons using the graphical interface and watching the center column between files (not between folders).

Hi,

I am using below script for folder/subfolders comparision, which should give only summary difference with file names and size(ignore all orphans, newers files)

but below script gives the report with all the files names like
1) Left Side Newer Files
2) Right Side Newer Files
3) Left Side Orphans
4) Right Side Orphans
5) Contents Differ

I want only 5th option - Contents Differ. please provide the script.

criteria binary
filter "*.js;*.xsl;*.aspx"
load C:\Folder1 C:\Folder2\
expand all
select all.diff.files
folder-report layout:summary options:display-mismatches output-to:c:\diffreport3.txt

Thanks,
