Diffing

Comparing two sets of data with each other
The Diffing View
The Diffing View implements a simple byte-to-byte comparison algorithm to allow for easy detection of differences between two sets of binary data.

Diffing

First of all, to diff the content of two providers, two providers must be opened. To compare these two providers with each other now, select the providers in the combo box at the top under Provider A and Provider B. This will open both files next to each other in two new hex editor views.
All bytes that differ from each other between the two providers will now be highlighted.
  • Yellow marked bytes differ from each other in their value.
  • Green marked bytes exist in Provider A but not in Provider B.
  • Red marked bytes exist in Provider B but not in Provider A.

Differences list

The table below the two diffing hex views contains all differences between the two providers listed individually. Clicking on a row will jump to that location and select the region in both hex views.
