[squeak-dev] Differencing ordered sets

[Bergel, Alexandre]

Dear list,

Is there a diff-like mechanism in Squeak? I've heard there is a diff  
tool in Squeak that operates on texts. Anyone has the url?
Although I want to be able to work with any arbitrary ordered sets,  
beginning with texts might be a good start.

Cheers,
Alexandre

Of course. That is how the diff views work in the method version list,  
Monticello changes or merge dialogs, etc.

Open a System Browser. Press Cmd-F or Alt-F to bring up the class  
search dialog. Type "diff" (without the quotes). Press return. Select  
the diff builder you want.

Hi Alexandre,

Coincidentally, a couple of weeks back I write some code for
Hunt-McIlroy diff, and a diff3 implementation built on top.

I've just committed it to squeaksource:
http://www.squeaksource.com/DiffMerge.html

To get a quick overview of the API, see the test cases in classes
Diff3Tests and HuntMcilroyDiffTests. I'd like to implement Bram Cohen's
diff algorithm as another subclass of GenericDiff, too.

I've blogged about it:

Regards,
  Tony
