Members

See Also: Inherited members from object.

Methods
static WriteUnifiedDiff (Diff, System.IO.TextWriter)
Writes a diff in unified diff format to a TextWriter.
static WriteUnifiedDiff (Diff, System.IO.TextWriter, string, string, int)
Writes a diff in unified diff format to a TextWriter with the give file names and context.
static WriteUnifiedDiff (string, string, System.IO.TextWriter, int, bool, bool)
Writes out a line-by-line diff in unified diff format for the two files, specifying whether the comparison is case-sensitive and whitespace-sensitive.
static WriteUnifiedDiff (string[], string, string[], string, System.IO.TextWriter, int, bool, bool)
Writes out a line-by-line diff in unified diff format for the two documents, specifying whether the comparison is case-sensitive and whitespace-sensitive and the number of context lines.
Member Details
WriteUnifiedDiff
public static void WriteUnifiedDiff (string[] leftLines, string leftName, string[] rightLines, string rightName, System.IO.TextWriter writer, int context, bool caseSensitive, bool compareWhitespace)

Writes out a line-by-line diff in unified diff format for the two documents, specifying whether the comparison is case-sensitive and whitespace-sensitive and the number of context lines.

Parameters

writer
The output TextWriter.
context
The number of context lines to include.
caseSensitive
Whether the comparisons are case-sensitive.
compareWhitespace
Whether the comparison should be aware of changes in whitespace.
Remarks
None.
