in RTC client (Eclipse) we have option to compare snapshots



Unfortunately this only works for streams of one project. Please try that with the below snapshots and you realize that the comparison result is unusable because the top level components have different names in different projects (abc_development versus xyz_development for example)

You can not use the EWM SCM system to compare apples with peas. If there is no SCM based relationship between the items you want to compare, the EWM SCM compare will not work.

You could probably download the snapshots on disc and compare the data on disc e.g. using a 3rd party tool such as Beyond Compare.
