Add diff/merge tools
![]()
I want to extend diff/merge Jazz SCM capabilities for a given file extension.
I had a conflit with a binary file and Jazz asked me to choose a merger tool in a list, how can i add my own merge tool ? Thanks in advance. Sbastien Etter Alcatel-Lucent, R&D Effectiveness |

There are two parts to adding a diff/merge tool to Jazz. The first is to add a visual diff and the other a headless merge.
In Jazz we use the Eclipse compare framework, there is doc available at: http://help.eclipse.org/help32/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/overview-summary.html Take a look at the Compare APIs and the Compare examples. Jean-Michel Lemieux Jazz Source Control Team |
![]() I want to extend diff/merge Jazz SCM capabilities for a given file extension. Rational Team Concert 2.0.0.1 now supports custom external diff/merge tools. You can now use your favorite external compare tool. Go to the preferences page under Team > Jazz Source Control > External Compare Tools. You can choose from the predefined list of third party compare tools such as Scooter Software's Beyond Compare or you can specify your own custom setup. |
