MAK Compare Feature

The MAK Compare feature can perform a three-way compare, and specify an ancestor when comparing files. It can be useful to compare two or more entities for example, comparing a customer modification of a program and a tempfix to the standard version of the same program. In this case, you can compare your customer modified version with the newly issued standard version to determine whether any changes need to be included in your modified version.

To compare entities, it is necessary to have these sources in the Eclipse workspace. A customer modified version can be retrieved to the workplace by using the Get operation to bring it into the MAK Project. MAK also provides you with the option of comparing files that are not associated with the MAK Project in the workplace using the Local node in the MAK Navigator tab.
