Hello, I am not sure if I am missing a setting or if it is a bug/feature that isn't customizable.
So we have an XML document. When I change the xml from:
<item/>
to
<item></item>
Compare it! does not recognize it as a change unless there is text inside of the tag. Without getting into the discussion of how there is no difference between the two, can someone explain why compare it would rewrite <item></item> as <item/>. And, if possible, how to change this?
Sincerely,
Ryan
Comparison of end tags
Yes, CompareIt uses XML reformatter, which does the replacement you describe. In fact this was one of few things I was going to add as an options for XML comparison - and I will add this in future. At the moment you can only disable XML formatting by View>ViewAs>Text, or by turning it off in options.
