Eclipse - quicker "compare with each other" -
i using eclipse kepler , want to:
- quickly compare 2 files (key binding great)
- ...with identical names
- ...in different projects
- ...within same workspace
now, process know consists in:
- selecting both files in file explorer
right-clicking 1 of them"compare with...""each other"
(see here).
this works fine, of course.
however, it's incredibly tedious when you're dealing large projects - scroll , down package list until find right files.
it helps link editor file explorer, , ctrl-shift-r both files before, package trees open , 1 of file's selected, that's not quick enough.
i tried "select" files ctrl-shift-clicking tabs in editor, hoping select both in file explorer, no luck.
is there feature or workaround don't know about, speed up?
if files have same name, search files (search -> file...). leave 'containing text' blank , specify (part of) name of files. both files appear in search view can select , right-click them , select compare -> each other.
not sure whether fast you'd be, faster manually looking files in package explorer view.
