Difference in Return code

[bhavikyshah]

Hi,

I just want to get whether there is the difference between two files or not.
For that I am using "/qc" command also I am passing Regex data and in some cases, I am not passing Regex data.

So below is the result which I am getting.

Note: Both files are different

Without regex data

1. /qc & Without Regex :- 13 //Rules-based differences
2. /qc=size & Without Regex :- 11 //Binary differences
3. /qc=crc & Without Regex :- 11 //Binary differences
4. /qc=binary & Without Regex :- 11 //Binary differences

With regex data

1. /qc & With Regex :- 13 //Rules-based differences
2. /qc=size & With Regex :- 11 //Binary differences
3. /qc=crc & With Regex :- 11 //Binary differences
4. /qc=binary & With Regex :- 11 //Binary differences

Is this correct code which I am getting?

Hello,

/qc will run a rules-based scan by default, which will be "13" if different. The other values would return "11" for differences.

What do you mean by "& With RegEx" or without? The command line does not support additional regex declaration here. The full command line should look something like:
bcompare.exe /qc=binary "c:\file1.txt" "c:\file2.txt"
