File comparison and merge tool

could you please tell me a nice (free if possible!) file comparison tool for the mac.
I currently use Beyond Compare (http://www.scootersoftware.com/) or WinMerge (http://winmerge.org/) on XP
thanks in advance
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

You could get out your original DVD that came with your computer and install the developer tools that Apple provides.
Once installed, you can open /Developer/Applications/Utilities/FileCompare.app
This is free and useful.
If you cant find your original DVD you can get if from developer.apple.com

Diff and Merge tools

Anyone care to recommend a free diff and merge tool?
I dl-ed compareandmerge which works nice, but is a limited trial.
I know there are a ton of diff tools out there but if anyone thinks theirs is particularly good, I'd appreciate hearing about it.
TIA.

I like ExamDiff for Windows. It was free last time I downloaded it, but I haven't looked in a while.
I don't know of any good merge tools, streamy. I'll have to crib what comes back from others.

BPM Split and Merge

Hi...
I want to do scenario like file split and merge using BPM.
for that i have used,
1.Receive
2.Transformation(1:N)
3.Block(ForEach)
4.Control
5.EndBlock
6.Transformation(N:1)
7.Send.
while executing the scenario, the message is going to the queue. In that it is showing the status as "Running".
can you please tell if i did wrong in my scenario?

> 1.Receive
> 2.Transformation(1:N)
> 3.Block(ForEach)
> 4.Control
> 5.EndBlock
> 6.Transformation(N:1)
> 7.Send.
U are using an empty infinite block and hence it is in running state always. You dont need a block at all. after 1:n transformation, use the n:1 transformation and send. I know you must be doing a sample scenario. In reality you will have a send step usually for sending to another system line by line. That when you will need a block.

Alternate Search and Replace Tool

I need to automatically search a piece of HTML code in
hundreds of help topics. Unfortunately, since RoboHelp's
"Multi-File Find and Replace" tool doesn't accept carriage returns,
it won't accept the three-line string of HTML I need to replace.
Can anyone suggest a (hopefully free) third-party
search-and-replace tool that won't break RoboHelp in some way? I'm
a bit worried because I'll be pasting a ton of conditional text
markers.

Hi, Adam,
Two find-and-replace tools that are often mentioned in these
forums are FAR and BK ReplaceEM. FAR is shareware, but free to use
for the first two months; BK ReplaceEM is freeware.

Indesign File comparison tool

Hello, is there any tool available for indesign files that makes a precise comparison between two indesign documents? I need this for making sure of corrections made in documents i have. Idealy it would work as a search function and enable the comparison of two different documents and highight any changes made between the two. Thanks very much--c

Doesn't this approach only focus on errors?
I am not familiar with Preflight, but when I run it I only get errors.
I struggle with the same comparison issue. I need highly detailed comparisons.
When I try this in Acrobat Pro comparing the PDF outputs of two different InDesign files, it pretty much marks the entire document as changed.
I end up using a 3rd party tool (Araxis Merge) and doing a binary file comparison, then trying to figure out where in the INDD file the changes are.
Cheers.

Convert different types of files and merged them into one pdf

Hi, everyone. I'm girl from China.
There is folder containing severl files of different types, like doc, msg, jpeg etc. And I want to convert and merge them into one pdf following a certain order. I know that PDFmaker can do that nicely, but the problem is that I have like 3000+ fodlders that requires the same work.
I want to do it with VBA and Acrobat. I have a Acrobat XI Standard Version and a perfect license, by the way
And I have got the code(Thanks, Karl Heinz Kremer) of merging two pdfs into one, but how can I convert them into pdf first?
Thank you very much.
If I can finish this, I would like to publish my code on this forum.

Wow, that's great news. But how should I add the Action?
1. There is no action named "Covert files into Pdf" in the tools panel....
And if I write Javascript code to do this action. How should I write it?
app.openDoc({
cPath: "/c/temp/myPic.jpg",
bUseConv: true
These code only works when I specify the path of the file.
If you know how, pls tell me..........

FC /B [drive1:][path1]filename1 [drive2:][path2]filename2
/A         Displays only first and last lines for each set of differences.
/B         Performs a binary comparison.
/C         Disregards the case of letters.
/L         Compares files as ASCII text.
/LBn       Sets the maximum consecutive mismatches to the specified
             number of lines.
/N         Displays the line numbers on an ASCII comparison.
/OFF[LINE] Do not skip files with offline attribute set.
/T         Does not expand tabs to spaces.
/U         Compare files as UNICODE text files.
/W         Compresses white space (tabs and spaces) for comparison.
/nnnn      Specifies the number of consecutive lines that must match
             after a mismatch.

Problems about How to Merge the Masthead and the Tool Area?

I have been struggling for many weeks about how to add the ToolArea into the Masthead. Can someone please help me?
I followed with the tutorial :[How to Merge the Masthead and the Tool Area|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f058ef9c-b211-2a10-4fad-8b88d5a1fe74?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true]
I followed every steps mentioned in the tutorial but end up with these:
1. In this tutorial there is a word:Just before the link table is ended, add another row for the tool area. Unfortunately I am not familiar with JSP so can anybody please tell me the accurate inserting location of this code.
2. Besides I find there are some faults in this tutorial and It is non't very complete.
    For example the author have non't refer to two jar:
    I have copyed the (com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead_core.jar, com.sap.portal.navigation.toolarea_core.jar).from the     standard par files and paste these JAR files in the PORTAL-INF / lib folder in the NWDS.
   who can tell me there are additional faults or complements about this tutorial?
Please suggest.

Unable to add File Server Resource Manager Tools on Windows Server 2012 - Errors on restart and roll back install

Unable to install Windows Server 2012 Feature - [Tools] File Server Resource Manager Tools.
Installs, however when I restart the server error messages appears saying feature unable to install, windows reverting changes.
In the Setup event logs have the following information message "Update FSRM-Infrastructure of package FSRM-All failed to be turned on. Status: 0x800f0922"
Does anyone have any idea's on why this Feature can not be installed ??
Scott

Hi Shaun
Tried both of your suggestions, however neither strategy worked.
Strategy 1
Tried installing via powershell - "install-windowsfeature -name fs-resource-manager -includemanagementtools"
Feature un-installed itself during the restart.
Attempted to use the command "DISM /online /remove-feature /featurename:FSRM-Infrastructure-Services". However
this did work because one the Service was'nt installed or two because there was no command option for "/remove-feature"
PACKAGE SERVICING COMMANDS:
/Add-Package - Adds packages to the image.
/Remove-Package - Removes packages from the image.
/Enable-Feature - Enables a specific feature in the image.
/Disable-Feature - Disables a specific feature in the image.
/Get-Packages - Displays information about all packages in the image.
/Get-PackageInfo - Displays information about a specific package.
/Get-Features - Displays information about all features in a package.
/Get-FeatureInfo - Displays information about a specific feature.
/Cleanup-Image - Performs cleanup and recovery operations on the image.
Strategy 2
Tried installing via powershell, using the following command DISM
/online /enable-feature /featurename:FSRM-Infrastructure-Services, however got the same result, the install backed out during the restart.
All up back to where I started?

File Server Resource Manager will not load WMI Objects on Windows 8.0/8.1 Preview with Hyper-V and Server Tools Loaded

Hi Folks,
I have a problem getting "File Server Resource Manager" to start properly because WMI objects are not loading??? I don't understand this at all because I am able to access them with other Apps, etc. I have been over my Services list as well but
have not yet discovered which Service turns on/off "File Server Resource Manager". I have looked in Windows\System32\ and I can not find SrmSvc. I found other Srm's there though. I also found the FSRM Snapin which generates the Figure below but I
can not find it in the WMI Browser. I believe the Firewall is OKAY since I have been over that thoroughly. I do have the Server Tools Installed for Windows 8.0 or Windows 8.1 Clients as well as the Windows Updates applied, which is where I got "File Server
Resource Manager" in the first place. I have had WMI and Powershell 3.0 Package, installed since Windows 7 but I run a repair on them anyway.
I have read through "File Server Resource Manager could not load WMI objects on Windows Server 2012
Article ID: 2831687" but since I don't seem to have SrmSvc the solution doesn't help me. I haven't been able to find a similar one for the Windows Client.
If there is anything you could share on this problem I would be much obliged.
Thanks again,
Crysta

How to create and use library JAR files with command-line tools?

Development Tools -> General Questions:
I am trying to figure out how to put utility classes into JAR files and then compile and run applications against those JAR files using the command-line javac, jar, and java tools. I am using jdk1.7.0_17 on Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.7.
I have posted a simple example with one utility class, one console application class, and a Makefile:
http://holgerdanske.com/users/dpchrist/java/examples/jar-20130520-2134.tar.gz
Here is a console session:
2013-05-20 21:39:01 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ cat src/com/example/util/Hello.java
package com.example.util;
public class Hello {
    public static void hello(String arg) {
     System.out.println("hello, " + arg);
2013-05-20 21:39:12 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ cat src/com/example/hello/HelloConsole.java
package com.example.hello;
import static com.example.util.Hello.hello;
public class HelloConsole {
    public static void main(String [] args) {
     hello("world!");
2013-05-20 21:39:21 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ make
rm -f hello
find . -name '*.class' -delete
javac src/com/example/util/Hello.java
javac -cp src src/com/example/hello/HelloConsole.java
echo "java -cp src com.example.hello.HelloConsole" > hello
chmod +x hello
2013-05-20 21:39:28 dpchrist@desktop ~/sandbox/java/jar
$ ./hello
hello, world!I believe I am looking for:
1. Command-line invocation of "jar" to put the utility class bytecode file (Hello.class) into a JAR?
2. Command-line invocation of "javac" to compile the application (HelloConsole.java) against the JAR file?
3. Command-line invocation of "java" to run the application (HelloConsole.class) against the JAR file?
I already know how t compile the utility class file.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
David

I finally figured it out:
1. All name spaces must match -- identifiers, packages, file system, JAR contents, etc..
2. Tools must be invoked from specific working directories with specific option arguments, all according to the project name space.
My key discovery was that if the code says
import com.example.util.Hello;then the JAR must contain
com/example/util/Hello.classand I must invoke the compiler and interpreter with an -classpath argument that is the full path to the JAR file
-classpath ext/com/example/util.jarThe code is here:
http://holgerdanske.com/users/dpchrist/java/examples/jar-20130525-1301.tar.gz
Here is a console session that demonstrates building and running the code two ways:
1. Compiling the utility class into bytecode, compiling the application class against the utility bytecode, and running the application bytecode against the utility bytecode.
2. Putting the (previously compiled) utility bytecode into a JAR and running the application bytecode against the JAR. (Note that recompiling the application against the JAR was unnecessary.)
(If you don't know Make, understand that the working directory is reset to the initial working directory prior to each and every command issued by Make):

Help required for slicing and merging file

Hi,
I am working on p2p downloading application based on Gnutella. Right now i am trying to implement downlaoding one file from many hosts at a time(like limewire does). i am able to connect to multiple host. but dont know how to downlaod and merge file for his purpose.
i know how to download one file from single host. but dont know how to handle file coming from multiple hosts.
if anyone having knowledge, please tell as soon as possble.

Hi.
thanks for the reply. Actually i had something same
in my mind. but unfortunately i am quite week in
serializtion and file stuff. If you could provide me
with code snipet for this, or can just simulate in a
fewer lines of code, it would be a great help for
me...i have too much short time...
i think i really have to study this file
stuff..........You shouldn't use serialization. Just invent a protocol, and "normal" binary data.

Adobe Acrobat, Print multiple files to PDF and merge open files to closed files?

I have Adobe Acrobat XI Professional.
Print to PDF – How can this be done for more than 15 documents at a time? Right now, if I select 16 or more documents, I cannot ‘right click’ and choose ‘print’. Is this a setting issue? If I have many documents I need to print to PDF at once, it would be helpful if there wasn’t this limitation. Background: This needs to be done to PDF files created from Adobe Live Cycle (and possibly from other software) because the files cannot be merged unless they are ‘printed to PDF’ first. I don't know an alternate way to merge these files.
Also, if I have a multi-page PDF open and I need to parse out the pages to different files, is it possible to drag the selected pages out of the open PDF and hover over a closed PDF and have them added to the end of the closed PDF document? I don't know of a way to do this, but I thought I would check to see if anyone else was aware of a simpler way to parse pages from one document into several pre-existing documents without opening each and dragging the files between them.
Thanks!

Thank you for your response...I can do the additional step to combine them, the problem that I have is that the documents need to be in chronological order. If I print them to the pdf printer or export them, either way, windows sorts them and they are no longer chronological. While I can organize them when I combine them there are many times that there way too many that need combined into one pdf, making it a very inefficient and cumbersome process to do. So I was in hopes there was a way to just have the pdf printer create one file instead of one for each document, it would keep them in chronological order. I suppose I could number them on the print to keep them chronological - but when there are 75 or 100 documents it is a bit of a pain to sit there and respond to each document as it is being printed, and then need to do the additional step of combining. My goal in this process is to gain efficiency so thought I would see if anyone knew how to use the pdf printer to create the single file.

Creating pdfs from different file types (.doc,.xls etc) and merging them into a single pdf with book

Hi,
I need to create a pdf from 2 different file formats, for example .doc and .xls file and merge the contents of the two files into a single pdf.Also the final pdf created must contain bookmarks and links. Thanks in advance.
Priyanka

You can do this on the desktop using the Acrobat SDK as a custom plugin.
You can do this on a server with Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator.
