Powerful file and directory differencing
In the development world, reconciling multiple versions of files and directories is a daily requirement.

Developers and power users need a tool for identifying differences quickly and easily, so that they can focus on more productive tasks. Imagine being able to compare source code files in an instant and merge changes with a quick the click of your mouse. Imagine visualizing the differences in two versions of a 30 GB directory instantly, then opening and editing different files side-by-side. And imagine being able to synch-up files on your laptop and desktop computers in a matter of seconds. Altova DiffDog 2007 is a very affordable tool that allows you to do all this and more.

Additionally DiffDog 2007 provides XML-aware differencing functionality – a must for developers working with XML.
In keeping with Altova’s reputation for providing robust yet user-friendly developer tools, the DiffDog 2007 interface is as powerful as it’s easy to use.

Intelligent XML differencing

The DiffDog 2007 XML differencing capabilities are completely customizable. For example, you can specify if entities should be resolved, if namespace prefixes, whitespace, CDATA, processing instructions, comments, or the ordering of attributes/child elements should be ignored or not, how to visualize differences, and so on. DiffDog 2007 also allows you to compare XML files in advanced text view or the indispensable grid view popularized by Altova XMLSpy.
