Working with Reflector.Diff - Exporting the results
(Page 3 of 4 )
The toolbar’s Export button allows you to export the difference report to XML format. A standard File Save dialog prompts the user for an export location and report type. The report may be saved as either a standard XML report or a verbose XML report. The standard export displays only the changes between the source and destination, while the verbose report includes unchanged items as well.
Selecting your own assemblies
The difference engine easily determines which assemblies to load for the standard Framework assemblies. For custom assemblies, the user is required to find the destination assembly after selecting the source in the Reflector pane.
Clicking the toolbar’s Destination Browse button brings up the Load Assembly dialog (Figure 4-11), which you can use to choose the destination assembly. Cached assemblies are loaded into the list for selection. Alternatively, you can enter a path in the File text box at the bottom of the screen, either manually or by browsing for it using a standard File Open dialog (reached by clicking the “…” button).
Figure 4-11. Selecting assemblies to load
Once you’ve selected a destination, the difference engine will store the match. The next time you try to difference the same source assembly, your last destination will be remembered and loaded automatically.
