Introduction

• An app to compare and diff two different parts of the configuration tree, or two different configuration trees that can be loaded from file or the JCR
• Uses a split view to display the trees being compared
• Uses row colors to highlight what one tree has that the other doesn't
• Can quickly create a node or property in one tree that the other tree has but this tree does not
• Can use the existing configuration tree in the JCR or a tree previously exported to XML
• Can pick the root for each tree to begin comparison from
• Can define equivalences between nodes with different names in the two trees to treat them as if they have the same name

• One can easily tell what nodes/properties are still missing and quickly create them
• One can easily tell what modifications one has made on top of the baseline object
• Template business objects can be specifically supplied to make it easy to create new ones
