1.7.2 MPLAB X (NetBeans)
MPLAB X (NetBeans) is an open source IDE that has built in differencing functionality (www.microchip.com/mplabx and
http://netbeans.org/).
This demonstration is based on NetBeans v6.5.1 but also applies to MPLAB X beta 7.02. There may be interface or features
changes in other versions of this software. Please refer to the software's documentation for a more detailed and updated
description of the functionality.
Creating a comparison
To compare two files in MPLAB X (NetBeans), one of the files must first be opened. This can be done using the "File->Open
File" menu option.
Once one file is open, right click on the tab with the file name. In this menu there should be a "Diff to..." option that is
available.
This option will open a new file window. In this file window select the file that you want to compare against. Once this file is
selected the two files will sit side by side. On the right hand side of the window there is a difference navigation bar. By
clicking on any of these highlighted sections, it will bring you to the difference in the two files.
