Comparing Packages and Elements
Keep the following points in mind when you use the compare tool:
The results of the compare tool are useful only when you compare elements that are of the same type.
When you compare two packages or elements,
Designer opens the compare editor only if there are one or more differences between the items compared. If there are no differences to show,
Designer displays a message to indicate this.
You can only view differences, if any, using the compare editor. For details, see
Working with the Compare Editor. If you want to modify a package, folder or any other element, use the navigator or editor provided for this purpose.
You can only compare packages and assets from the same version of
Integration Server. Comparison of assets across different versions of
Integration Server is not supported. Internal changes in assets from one release to another might result in functionally identical assets being reported as different.
