Comparing

Rational® Synergy Compare use SiberMerge as the default tool and supports files written in various character encodings. All files involved in a compare must be written using the same file encoding. For example, you cannot compare a file written in Shift-JIS to a file written in UTF-16.

When first run, SiberMerge creates two files, .ccm_merge.enc and .ccm_merge.dat.

The file named .ccm_merge.enc is located in your (UNIX) home or (Windows) profile directory. The file contains a list of file encodings that are offered in the encoding menus. Initially, the list includes all supported encodings; you can shorten the menus by deleting encodings that you do not use.

The file named .ccm_merge.dat is located in your (UNIX) home or (Windows) profile directory. The file contains the set of default compare options, such as whether to ignore spaces, and so on. You can edit this file to modify your default compare options.
