Tool/approch to consolidate differences in flow.xml/node.idf file content

[fcctr (fcctr@free-com.at fcctr@free-com.at)]

Hi tech community,

Does an automatic way (Services, Tool,…) exist to update the internal file structure of IS files (flow.xml, node.idf,…) to the newest version?
Background: For comparison on file level (in the context of a VCS), we would need to eliminate changes caused by updates to newer version of IS and by hotfixes done on the productive system, which were later “back-deployed”, etc.

Best regards,
fcctr

Designer provides a way to compare components on different IS instances. Perhaps that will give you what you need?

update the internal file structure of IS files (flow.xml, node.idf,…) to the newest version?

Why? Only if the service does not work would this seem necessary. IME, we’ve never had to “touch” FLOW services due to IS version changes.
